Philo Judeaus, a Hellenistic Jewish theologian living in the first century, exposed an ancient secret method for identifying and interpreting enigmas and parables written into Scripture. In 2002, Gott and Licht recognized Philo’s clues to enigmas embedded in Luke’s Gospel and began testing the method on unresolved biblical questions. Philo’s Rules, when applied to religious texts, ancient historical narratives, and literary classics, reveal new and unexpected documentation about Jesus and Mary Magdalene, and about their relationship with - and to - high-ranking Jewish and Roman authorities.
