Codex Sinaiticus: The Discovery of the World’s Oldest Bible ( Hardcover )
Author: Constantine Tischendorf and Trustees British Museum
The author, Constantine Tischendorf, was one of the world’s leading biblical scholars of his time. He spent much of his life searching for ancient biblical manuscripts, with his primary goal being to provide the world with the earliest scriptures in existence. Starting in 1844 Tischedorf’s greatest discovery was made. While visiting St. Catherine’s monastery in the Sinai, he found what would later be confirmed as the oldest complete New Testament bible ever found. Most of the Old Testament was included as well.
This book is his entire first-hand account of this amazing discovery, followed by his assessment of its historical importance. It took him three trips, altogether, to convince those in the monastery to trust him and allow this bible to be shared with the world. Most of it was brought to Russia, but it was later sold to the British Museum in 1933 after they bought it from the Russian government for 100,000 British pounds. The Mount Sinai Manuscript of the Bible, also included here in this Book Tree published edition, was written shortly after the arrival of the manuscript in England. It outlines the known history of this bible and its importance to the world. Today, after years of study by scholars, this codex has revealed what the original scriptures may have looked like and what portions could have been later added.

Breaking the Godspell ( Hardcover )
Subtitle: The Politics of our Evolution
Author: Neil Freer
Introduction: Zecharia Sitchin
Freer explores the archaeological, astronomical and genetic evidence for our being a half-alien, genetically engineered species. He presents the mind-boggling ramifications of this new paradigm which correct and resolve the Creationist-Evolutionary conflict, afford a generic definition of human nature, and the potential to rethink the planet. We are about to step out of racial adolescence into stellar society. Zecharia Sitchin writes, “It is gratifying that a mere decade after the publication of my work, an author with the grasp that Neil Freer displays in Breaking the Godspell has set out to probe what the recognition of the existence and Earth-visits of the Nefilim can mean — not just to scientists and theologians — but to each human being upon this planet Earth.”

The Book of the Secrets of Enoch ( Hardcover )
Translated from the Slavonic by W.R. Morfill.
Edited with Introduction and Notes by R. H. Charles
For 1200 years this book was known to only a few people in Russia. When finally revealed to the world in 1892, it was thought to be a Slavonic version of The Book of Enoch, but once translated we’ve found it to be different, but equally important. A completely new and valuable pseudepigraph, recommended to those interested in apocalyptic literature and the origins of Christianity.

The Book of Jasher ( Hardcover )
Author: Albinus Alcuin
A Suppressed Book that was Removed from the Bible, Referred to in Joshua and Second Samuel, translated by Albinus Alcuin (800 AD).
Some sources claim this book was once the original start of the Bible. We do know at one time that it was once part of the Bible, being referred to in Joshua and Second Samuel. It also survived the burning of the Alexandria Library in 389 AD due to a fast acting custodian. Alcuin later did the original translation of it from Hebrew in 800 AD. It became suppressed but rediscovered briefly in 1829. Only now has it become widely known. Special note: A more common 64 page version is in circulation, but is a proven forgery.
