An eye-opener for anyone who considers him or herself a Christian. It shows how the early Church sprang from the sect Jesus was raised in, the Essenes, who had prepared for generations for His coming.

They followed the true precepts passed down by a chain of "Teachers of Righteousness," culminating in the mission of Jesus.The great practical value this book offers today is a touchstone to rediscover real Christianity, and help distinguish the truth or essence of every faith.
