    The Book of Emet: The TRUE Story of Jesus

    About this ebook

    This is the English translation of the Book of Emet, found in a cave outside of Nazareth in present-day Israel. It dates from 30 to 40 years after the death of Jesus of Nazareth. The author of this book is Jesus’ best friend from childhood, Emet son of Chaim. The Book of Emet tells a significantly different story of the life and death of Jesus than is found in the gospels of the New Testament. Scholars are currently debating its authenticity. In the meantime, it is for you, the reader, to form your own opinion of this book’s likely veracity.

    The full story of the discovery of the Book of Emet and subsequent events will be coming out soon in my book, "Sleeping Truth".

      Foreword

      This is the English translation of the Book of Emet, found in a cave outside of Nazareth in present-day Israel. The book dates from 30 to 40 years after the death of Jesus of Nazareth. It was originally written in Aramaic, the language used at that time in the land of Judea.

      The author of the Book of Emet is Jesus’ best friend from childhood, Emet son of Chaim. The book tells a significantly different story of the life and death of Jesus than is found in the gospels of the New Testament. Scholars are currently debating its authenticity. In the meantime, it is for you, the reader, to form your own opinion of this book’s veracity.

      I have added a short introduction at the beginning of each chapter of the Book of Emet to point out the highlights of that chapter. I have also added New Testament citations where appropriate so the studious reader can make comparisons between the gospels of the New Testament and the Book of Emet. [Mt is Matthew; Mk is Mark; Lk is Luke; and Jn is John.]

      The full story of the discovery of the Book of Emet and subsequent events will be coming out soon in my book, Sleeping Truth.

      Special thanks to my friend Sebria Diane Yocco, my therapist Dr. Elizabeth Feldman and my publicist Deborah Lanore, who were incredibly instrumental in the creation of this book.

      Chapter One: In the Beginning

      Introduction

      This chapter relates the story of the birth of Jesus, his childhood, and his being called to the service of God.

      Mary was without child and prayed to the Lord to grant her a child, and if her prayer was granted, she promised to dedicate the child to the Lord’s service. Her prayer was answered and she became pregnant with Jesus, and she kept her promise. Jesus knew from a young age that he was promised to the Lord’s service.

      The strong personality of Jesus became evident at an early age. He was kind and gentle and very spiritual. He was charismatic and a natural leader, but also a bit of a loner. When he was about 30, he went to be baptized by John the Baptist, who many believed to be the Messiah in his day. After being baptized, Jesus had a spiritual experience that convinced him that he should help propagate the belief of John that the coming of the Kingdom of Heaven was at hand.

      The Birth of Jesus

      Mt 1:18

      ¹:¹ Joseph and Mary (Miriam) lived in the city of Nazareth in the district of Galilee in the nation of Judea.

      ¹:² And Mary was without child and prayed to the Lord that she may have a child and promised to dedicate him to the Lord’s service.

      ¹:³ And the Lord heard Mary’s prayers and opened her womb and gave to Mary and Joseph the child who was named Jesus (Jesse) after the father of Joseph’s ancestor, King David.

      ¹:⁴ And Mary raised Jesus to know that he was promised to the Lord’s service and Jesus believed it was so.

      ¹:⁵ When Mary saw that she was with child, she sang a song to the Lord.

      ¹:⁶ "My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,

      ¹:⁷ for He has been mindful of the humble state of His servant

      ¹:⁸ for the Lord has done great things for me and holy is His Name.

      ¹:⁹ His mercy extends to those who fear Him, from generation to generation.

      ¹:¹⁰ He has performed mighty deeds with His arm,

      ¹:¹¹ He has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts.

      ¹:¹² He has brought down the mighty and has exalted the humble.

      ¹:¹³ He has helped his servant Israel, remembering his promise to Abraham our father."

      ¹:¹⁴ My name is Emet son of Chaim, and I was Jesus’ best friend from the age of three until his death, and I saw or was told about all the things I have written herein.

      The Early Years

      ¹:¹⁵ It came to pass that Jesus grew up to be a kind and gentle lad who was sensitive to the pain and troubles of others.

      ¹:¹⁶ He was interested in the world around him and had a strong spiritual nature. He meditated on the words of the Lord night and day.

      ¹:¹⁷ Mary and Joseph sent him to the best schools and Jesus loved to learn about the laws and customs of his people.

      ¹:¹⁸ While yet a boy, he went to the discussions held by the sages in the city of Nazareth, and all the elders were amazed at how wise and mature he was.

      ¹:¹⁹ Before long he was asked to help teach the younger children. He often taught by story-telling, which helped the children understand better.

      ¹:²⁰ He was a natural leader and the other children were drawn to him, but he often preferred to be alone.

      ¹:²¹ He had a close relationship with God that he valued more than human friendships.

      ¹:²² The friends he did have were working people like himself, the sons of fishermen, carpenters, farmers, shepherds, even one who was the son of a tax collector.

      ¹:²³ His father tried to train Jesus to be a carpenter like himself, but Jesus soon discovered that was not where his talent lie.

      ¹:²⁴ As he grew older, he spent less time working and more time studying with the wise men of Nazareth.

      ¹:²⁵ He came to be very troubled by the problems and worries of the poor and downtrodden, and began to speak out about them.

      ¹:²⁶ He discovered as a youth that he had special healing powers which he said came from God.

      ¹:²⁷ As a descendant of King David, and having been promised to the Lord, he came to feel he was special,

      ¹:²⁸ and he grew to hope that, with God on his side, he would do something very important in the world.

      ¹:²⁹ He yearned for the day when he would be called by the Lord and he prepared himself for service. He became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him.

      ¹:³⁰ His gentle soul grieved greatly over the cruel and merciless world he saw around him and he became convinced that God felt the same way

      ¹:³¹ and was about to usher in the Kingdom of Heaven when all things would be set right.

      ¹:³² He hoped and expected that, as a son of David, he would play an important role when that great day arrived.

      ¹:³³ He became concerned that those around him were not ready for the arrival of the Kingdom of Heaven

      ¹:³⁴
