The New Testament Code The Cup of the Lord the Damascus Covenant and the Blood of Christ
Author: Robert Eisenman

In The New Testament Code: The Cup of the Lord, the Damascus Covenant, and the Blood of Christ world-renowned scholar and bestselling author Robert Eisenman uncovers the Truth and unravels the real code behind New Testament allusions like ?this is the Cup of the New Covenant in my blood? and connects them to ?the New Covenant in the Land of Dama... more »scus? and ?drinking the Cup of the Wrath of God? in the Dead Sea Scrolls. In doing so, Eisenman demonstrates the integral relationship of James the Brother of Jesus to the Righteous Teacher of the Dead Sea Scrolls, deciphers the way the picture of ?Jesus? was put together in the Gospels, and clarifies the real history of Palestine in the first century and, as a consequence, what can be known about the real ?Jesus.? In paring away the traces of Greco-Roman anti-Semitism?which were deliberately introduced into ?this picture? thereby tainting Western history ever since?The New Testament Code shows what really happened in Palestine in that time, not what the enemies of those making war against Rome wanted people to think happened. In making these arguments and exposing these revisions, overwrites, and falsifications that were introduced into the New Testament, Eisenman also explains the esoteric meaning of many of the usages with which we are all so familiar in the Western World. In doing so, he identifies the Scrolls as the literature of ?the Messianic Movement in Palestine? and ?decodes? many well-known and beloved sayings in the Gospels such as, ?Every Plant which My Heavenly Father has not planted shall be uprooted,? ?Do not throw Holy Things to dogs,? ?A man shall not be known by what goes into his mouth but, rather, by what comes out of it,? and ?These are the signs that the Lord did in Cana of Galilee.? Offering a thorough and in-depth, point-by-point analysis of James? relationship to the Dead Sea Scrolls, he illumines such subjects as the ?Pella Flight,? ?the Wilderness Camps,? and Paul as an ?Herodian,? exposing Peter?s true historical role as ?a prototypical Essene,? who was used in the Gospels and the Book of Acts as a mouthpiece for Anti?Semitism, and demonstrating how, once we have found the Historical James, we have found the Historical Jesus. He covers new archaeological discoveries along the Dead Sea, AMS radiocarbon dating of the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the controversial almost miraculous appearance of the ?James Ossuary? (which he considers having been based on his book on James) and the reasons for its being considered a fraud. A crucial new point that emerges in The New Testament Code is the identification of the document known as the MMT as a Letter from James to someone early Church Fathers call the ?Great King of the Peoples beyond the Euphrates.? Readers will not be disappointed. The crowning point of all his arguments will be his exposition of the relationship of ?the New Covenant in the Land of Damascus? in the Dead Sea Scrolls to the ritual of ?the Last Supper;? and ?the Cup? connected to both, to be but a parody?one of the other. The final mysteries of the Dead Sea Scrolls as they relate to Peter, Paul and James will be elucidated. Did Paul know the meaning of the famous Damascus Document, discovered in the Cairo Genizah in 1897, ?to set the Holy Things up according to their precise specifications?? Or the reverse of it, as Peter was presented as discovering it in the Books of Acts?to make ?no distinctions between Holy and profane?? These and many other questions will be revealed in The New Testament Code.
