Secret Of The Savior The Myth Of The Messiah In Mark Sid Martin by Sid Martin 9780761861454, 0761861459 instant download after payment.

This book solves the greatest mystery of all time: where did the story of Jesus really come from? The Gospel of Mark is the earliest account of Jesus. What if the Gospel is a myth of the messiah? This view would change everything. What is the “secret of the savior”? It is that God is the savior. Jesus is a symbol of salvation and stands for the process of God saving us. Jesus is identified with a series of savior figures from Joshua to David to the Teacher of Righteousness—who founded the Essenes, the ancient Jewish sect who wrote the Dead Sea Scroll—to Rabbi Johanan Ben Zakkai, the founder of Rabbinic Judaism, and many others. The Gospel of Mark is ultimately an ingenious myth about the history of salvation in Israel.Secret of the Saviorunearths the hidden history buried beneath the surface in this world-changing gospel.
Customer Review:
While this is a scholarly work, the book is written in very accessible prose, and presents Martin's hypothesis very simply in the introduction; that the book of Mark (the prototype of all the gospels) was an Essene allegory for the history and salvation of Israel - that Jesus was likely a composite character that represented the events of salvation of the nation of Israel. The purpose of this allegory was to shore up Essene believers in the face of the destructive events in Israel in the First Century C.E.. I was fascinated to learn of the commonality of the allegory in that period of history and in the Greek, Roman and Judaic cultures.
Martin sets about thoroughly explicating the gospel, drawing and justifying the parallels between Mark's story of Jesus and the historic events surrounding the destruction of Israel. Martin's commitment to scholarly objectivity is impressive in his evaluation of the historic scholarship and evidence surrounding the question of Jesus' historicity. Did a real person exist corresponding to the Jesus in the Christian Bible? Though that question is not central to Martin's thesis, this book may have the best assessment you will come across in order to have your answer.
