The Book of Elxai (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169178793)

The Book of Elxai is a historical and religious text written by G.R.S. Mead. The book claims to be a lost text of the Essenes, a Jewish sect that flourished in Palestine from the 2nd century BCE to the 1st century CE. The text is said to have been written by a figure named Elxai, who was believed to be a prophet and healer. The book contains a series of revelations and teachings that Elxai received from angels and other celestial beings. These revelations cover a wide range of topics, including the nature of God, the creation of the universe, the origin of evil, and the coming of a messianic figure. The Book of Elxai has been the subject of much debate among scholars, with some questioning its authenticity and others seeing it as an important source for understanding the beliefs and practices of the Essenes.THIS 28 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Did Jesus Live 100 B.C., by G.
