The Essenes and the Advent of Jesus is an inspiring eight-lesson Bible study for the Advent and Christmas season that explores the events and intense spiritual preparation that led to the birth of Jesus the Christ. This study guide, rooted in Scripture and enriched by insights from the readings of the Christian psychic Edgar Cayce, integrates the traditional story of the birth of Jesus with unique and invaluable background material extracted from the readings. It presents a richer Bible interpretation that fills in some of the historical gaps in the Advent story, and corrects some misperceptions prevalent in the traditional interpretation of the few biblical verses that tell the story. It reveals the hidden spiritual context surrounding the Immaculate Conception and the coming of the Messiah.
The Christmas story actually begins some four hundred years before the birth of Jesus with the formation of a School of Prophets at Mount Carmel by the prophet Elijah. This school became the center of a religious Jewish sect called the Essenes, who dedicated their lives to preparing for this divine event. The Essenes, known as the compilers and keepers of the Dead Sea scrolls, lived lives of purity and dedication, guided by prophecy and spiritual discipline. They provided for the education and protection of Mary, ensuring that she was spiritually, mentally, and physically ready for her sacred role. The Essene community educated Jesus during his childhood and saw that he was given a higher education in spiritual matters as a young adult.
Each of the eight lessons in this Bible study focuses on a key event or figure involved in the Advent and birth of Jesus, integrating relevant Bible verses, inspired insights from the Cayce readings, and discussion questions designed to deepen understanding and encourage personal reflection. The study guide is perfect for individual or group Bible study, inviting readers to rediscover the Advent season as the Essenes once did—through preparation, prophecy, and spiritual awakening—and shedding new light on the eternal mystery of the birth of Jesus.

Jeffrey Imes is a retired PhD physicist. His career included geophysical analysis of seismic data to locate oil reservoirs in Libya, Tunisia, and the Gulf of Mexico. He developed computer simulations of groundwater flow through the aquifers of southern Missouri and Abu Dhabi Emirate, worked in Kenya and Djibouti to identify promising locations for village water wells, and worked in Bangladesh studying aquifer production and arsenic contamination. He has many interests that span the range from cosmology and archaeology to spirituality. He has studied the Edgar Cayce readings for about 45 years and appreciates the natural way in which the philosophy of the readings integrate science, Christianity, and aspects of Eastern religions in a coherent non-dogmatic manner.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The Essenes and the Advent of Jesus is an eight-lesson biblical study guide for the Advent and Christmas season that brings to life the events leading to the birth of Jesus the Christ. This guide integrates Bible verses about the birth of Jesus with invaluable background information from the readings of Christian psychic Edgar Cayce. The readings bring to light considerable background material covering the years before the birth of Jesus, fill in some of the historical gaps in the biblical material, and correct some misperceptions prevalent in the traditional interpretation of these biblical verses. The story begins with the formation of a School of Prophets some four hundred years before Jesus's birth. This school eventually became the center of a religious Jewish sect called the Essenes (the group that compiled the Dead Sea scrolls), who dedicated their lives to preparing for the birth of the Messiah. The Essenes prepared for the Messiah by providing for the education and protection of Mary, a far more likely scenario than the traditional idea that Mary was a village girl assigned the role of motherhood with no prior knowledge on her part and with complete disregard for her free will. The Essenes also educated Jesus during his childhood and saw that he was given higher education in spiritual matters as a young adult. Each of the eight lessons provides information on a specific topic or individual associated with the birth of Jesus and ends with a series of questions to encourage discussion.
