Book Overview

The Essenes is a book written by Arthur Lillie that delves into the history, beliefs, and practices of the Essenes, a Jewish sect that existed during the Second Temple period. The book provides a detailed account of the life and teachings of the Essenes, including their communal lifestyle, beliefs in reincarnation and immortality, and their unique approach to spiritual purification. Lillie draws from various historical sources, including the writings of Josephus and Philo, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Essene community and their impact on Jewish history. The book also explores the relationship between the Essenes and other Jewish sects of the time, such as the Pharisees and the Sadducees. Overall, The Essenes is a fascinating exploration of a little-known aspect of Jewish history and spirituality.THIS 22 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: India in Primitive Christianity, by Arthur Lillie.
