There are rumors that a new manuscript from the Dead Sea area has been discovered and is for sale on the black market. Some say that the scroll was written by a woman, a female apostle of Christ, and is consistent with other Gnostic texts. There is even suspicion that the codex discusses a second set of twelve apostles, all female and let by Mary Magdalene. Whatever the true identity of this artifact, there is definitely something special about this papyrus, people are willing to kill for it.
The Dead Sea Codex is full of mystery, intrigue, and the potential questioning of everything we’ve believed true of Christianity and its origins. This smart mystery allows the reader to travel to Israel and become an archaeologist, and adventurer, and treasure hunter for just a little while.
