Jesus in Egypt: Did Jesus, the Sanskrit Scholar, Live Once in Egypt? - Paperback

by Zacharias P. Thundy (Author), Janus Rasmus (Author)

We know very little about the the Jesus of history, but we know much about the Christ of faith from the Gospels and other Christian traditions. The former is elusive while the latter is illusive because we cannot prove historically that the Christ of faith/myth is identical to the Jesus of history. However, there emerges from the Gospels and Christian traditions a Jesus of literature. The Gospels, being literary works, are full of allusions as to some of the details in his life. This book is an attempt to make sense of some of the allusions in the New Testament that lead us to postulate that Jesus most likely spent many years in Egypt, engaged in academic studies and in the practice of asceticism.
