Deconstruction Q
“The Other Gospel” was a Hebrew Sefer added to the Old Testament and delivered to the Churches by James, Peter, and John.
Source: Deconstruction Q
Question: Why would Flavius Josephus, a practicing Jew, get involved in writing the Gospels.
Paul was a Jew. They were all Jews. Saulus/Paulus was also known as the Gospel writer Matthew. Philo’s method (explained fully in the book) reveals that Josephus was one of Paul’s sons, and Luke was probably his grandson.
The original plan between Gamaliel and Tiberius was to simply add a new story to Hebrew Scripture that would appeal to Israelites, Judeans, and Roman mythologists. Paul didn’t like what it revealed about the Nazarene’s deity, El Shaday, because her name reveals the unacceptable fact that she was “El with Breasts.” So he rejected it. However, he retained a version of the story of “Jesus,” but wrote out Mary Magdalene’s important role as the fulfillment of Micah 4:8 – 5:3. And he placed Jesus in Nazareth so no one would know he was to be associated with the NZR, Joseph, Rach-eL’s son, whose deity was El Shaday, also known as eL Ha eM, “El the Mother” and “El.”
Question: The Orthodox Church did not consider unifying the Gospels until Bishop Marcion rewrote the Gospel According to Luke to expel Jesus’ Jewish blood line.
It was not the “Orthodox Church” I’m reporting on. The Nazarean sect, based on NaZiR and NaZaR traditions beginning with Gen 49:25 in the OT, arrived in 6 CE, at the time of the Census, when “Bar-Jesus” and his twin brother “Judas” were born. I’ll say it again: the Nazarean sect was created to unify Israelites, Judeans, and Roman mythology. The plan was to add Sefer Marcei to the OT, and Jesus and Mary Magdalene were to fulfill the prophesies at Micah 4:8 through 5:3.
Paul refused to agree to having a “Goddess” returned to Judaism. So, he broke away and started his own religion ABOUT Jesus. I’m researching and reporting on what JESUS the Nazarene was actually about. He was a Nazarene, an Israelite. His deity was Father Light and El the Mother, El Shaday. When he wasn’t being “Jesus,” He was a Roman. The book reveals all the identities given to him in order to tell the whole story.
If you start with the premise that Christianity was invented before the Nazarenes were invented, you’ll continue down the path laid out by Paul and the Church Fathers. If you consider that Nazarenes can be traced to the Old Testament, which they can be, then you’ll be able to see what was really going on. Jesus and Mary Magdalene did not arrive in Jerusalem to do away with Hebrew Scripture, which is what Marcion’s Gospel does. Jesus and Mary Magdalene arrived to fulfill Hebrew Scripture, specifically Micah 4:8 – 5:3, and to return the “Goddess” to her position as “Daughter Jerusalem.”
