The present work is an adaptation of Edmond Bordeaux Székely’s Book One of The Essene Gospel of Peace, first published in 1928. To be sure, this is not a new translation of the former volume, instead the present work could best be described as a variation on a theme. In essence, the former volume severed as a rough draft of sorts, from which a more expansive and esoteric narrative was crafted. And while the present work may be correctly classified as historical fiction, it nonetheless aims to connect the dots in order to give the reader a key, by which secrets hidden in plain site may be more easily decoded. Further, the present work utilizes The Tetragrammaton YHWH – יהוה the four-letter Hebrew name of the Creator, as well as Hebrew names and phrases throughout its pages. Additionally, the present work also includes cultivation exercised, which were only generally hinted at in the former volume. And while the present work does have a distinctly Hebraic and esoteric (i.e. Kabbalah) frame of reference, it is hoped that all readers may gain some beneficial insight from its reading, regardless of your religious views or persuasion.
