Summary

Here is the true historical background to the recently discovered James' ossuary (stone tomb) which bears the inscription "Here lies James, the brother of Jesus". Eisenman decodes much of the mis-translation of passages in the Gospels which leads to some extraordinary conclusions. He exposes Peter's true historical role - as a prototypical Essene who is used in the Gospels and the Book of Acts as the mouthpiece for anti-Semitism. He demonstrates that the interpretation of the ritual of the Last Supper that forms the basis of the Christian Holy Communion is essentially un-sound. Jesus never exhorted his followers to drink his blood - the secret of the words is revealed in the last chapter of this book. Eisenman's many readers will not be disappointed.
