  • Robert Eisenman is an American biblical scholar, theoretical writer, historian, archaeologist, and "road" poet. He is currently Professor of Middle East Religions, Archaeology, and Islamic Law and director of the Institute for the Study of Judaeo-Christian Origins at California State University Long Beach.
    Eisenman led the campaign to free up access to the Dead Sea Scrolls in the 1980s and 90s, and, as a result of this campaign, is associated with the theory that combines Essenes with Palestinian messianism (or what some might refer to as "Palestinian Christianity") - a theory opposed to establishment or consensus scholarship.
    Before this, Eisenman spent five years "on the road" in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East as far as India, encapsulating all these things in his poetic travel Diario (1959-62), published in 2007 by North Atlantic Books, Berkeley, California and called The New Jerusalem, in which he describes the San Francisco "Beat" scene in 1958-59, Paris when still a "moveable feast", working on kibbutzim in Israel, the Peace Corps, and several voyages on the overland route to India.

      What teachings of Jesus are we talking about here? Christian orthodoxy hitched its wagon to Paul's doctrines a long time ago. Since the other gospels resurfaced in the 1940s, the take on Jesus and his teachings afford us a more expansive view, which the churches continue denying

    I bought Eisenmans 'James the brother of Jesus' book about two years ago. As soon as I had finished it I started it again it is so fascinating.
    Being as much about Christianities origins and the internecine squabbles between James 'Torah/law' faction and Paul's 'anything goes' one as it is about James himself makes it one of the most fascinating Theology books I've ever read and I would advise anyone interested in Western Theology to buy it.
    I found on early (luckily enough) that it is invaluable to have a copy of the Bible, Josephus' 'Antiquities', a book collection of the Dead sea scrolls and the (sadly for me only online copies) of the 'Pseudo-Clementines' (as well as many other authors writings I don't have) to 'fact check' the information contained, it really pulls away the veil of Roman dogma that Western Christianity (of all denominations, Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox etc.) had drawn across the battle for the two competing versions of the emerging religion, and puts the then beloved James (who after Jesus died actually led the movement/religion for 30+ years from his Jerusalem base) back as the rightful heir to the emerging religion that his brother Jesus had previously led.
    It also details the sad events that led an initially pro-Jewish group (that included Gentiles) to eventually became an anti-Semitic religion after the Romans destroyed Jerusalem as well as Judea itself.
    Using the writings from 'Church fathers', Josephus, and the Dead sea scrolls it cuts through 2000 years of excepted dogma to show us how characters like Saul\Paul went from being the groups number one enemy to convert and eventually a rabble rouser who tore the movement apart, in the first of it's many dogmatic splits
    As I said above, this is THE book for those interested in Western Theology, making this the best religious read of the 3rd millennium so far.

    Most of the Christians I know are VERY familiar with Paul's letter to the Galatians, but they are invested in Paul's view of Jesus and therefore side with Paul on the issue of keeping the Law. As Paul said, if you can be "saved" by keeping the Law, then Jesus is unnecessary. The problem is not Christian ignorance of the contents of Galatians but rather their investment in the doctrine that we are saved by faith without the works of the Law. If you believe that, then those who promote Law-keeping have to be seen as the bad guys.

    I'm grateful for being privy to attend a few of Professor Eisemann's class in 90's upon his invitation after purchasing his well documented and researched book on James the borther of Jesus which open so many doors of critically understanding Judeo-christian origins. Now it's easier to grasp or better comprehend the geopolitical atmosphere on how Christianity actually evolved and important characters like James that played a more substantial role in the ministry of his famous brother Jesus after the crucifixion. So sad that modern Christian will have no clue on what actually transpired as opposed to embracing the pro-pauline and Petrine doctrines that have dominated the religious thought process for over 2000 years. Keep up the good work Professor Eisemann!

    Oh, wow…I have been a fan of Eisenman’s work for a while and knew he went to Cornell before joining the Beats, moving to Paris, and then going on the road. I am also an alumnus of Cornell Architecture, where Peter Eisenman (an alumnus) has been a visiting lecturer and given guest seminars for years…in general Peter is worshipped by the Cornell Architecture community (first year studio = “yo dawg, I heard you like superimposed grids…”), alongside other alumni and sometimes-lecturers like Richard Meier. I myself really looked up to Peter Eisenman’s work, studied it in detail, and it influenced my own work. But I had no idea these two Eisenmans (Eisenmen? lol) were brothers! What an immensely talented family!
    PS I know Robert Eisenman is very well known in certain circles and his work stands on its own, but with his brother’s “starchitect” levels of fame, and his anti-establishment stance and lifetime spent fighting and being persecuted by the academic cartel that trafficks and controls this corner of Academia, I wonder if this author of “James, the Brother of Jesus” sometimes feels like “Robert, the Brother of Peter”. 🤔 I get the sense Eisenman feels a lot of _pathos_ for James, possibly even connects with him on some level.

    Why would Paul need to teach circumcision when his ministry is to gentiles? During the Jerusalem council in the book of Acts, James is clearly in charge and prescribes for Gentiles something very much like the Noahide laws. How was Paul not consistent in his Gospel to the gentiles with that? James and Peter were sent to their fellow Jews, and Paul to the gentiles. Two very different agendas really.

      timber_beast I agree with Eisenman'a assessment on many things: he's a lightning rod of truth against centuries of religious dogmatism (refreshing criticism of traditional canon & theology) BUT... I can't agree that the gospels were written by the Paulines: Matthew is goes out of its way to enunciate pro-Torah teachings -it almost reads as a direct polemic -_-against-_- Paul/Saul- and then the gospel of John's incessant focus on the Judaic/Deuteronomical requirement of 'witness' / 'testimony' / 'Rabbinical ordination' seems written (to this impartial reader anyway) for the express purpose of stripping Saul's credibility.
      Otherwise, I generally agree. Paul def did co-opt and rebrand the Jesus movement.

      GOD'S ENEMIES, THROUGH THE SEVERAL MALICIOUS DOCUMENTARIES, USE SOME PASSAGES FROM THE GOSPELS AND INTENTIONALLY HIDE OTHERS THAT ARE VERY CLEAR AND EXPLICIT REGARDING THE "BROTHERS" OF OUR LORD: Mary was always a Virgin. The 6 children belonged to José, the elderly Carpenter, with his wife Melcha, who passed away (and the 6 were much older than the girl María, barely 14 years old): José el Carpintero was an old man when he married María, 15. He was a widower of the Melcha woman, having six (6) children with her, 4 men and 2 women, obviously all of them older than Mary: The Catholic Encyclopedia, citing the texts contained in the Apocryphal Gospels, writes that Joseph had six children (2 women and 4 men) with a marriage prior to Mary, who, upon becoming a widower, would marry Mary, at the suggestion of the Rabbi of Nazareth, "as a Tutor", since she had lived all her life in the temple with other girls, also virgins, as was obvious and absolutely traditional to Judaism:
      When he was forty years old, José married a woman named Melcha or Escha for some, Salomé for others, with whom he lived for forty-nine years and with whom he had six boys, two daughters and four sons, the youngest of whom was Santiago (the Lesser, called "the brother of the Lord").
      A year after the death of his wife, when the priests announced throughout Judea that they wanted to find in the tribe of Judah some respectable man to marry Mary, then twelve to fourteen years of age, Joseph, who already had in At that time ninety years, he went to Jerusalem among the candidates, a miracle manifested the election of Joseph made by God, and two years later the Annunciation took place.40
      The Gospel of pseudo-Matthew, which was probably written in the seventh century, establishes that Jesus' brothers were children of Joseph's previous marriage.
      José began to speak shyly, saying: I am an old man, and I have children; Why are you giving me this young lady, that she is younger than my grandchildren? And on a certain day, José called his first-born son, Santiago, and sent him to the garden to gather vegetables.And José, who had come to a party with his sons, Santiago, José, Judas, and Simeon and their two daughters, also attended Jesus, with Mary, his mother, together with his sister Maria de Cleopas. 41 AZG

    If James was an Essene then why did Paul meet him in Jerusalem and not in the desert where the Essenes lived to be apart from the impurity of the cities? Also Robert Eisenmann seems oblivious to the possibility James kept the law not because that's what Jesus taught but simply to avoid the same fate that befell his brother! James is living in Jerusalem of all places, were he not to keep the law he would have been hounded out of town. James fight with Paul can be seen in the same light. Perhaps James wanted early Christians to keep the law so they wouldn't be hunted down by other Jews who *did* keep it. The Jewish revolt of 66 AD and later in 115 AD are clear proof of the tinder box that underpinned Judaism at the time. James may have simply been trying to keep the peace, just like he thought his brother would have done.

Better to deliever Jesus to Pilate then wait until he comes with troops to take him. The priests' modus operandi was keeping the peace through collaboration.

    you people really love James, in fact he I think he is the only so called apostle whose death was protested. No one protested when Christ was crucified. James is of the flesh and he can never understand the spirituality of Christ. For Christ Himself said;
    “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”

    I like Eisenmann looking for historical James but he overlooks something that maybe he doesn't understand is real and that is the power of the Holy Spirit. He says the gospels are fiction or literary but they are the history of the Holy Spirit coming on God's people. You have to have experienced the power of the Holy Spirit powerfully in the sense that you cannot stand up under the power as did the priests in the Temple in Kings in the Bible when they could not minister to the people because the glory cloud was so powerful to know that the New Testament is not normal history but is history of the tangible power of God. The power descended on Jesus and remained with him at his baptism by John the Baptist and it is the power remaining with him that makes Jesus the anointed one. Having experienced the power I can say that though I love Eisenmann as a source of normal biblical history readers should understand that Eisenmann does not understand the history of the Holy Spirit. He believes the church is just brain washing and doesn't understand the history of the coming of the power of God.
    I do agree with him that we need more of James the Jewish James and less of St Paul the apostle to the gentiles now the gospels have been evangelize around the world and I do believe that the last move of the Holy Spirit is about the Jewish Jesus.
    The supernatural in the New Testament is definitely not fiction.

      "God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth a town in Galilee to virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph" Lk1:26(NIV)
      So they were no more a married couple. It is correct and clear.
      So, they didn't come to live together their life long.
      1) They didn't come to live together from the day of their betrothal until the Angel Gabriel appeared to Mother Mary. Why?, because they were not married.
      2) Again they didn't come to live together, as they were not married ,from the appearance of The Angel Gabriel to Mother Mary until the Joseph came to know that Mother Mary was pregnant, (may be in the Fourth or Fifth Month of her pregnancy.)
      Mary alone went and stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home( Lk1:56.)
      3) Again they didn't come to live together, from the appearance of an Angel of the Lord in a dream to Joseph, until Mother Mary gave birth to a son. (as they were not married).
      And finally, after the birth of Jesus, Joseph and Mother Mary, who were "PLEDGED TO BE MARRIED " didn't get married.
      Holy Mary has become the Mother of Jesus our Lord and Savior.
      Thereafter, the righteous Joseph as a poster father has been doing everything "to the Child and to His Mother" at his level best, as the orders of the Lord, who appeared in the dreams.
      Mary is perpetual virgin and gave birth to the first son and the only son in her virginity.
      Mary became the Mother of Jesus, who is the only Son of God.

    Yes. Except the revolutionary memes in Gospel of Mark (the allegedly most primitive gospel) doesn't fit Essenism very well, but instead in what Josephus alleges is "like Phariseism", namely the "fourth sect" containing Zealotry, but also other stuff, such as common property, never submitting to any other "king" than God, etc.. The Qumran sect were more like some extreme Sadducees sect. Everybody were against the Romans at the First Jewish-Roman war, including the Herodians, so the Qumran joined the rebellion and then were slaughtered by the Romans, since every sect fought the Herodians, their allied the Pharisees and each other. The conflict between the Qumranites and the Pharisees was probably of the same kind as the conflict between the Sadducees and the Pharisees: it originated in the persecution of lower-middle class Pharisees under Alexander Jannaeus and the retaliation against the priestly upper-class Sadducees under his widow Alexandra Salome. It has little to do with the poor peoples Messianism/Zealotry.

    Not quite James was Jesus' half-brother; as Joseph was a widow when he married Mary (most Holy).

    The title "Just" was applied to Joseph and inherited by James -not Jesus -Jesus was not Joseph's first born but Jesus was Mary's first born -so Jesus was a first born.
    Lastly to this day in Spain and Latin America (as it was in Biblical times), 1st cousins are referred to as Cousin-Brothers (Primo-Hermanos) -so when in the NT and OT there is reference to brother, it could also be cousin (Cousin-Brother).

    Is Eisenmann naive or disingenuous? "Brother", in very many places in the NewTestament, AND among many native peoples, means kinsman. That is basic.
    And "brother" also means one who shares the same theology.
    There is no reason to think that Jesus had full blood brothers and sisters. None.
    Joseph was a man advanced in years when he married 15-year-old Mary. He would not have been single his whole life. He would have married and had children. These are Jesus' (half) brothers.
    Moreover, Jesus commends Mary to Joseph as He dies on the cross. All women at that time needed a male protector. If He had had brothers He would not have needed John to protect His mother.
    This is all basic information. I find it hard to believe that Mr Eisenmann is unaware of this.

    The 12 apostles had three brothers: Jesus, James and Jesus's twin, Thomas. Three children from the same mother means that Mary was not a virgin. The education of all three boys requires means. Thomas reveals childhood allusions to Jesus that reveal he was self aware at a young age!

    Aramaic & biblical Hebrew don't differentiate between brothers & half-brothers, although biblical Greek does as well as giving another word for cousins. Thus, this might partially refute Eisenman's argument that Jesus (a.k.a. Yeshua since Eisenman insists upon Hebrew names) wasn't divine. Then again, if one believes in an all-powerful & mighty God of creation, which some of us do because of how He has shaped & guided our lives, all things are possible. Thus, if Elohim Adonai wished to endow Jesus with divinity, this certainly wouldn't depend upon who His earthly father was (whether it was Joseph or an unidentified human male). Moreover, the Jesus (or Ben Joseph) family dynasty--Jesus, & his brothers, James (or Jacob if one prefers), Simon, & Jude as well as their cousin, John the Baptist)--doesn't negate the Jewish idea that Jesus was the Messiah.

    Notice that Eisenman never talks about the 600 pound gorilla in the room - the difference between Paul's doctrine and James' doctrine. Instead of accusing Paul of being a big hater, mean, and envious, how about discussing the difference between Paul's theology and James' theology?
    He can't do it because he doesn't know the difference. To him (as with most people) he sees James and Paul as members of the same church. They were not.
    The problem with our churches is that they don't teach the difference between Paul's doctrine and James' doctrine. As a wise woman once said, "You can't teach what you don't know."

    Eisenman is RIGHT! (And so am I, Isaiah 41:26-29, for I suggest to you that someone with "cotton candy" hair has it all UPSIDE DOWN. How do I know that? Why--the Holy Bible tells me so (and "for Zion's sake" I refuse to remain silent--Isaiah 62:1, 58:8-10* "your light will arise in the darkness "). The founder of that ancient "resurrection cult" (morphed into what's called "Christianity") was Paul, and if you read him closely--why, he was an obnoxious man who slandered fellow Jews --people who once fought a WAR to preserve circumcision--a rite of covenant begun with Abraham, father of all Jews and Arabs. Read how he hoped Jews who wanted to retain circumcision would "let the knife slip and cut off their private parts as well" (Galatians 5:2 & --5:12----h sounds like Donald Trump, trying to hog the attention and become "talked about" in the neighboring (Herod loving) Roman provinces--it makes sense, as he (a Roman loving "Herodian" by birth) had no qualms about slandering Jews like Moses (2nd Corinthians 3:7-15, even calling the TEN COMMANDMENT of Moses "a MINISTRY OF DEATH, ENGRAVED ON STONE" where Jesus of Nazareth ALWAYS HONORED THE TEN COMMANDMENTS as an "index of righteousness" (Luke --18:18---20*, Jesus said "You know the commandments" ) and elsewhere Jesus said that he was NOT come to destroy the Law of God as taught by Moses (Mt.--5:17---18) as not one "jot nor tittle" of the law would change "until heaven and earth pass away" (Matthew --5:17---18*). Know that IDOLATRY is an "unforgivable sin", and the LASER is N O T G O D -- and all who say it is are IDOLATERS (about to be DISGRACED TOGETHER--ISAIAH 45:16 & 57:6). For GOD ALMIGHTY never spoke in secret (from some land of darkness, Jer. 2:31*, Isaiah 45:19*) but he told us plainly that he KNOWS N O R O C K . N O T O N E . (Isaiah 44:8). I yield and grant the rest of my time to Jerry Nadler, the lovely Nancy Pelosi, and honorable Chuck Schuman. What's a nice Jewish boy like me doing here--preaching to these blood hungry
    vigilantes who hound the poor and need to his death (as if to slay the "broken-in-heart" with a secret scream of joy (Psalm 109:16-18, 28* + Psalm 64:2-6 & 94:15-21, Mt. 24:28-29, Joel 3:15). amen (Jeremiah 23:22).

    It's not correct to say "Bible tells" for all the verses which are recorded in the Bible.
    What was revealed by God and words of prophets, words of good people, etc, can be treated as Word of God.
    Words and opinions, comments of the different people etc, can not be treated as word of God.
    Quotes by Satan, words and statements by unfaithful people and even by the enemies of the Jesus, mere opinions of different section of people were also recorded in the Bible.
    These can't be treated as Scripture. They have no validity.
    As so, Mt13:54_58 and Mk6:2_6 are the openions of the audience who have no faith and belief.
    Jesus noticed their "lack of faith and unbelief".
    That is why,Jesus stopped doing any more miracles for them.
    Jesus sternly left the place and went away from there.Why?
    They insulted Jesus .
    They humiliated Jesus .
    They looked down upon Jesus.
    They didn't say even His name
    " Jesus ".They called " Carpenter"/"carpenter son ".
    They thought Jesus was born to Carpenter n Mary.
    That much identity they gave Him.
    Mathew and Mark gave the judgement over their comments as
    " THEY TOOK OFFENSE AT HIM"
    Don't join with them by accepting their devilish opeinions.
    Don't quote those opinions as Word of God.
    Don't make Jesus unhappy again by saying those unwanted comments.
    Before 12 years old, Joseph, Mother Mary went to Jerusalem for the Festival of Passover with only Jesus.
    There were no other kids with them.
    After 12 years, before the death of Joseph, there was few years of gap only.
    How did Mother Mary give birth to more than half a dozen children during this little gap of time?.
    And where were these Minors, small kids, and at least a breastfeeding baby who were born to Mother Mary, at the time of His public ministry, n at the time of His death?
    No one was found!!.
    Because Blessed Virgin Mary the Mother God our Savior, gave birth to Jesus only.
    "Mother of my Lord" Says Elizabeth, prophetically, once for all.
    14+14+14 generations from Abraham to Joseph were listed by Mathew, in chapter one.
    It was ended with, Jacob was father of Joseph and Joseph has no children.
    Joseph was father to Jesus who was born to his wife Mary the Blessed Virgin.

    Is there any proof in the Bible that Mary the Mother of Jesus gave birth to second son or daughter and so on? No, there is no proof.
    Mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph . (Or betrothed to be married).
    1) Firstly, They didn't come to live together from the day of their betrothal to the day of The Angel Gabriel appeared to virgin Mary.
    2) Secondly, they didn't come to live together from the day of this meeting of Angel Gabriel with Mother Mary to Joseph came to know that Mother Mary was pregnant , might be in the fourth month, when Mary came to home after three months,from Elizabeth .
    3)Thirdly, they didn't come to live together from the appearance of an angel to Joseph until the birth of Jesus.
    5) Finally, Mother Mary became the Mother of Jesus, our Lord and God.
    6) Righteous, Joseph, has been doing to the Child and to the Holy Mother according to the guidances given to Joseph in his dreams.
    At the age of 12 years, Joseph brought the Child and His Mother Mary, to the Jerusalem Festival, as Mary the Mother of Jesus had no other children.
    Thus, he had been doing his services to the CHILD AND MOTHER.
    " Jesus went down with them then and came to Nazareth and lived under their authority " Lk 2:51.
    (Joseph, Child, and His Mother)
    And later, Joseph died even before the public ministry of Jesus.
    " ..... And there are EUNUCHS who have made themselves so for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven.
    Let anyone accept this who can" Mt19:12.
    Mary, Mother of God ,our Lord, lived in her perpetual virginity.

Consequently, he does not know about for example..literary genres of any literature (here, Bible). If James, the brother of Jesus is not his follower, then who is the author of the letter of James in NT? True, at first before the Ressurection "event" the whole family of Jesus including this James rejected him, rather He rejected them (Mark 3:21, John 7:5). St.Paul as more schooled than simple fishermen (and James) was criticizing them for wrong interpretation of Law-is natural to correct the fool? Imagine Peter of James battling Stoics or Epicureans in Athens (acts 17). All New Testament is not pro-Cesar -though not openly- but contra him. The naming of Jesus as Lord is a political title contra Cesar (Phil 2:11, see.G.Borg@others). Already in Luke's stories (not a history- in any textbook of Bible!) Lk 2:12 speaks about peace just contra that of Pax Romana! Finally: if Paul was pro-Roman like Josephus why he was executed by Cesar?
