In his earlier book The Mystery of the Copper Scroll of Qumran Robert Feather analysed the Dead Sea Scroll engraved on copper that is considered the work of the secretive devout Jewish sect known as the Essenes who lived at Qumran around the time of Jesus. To continue his research into the Essene community's way of life and how its beliefs may have influenced the beginnings of Christianity he met with Father Jozef Milik one of the scholars who worked on deciphering the Dead Sea Scrolls in the 1950s. Feather learned that during Milik's work somewhere near the Qumran ruins he had excavated a headless corpse that he believed to be that of John the Baptist. Feather presents persuasive powerful evidence illustrating the strong link between the Qumran Essenes and New Testament teachings and showing that both John the Baptist and Jesus were intimately involved with this community at Qumran. He further supports the claim that early Christians continued a belief system centred on a form of monotheism first formulated by the Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten and uniquely espoused by the Essenes at Qumran. Robert Feather is a metallurgist engineer journalist and scholar of world religions.
