...Dr. Bob Holt's advantage over all these writers, and now even movie makers [at least 4 Mary Magdalene movies were planned for 2005], is that he read Dr. Barbara Thiering's book "Jesus and the Riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls" in 1992, when it was published. He made a number of trips to Israel and the Dead Sea area in 1992-1997, and checked out her "Gospel Pesher" theories. And now is an expert user of the "Gospel Pesher" technique!

   Also, after 2001, Dr. Holt was able to decode the passages in "Kings of Kashmira" by Kahlana that show definitely and historically that Jesus Christ was a King of Kashmir before and after his "Gospel Years" in Judea and Galilee.  It was in his later years as King Pravarasena that Jesus Christ is said to have had a "jeweled sword" that he enjoyed wielding, although in this historical record his only "wars" were pilgrimages in which he mostly converted other Indian provinces and kingdoms to Essene-style "Vegetarianism"!

HISTORICAL NOVELS

are, as scholars, literary students, and librarians are well aware, not actually "history" -- but based on "history" in that the heroes and heroines (or villains and villainesses) of these stories are generally assumed to have lived and acted at some time in the past, either as described in the Bible or other Religious traditions, or in secular history.

In the case of Dr. Holt's book, MARY MAGDALENE AND THE SWORD EXCALIBUR -- it is assumed that there was indeed a giant named "Goliath" that King David of Israel fought as a shepherd boy before he became king, and overcame by using stones from his sling before the watching armies of the Philistines and Israel -- and that Goliath's sword was actually used by David while he was fleeing King Saul in the wilderness.

It is assumed that such a sword would have been preserved by David and his family, and inherited by one of his sons. In this case, Dr. Holt uses "editorial license" to presume that the son of David who came to own the sword was Nathan, the brother of Solomon and son of David by Bathsheba, the former wife of Uriah the Hittite.

Solomon, in the Books of Chronicles, uses members of his family and relatives as his ministers and executives throughout the land of Israel, but strangely missing in this lineup is Nathan, his own blood brother.    Meanwhile Solomon is importing gold, ivory, monkeys, peacocks, and one assumes spices from India by means of a navy of ships built for David and Solomon by King Hiram of Tyre.   Here, Dr. Holt presumes, is where we can find the missing Nathan, in the important position of directing in India, and then Kashmir, Solomon's far-flung import-export activities.

Nathan has a family, also living in India and then Kashmir, and their genealogy is the genealogy given in Luke 3:23-38. After 1000 years of names the genealogy ends with Joseph son of Heli -- still living in Kashmir as did his ancestor, Nathan son of David, and of course -- Jesus Christ.  If Dr. Holt's research is correct -- Joseph's local name was Sandhimati, who as king of Kshmir was also known as the "White Rajah".  As Pravarasena, Jesus Christ still owned the Kashmiri branch of King David's family's proudest possession, the sword once belonging to the Philistine giant Goliath.

By the days of King Arthur, who if we are to believe local Cornwall traditions, was a descendent of both Jesus and Mary Magdalene, this ancient sword was found by the youthful Arthur either partly embedded in a stone, or passed to him by the "Lady of the Lake."  And until Arthur foolishly left it behind when fighting Modred, the sword made him practically invincible in battle.

For the further adventures of this famous sword, as imagined by the author of "Mary Magdalene and the Sword Excalibur" I suggest you read this book.  Or one of the other books written by Dr. Bob Holt using these same suppositions.
