Synopsis:
Ancient scriptures, hidden from the world for centuries, were found among the ancient library of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Others include assorted mystical writings known as Kabbalah, and a host of books that never made it into the Bible, called Apocrypha and the Pseudepigrapha by those who suppressed them. Additionally, there are the Gnostic texts of Nag Hammadi&;a location in Egypt where a treasure trove of lost books was discovered in the middle of the 20th century. Collectively, they comprise the &;Lost Bible.&; For centuries, these manuscripts were systematically suppressed because their liberating messages of individual power and worth challenged the authority and pet philosophies of political and religious leaders.
