The Essene Gospel of Peace is part of what are called the Dead Sea Scrolls, and was discovered in the Vatican library and translated into English by
Edmond Bordeaux Szekely. It appears to be a genuine manuscript written at the time of Christ or shortly thereafter.
The Essene Gospel of Peace is presented in four books: Book One, The Unknown Books of the Essenes, Lost Scrolls of the Essene, The Teachings of the Elect; plus: Essene Book of Revelations.
1 - This First Book is about the healing miracles and general healing work of Jesus of Nazareth and other Essenes, who were a holy order of which Jesus was a part, at least for a while in his lifetime. He learned how to heal people using food, water, air, sunshine and other simple means that were available to the people of the day.
2 - The second book, The Unknown Books of the Essenes tells about the three paths leading to Truth. The first is the path of the consciousness, the second that of nature, and the third is the accumulated experience of past generations, which we receive in the shape of the great masterpieces of all ages.
3 - From the author's preface, the third book of the Essene Gospel of Peace (Lost Scrolls of the Essene) is a collection of texts of great spiritual, literary, philosophical and poetical value, created by two powerful, interwoven streams of tradition. Chronologically, the first is the stream of traditions to which the Hebrew people were exposed in the Babylonian prison, dating from the Gilgamesh Epics to the Zend Avesta of Zarathustra. The second is the stream of traditions flowing with poetical majesty through the Old and New Testaments, dating from the ageless Enoch and the other Patriarchs, through the Prophets and on to the mysterious Essene Brotherhood.
4 - The words of Dr. Szekely about Book Four, The Teachings of the Elect: "
We have nothing to add to this text. It speaks for itself. The reader who studies the pages that follow with concentration, will feel the eternal vitality and powerful evidence of these profound truths which mankind needs today more urgently than ever before."
5 - The Essene Book of Revelations is dated back 150 BCE and 70 BC, and it is a Book of Prophecy, like the Revelation to John (the last book of the New Testament, well known for its End Days prophecy).

A fragment from the First Book of The Essene Gospel of Peace:
And Jesus himself sat down in their midst and said: I tell you truly, none can be happy, except he do the Law.
And the others answered: We all do the laws of Moses, our lawgiver, even as they are written in the holy scriptures.
And Jesus answered: Seek not the law in your scriptures, for the law is life, whereas the scripture is dead. I tell you truly, Moses received not his laws from God in writing, but through the living word. The law is living word of living God to living prophets for living men. In everything that is life is the law written. You find it in the grass, in the tree, in the river, in the mountain, in the birds of heaven, in the fishes of the sea; but seek it chiefly in yourselves. For I tell you truly, all living things are nearer to God than the scripture which is without life. God so made life and all living things that they might by the everlasting word teach the laws of the true God to man. God wrote not the laws in the pages of books, but in your heart and in your spirit. They are in your breath, your blood, your bone; in your flesh, your bowels, your eyes, your ears, and in every little part of your body. They are present in the air, in the water, in the earth, in the plants, in th e sunbeams, in the depths and in the heights. They all speak to you that you may understand the tongue and the will of the living God. But you shut your eyes that you may not see, and you shut your ears that you may not hear. I tell you truly, that the scripture is the work of man, but life and all its hosts are the work of our God. Wherefore do you not listen to the words of God which are written in His works? And wherefore do you study the dead scriptures which are the work of the hands of men?
A fragment from the Second Book, The Unknown Books of the Essenes:
I want to and will do my best
To live like the Tree of Life,
Planted by the Great Masters Of our Brotherhood.
With my Heavenly Father,
Who planted the Eternal Garden of the Universe
And gave me my spirit;
With my Earthly Mother
Who planted the Great Garden of the Earth
And gave me my body;
With my brothers
Who are working in the Garden of our Brotherhood.
I want to and will do my best
To hold every morning my Communions
With the Angels of the Earthly Mother,
And every evening
With the Angels of the Heavenly Father,
As established by
The Great Masters Of our Brotherhood.
I want to and will do my best
To follow the Path of the Sevenfold Peace.
I want to and will do my best
To perfect my body which acts,
My body which feels,
And my body which thinks,
A fragment from the Book Three, Lost Scrolls of the Essene:
God Speaks to Man
I speak to you.
Be still
Know
I am
God.
I spoke to you
When you were born.
Be still
Know
I am
God.
I spoke to you
At your first sight.
Be still
Know
I am
God.
I spoke to you
At your first word.
Be still
Know
I am
God.
I spoke to you
At your first thought.
Be still
Know
I am
God.
A fragment from the Book Four, The Teachings of the Elect:
THE ESSENE COMMUNIONS
And it came to pass that Jesus gathered the Sons of Light by the shore of the river, to reveal to them that which had been hidden; for the space of seven years had passed, and each one was ripe for truth, as the flower opens from the bud when the angels of sun and water bring it to its time of blossoming.
And all of them were unlike one to the other, for some were of age, and some had still the dew of youth on their cheeks, and some had been raised according to the traditions of their fathers, and others knew not who their father and mother had been. But all shared in a clearness of eye and a suppleness of body, for these were signs that for seven years they had walked with the angels of the Earthly Mother and obeyed her laws. And for seven years the unknown angels of the Heavenly Father had taught them through their sleeping hours. And now was the day come when they would enter the Brotherhood of the Elect and learn the hidden teachings of the Elders, even those of Enoch and before.
And Jesus led the Sons of Light to an ancient tree by the side of the river, and there he knelt at the place where the roots, gnarled and hoary with age, spread over the river edge. And the Sons of Light knelt also, and they did touch with reverence the trunk of the ancient tree, for it was taught to them that the trees are the Brothers of the Sons of Men. For their mother is the same, the Earthly Mother, whose blood runs in the sap of the tree and in the body of the Son of Man. And their father is the same, the Heavenly Father, whose laws are written in the branches of the tree, and whose laws are engraved in the forehead of the Son of Man.
A fragment from the Essene Book of Revelations
I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End; What is, what was, and what is to come.
And the voice spoke, and I turned to see
The voice that spoke to me,
And being turned, I saw seven golden candles;
And in the midst of their blazing light
I saw someone like a son of man,
Clothed in white, white as the snow.
And his voice filled the air with the sound of rushing water;
And in his hands were seven stars,
And when he spoke, his face was streaming light,
Blazing and golden like a thousand suns.
And he said, Fear not, I am the first and the last;
I am the beginning and the end.
Write the things that you have seen,
And the things that are, and the things that will come after;
The mystery of the seven stars which fill my hands,
And the seven golden candles, blazing with eternal light.
The seven stars are the Angels of the Heavenly Father,
And the seven stars are the Angels of the Earthly Mother.
And the spirit of man is the flame
That streams between the starlight and the glowing candle;
A bridge of holy light between Heaven and Earth.
