This book presents all of the surviving shorter works of John the
Presbyter, the only professional writer among Jesus's followers.
They were written over a turbulent thirty-year period in which
Jerusalem was destroyed and the author was found guilty of treason
against Rome and exiled. During these decades John also strove to
explain the true teachings of Jesus and oppose the dogma invented
by Paul of Tarsus, who had never even met Jesus. Besides writings
found in the New Testament, several very little-known works of John
are included: rare teachings of Jesus, an account of Jesus dancing,
an instruction manual for congregations, and critical comments
about the Gospel of Mark. Freshly translated from Greek and
sometimes Aramaic, these texts provide a sharp picture of one man's
efforts to keep alive the truth about Jesus. Anyone interested in
the real historical Jesus behind the distortions of religious
doctrine should come to know them.
