Book Description
Each Christmas, adults and children alike delight at the story of the kings from the East who followed the star to Bethlehem to offer gifts to the newborn Christ. While this familiar tale is recorded in the Gospel of Matthew, another little-known version later emerged that claimed to be the eyewitness account of the wise men. This ancient manuscript has lain hidden for centuries in the vaults of the Vatican Library, but through the determined persistence of a young scholar, Brent Landau, this astonishing discovery has been translated into English for the very first time as the Revelation of the Magi. Everything we know about the wise men is based on only a few verses from the Bible. With the Revelation of the Magi, we can now read the story from the Magi's perspective. Readers will learn of the Magi's prophecies of God's incarnation from the beginning of time, their startling visitation in the form of a star, the teachings they receive from the baby Jesus, and the wise men's joyous return to their homeland to spread the good news. This ancient version of the Christmas story is guaranteed to astonish and delight. It will also raise larger questions of the significance and meaning of Christ's birth, and the mission to spread the good news to every corner of the globe. All the drama and intrigue of the brief description of Jesus's birth in the Bible is filled out in greater, more colorful detail, offering for the first time the complete story of these beloved characters.

Book Description
2nd Esdras is one of the most powerful prophetic displays in history yet mostly hidden today from plain sight in the church. As it claims authorship from the Prophet Ezra 400 years prior to Messiah, it even foretells His birth in 400 years from that date as well as identifies Him as Yahusha in name. It preserves the trail of the Lost Tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in which we have provided maps and charts including other scripture and history which serve as the foundation for such location. This will blow many away as we can know where the Lost Tribes migrated en masse. Experience the origin of many portions of Revelation and we will prove well before Revelation was written. The Final Eagle Empire prophecy, a continuation of Daniel's prophecy of the Four Beasts will raise the hairs on the back of your neck when you realize just how close to home it is today and we provide a chart with our interpretation of its three ruling heads. Once most have completed reading this curation, they will wonder why we have not had this knowledge all along. We will vet this book and 1st Esdras and prove it was written prior to the New Testament and is the origin of the words of Messiah and the Apostles many times especially the Book of Revelation. There is a reason this book as well as 1st Esdras both remain in some Bibles today as scripture and their historicity is not debatable as they appear in the 1560 Geneva Bible and Original, Authorized 1611 King James Version. Translators did not waste their time translating this into English as they did scripture for no reason. If you are KJV Only, you may want to look at the original 1611 version which included both of these books. In this annotation of 2nd Esdras with 1st Esdras, we have restored the Original 1611 King James Version and revised the English, curated margin notes, and provided detailed explanations including charts, maps, etc. We have also restored the Hebrew name of YHWH, Yahuah, for "the Lord" throughout as well as other Hebrew names in some cases. This should be done in all of scripture as His very name is there in Hebrew over 6,800 times in the Old Testament. Our introduction unveils our research on who lived in Qumran (not Essenes), the identity of the Qumran Priests, who defiled the Temple, vets Hanukkah, and Purim as well the Book of Esther, Messiah in Esdras, the name of YHWH in Esdras, etc. We are not scholars and this is an educated layman's view of 1st and 2nd Esdras which many will find more valuable than most scholarly approaches. This work will teach and draw conclusions. In these days of increasing knowledge, some such knowledge is actually ancient knowledge restored. We believe you will find this is the case with 2nd Esdras as well as 1st Esdras. As the international authors of The Book of Jubilees: The Torah Calendar, The Search for King Solomon's Treasure: The Lost Isles of Gold and the Garden of Eden and Ophir Philippines Coffee Table Book, Timothy Schwab and Anna Zamoranos joined by their research team from The God Culture have once again curated another book tied to the Qumran Scrolls which will enlighten many. Review their findings and prove all things, hold fast that which is good (1 Th. 5:21).
