Apocrypha Test: Part 4: Josephus The Essene, Royal Hasmonean, & Pharisee! In His Own Words!

Down the rabbit hole we go…. The other main alternative thrown out there is that of Josephus. However, why don’t scholars know who Josephus was. How could they claim Qumran was an Essene Canon when Josephus, the Essene, had a different Canon in the same era? How can they not see that Josephus was a Pharisee in his own words? In fact, have they even bothered to read Josephus’ supposed 22-book Canon which actually does not even list the 22 books? They speculate as to which ones and even if they are right, how is it that scholars have not realized 39 books does not equal 22 books? Certainly, Josephus would include 1st and 2nd Kings and similar as 1 book but even still, they must fill in gaps they do not even know. This is all to try to determine a Pharisee Canon which is impertinent in the face of the actual Bible Canon of the Biblically ordained custodians of inspired scripture, the sons of Zadok who lived in Qumran/Bethabara. They were not Essenes nor Pharisee, Josephus was both even linking the 2 factions as the same paradigm. There is so much confusion on this and this video will settle it once and for all. This guy was no expert on Bible Canon nor the Bible paradigm. Watch, test and learn. Yah Bless.
