Book Overview

W. D. Mahan investigates Roman, Greek and Jewish writings corresponding to the time of the death of Jesus Christ, including letters apparently written by Pontius Pilate; the Roman governor who sentenced the Son of God to death.

This book combines translations to English of various ancient documents, which are purported to date to the time of the New Testament Gospels. These papers were discovered in the Turkish capital of Constantinople, and in the archives of the Vatican. The manuscripts were said to originate from the time of Tiberius Caesar, and include a long letter from Pontius Pilate to his superior, Emperor Tiberius of Rome - Pilate alludes to encountering a philosopher named Jesus, and relates the events that culminated in the death of Christ.

In the modern day, scholars consider the Acta Pilate to date from a later time than the life of Jesus, with most agreeing that the 4th century AD is the probable period of origin. The Hillel letters also date from the 4th century, and offer an insightful history of the Sanhedrim rabbis who would gather in Israel to discuss spiritual matters at the time. Hillel comments on the relationship between God and the Jews, his insightful words shedding light on Judaic worship.

The Archko Volume

This is an amazing book in that it explains the background and people involved in the arrest, condemnation and death of Jesus the Christ. While the Bible gives an accurate description of these events, The Archko Volume goes behind the scenes and into the lives of the people responsible for the events.

Jesus revealed

This book will knock the socks of believers in Jesus Christ. You will not find anything that contradicts the bible in it but it will disturb your own believes.

The Archko Volume : or The Archeological Writings of the Sanhedrim & Talmuds of the Jews

If this book is true it should be appended to every Bible for historical purpose. The authors and the veracity of what they claim are just too sketchy. There are concerns in some of the information. It claims the Holy family in mecca?? For what purpose it doesn't relay. Nor can I imagine. There is herein a physical description of Jesus which I have received from other sources. This in itself is worth buying this book. It is one of the best books I've ever read. I would love to finally determine whether or not it is factual. As it could just be 'too good to be true'.

A Book of Answers that raises more Questions.

The Archko Volume is written in a time when every thing has to be authenticated. The author and seeker of this information, Rev. W.D. Mahan, goes to great lengths to insure that the reader is aware of the origins of these documents being translated. He also leaves the belief or disbelief up to the reader. Drs. McIntosh and Twyman were real individuals who at the time these scrolls were translated, 1883 to 1887, had the knowledge and ability to translate these scrolls from the Roman Empire. This only enhances the credibility and authenticity of this book. If you truely wish to expand your knowledge base and desire to bring new questions to your Christian life. Then take time to read this little known book.
