ROMAN PISO FAMILY WROTE THE NEW TESTAMENT, INVENTED "JESUS"

"We Jews and Church Leaders have known since the beginning of Christianity that it was
synthesized by the Roman Piso family for the purpose of maintaining control over the masses and to
placate slaves. And, this is why we Jews are the "Chosen People" and why we have endured so
much for so many years; we are witnesses to the lie. Our ancestors wrote what they could about
this in our texts."


FROM CHAPTER I (The True Authorship of the New Testament)


"The New Testament, the Church, and Christianity, were all the creation of the Calpurnius Piso
(pronounced Peso w/ long "E") family (a), who were Roman aristocrats. The New Testament and
all the characters in it--Jesus, all the Josephs, all the Marys, all the disciples, apostles, Paul, and
John the Baptist--are all fictional."


"The Pisos created the story and the characters; they tied the story into a specific time and place in
history; and they connected it with some peripheral actual people, such as the Herods, Gamaliel, the
Roman procurators, etc. But Jesus and everyone involved with him were created (that is, fictional!)
characters."


"In the middle of the first century of our present era, Rome's aristocracy felt itself confronted with a
growing problem. The Jewish religion was continuing to grow in numbers, adding ever more
proselytes. Jews numbered more than 8,000,000, and were 10% of the population of the empire
and 20% of that portion living east of Rome. (b) Approximately half or more of the Jews lived
outside Palestine, of which many were descended from proselytes, male and female." (c)


"However, Judaism's ethics and morality were incompatible with the hallowed Roman institution of
slavery on which the aristocracy fed, lived and ruled. They feared that Judaism would become the
chief religion of the empire. The Roman author, Annaeus Seneca, tutor and confidant of Emperor
Nero, suggested in a letter to his friend Lucilius (a pseudonym of Lucius Piso) that lighting candles
on Sabbaths be prohibited. (d) Seneca is later quoted by St. Augustine in his City of God (e)
(although the quotation does not exist in Seneca's extant writings) as charging that: "the (Sabbath)
customs of that most accursed nation have gained such strength that they have been now received in
all lands, the conquered have given laws to the conqueror.""


"The family headed by Seneca's friend, Lucius Piso, was confronted with an allied problem more
personal to it. They were the Calpurnius Pisos, who were descended from statesmen and consuls,
and from great poets and historians as well. Gaius and Lucius Calpurnius Piso, leaders of the family,
had both married Arria the Younger (from her grandfather's name, Aristobulus). This made Gaius
and Lucius Piso's wife the great-granddaughter of Herod the Great."


"Repeatedly, religious-minded Judaean zealots were staging insurrections against the Herodian rulers
of Judaea who were Piso's wife's relations. Piso wished to strengthen his wife's family's control of
the Judaeans. The Pisos searched for a solution to the two problems. They found it in the Jewish
holy books, which were the foundation both for the rapid spread of the religion and for the zealot's
refusal to be governed by Rome's puppets. The Pisos mocked, but marveled at, the Jewish belief in
their holy books. Therefore, they felt a new "Jewish" book would be the ideal method to pacify the
Judaeans and strengthen their in-laws' control of the country."


"About the year, 60 A.D. (C.E.), Lucius Calpurnius Piso composed Ur Marcus, the first version of
the Gospel of Mark, which no longer exists. He was encouraged by his friend Seneca (f) and
assisted by his wife's kinsman, young Persius the Poet. Nero's mistress (later his wife) Poppea was
pro-Jewish, and Nero opposed the plan. The result was the Pisonian conspiracy to assassinate
Nero, detailed in the historian Tacitus. But this attempt failed when he aborted the plot. Instead,
Nero had Piso and Seneca and their fellow conspirators executed by forcing them to commit
suicide."


"He exiled Piso's young son Arrius (spelled "Arius" herein), who appears in Tacitus under several
names, including "Antonius Natalis." (g) Nero sent young Piso to Syria as governor. That post also
gave him command of the legions controlling Judaea. His own "history" records his service in Judaea
in the year 65 under the name of Gessius Florus, and in 66 with the pseudonym Cestius Gallus."


"This Arius Calpurnius Piso deliberately provoked the Jewish revolt in 66 so he could destroy the
Temple in Jerusalem (h)--for the Jews were unwilling to accept his father's story and thereby
become pacified by it as it was intended. However, his 12th legion was caught by the zealots in the
Pass of Beth Horon and almost lost. Nero's reaction was to exile him instead to Pannonia, to
command a legion there; and to send Licinius Mucianus to serve in Syria, and Vespasian to Judaea
to put down the Jewish revolt."


"Then in 68 Nero was assassinated by his own slave Epaphroditus (I) --who unknown to his master
was young Piso's lackey. Galba became emperor and named Piso's cousin, Licinianus Piso, (j) as
his intended successor; but Galba in turn was soon overthrown by Otho. Otho was then overthrown
by Vitellius-at which point Piso and his friends began to flock together against the latter. The Pisos,
Mucianus, and Tiberius Alexander all joined ranks behind Vespasian to seek to overthrow Vitellius.
(k) The were joined by Frontinus and Agricola."


"Arius Calpurnius Piso was still commanding the 7th legion in Pannonia (l) (Austria-Hungary), and
Vespasian sent him (m) (now appearing in Tacitus with the name Marcus Antonius Primus (n)) south
across the Alps to overthrow Vitellius. Meanwhile, the main body of Vespasian's legions marched
overland under Mucianus from the east towards Rome. Piso succeeded in defeating Vitellius' army
and secured Rome for Vespasian.(o) Mucianus arrived and promptly sent him to Judaea to help
Titus at the siege of Jerusalem. He did so, and in 70 they assaulted the city, then the Temple, burned
it, slaughtered many thousands, sent thousands more to slavery and gladiatorial combat and death."
"Then, Arius Calpurnius Piso wrote, in sequence, the following: Gospel of Matthew (70-75 C.E.)
Present Gospel of Mark (75-80 C.E.) Gospel of Luke (85-90 C.E., with help of Pliny the
Younger) In the gospel story he inserted himself by playing the role of not only Jesus, but of all the
Josephs, as well. He particularly enjoyed assuming the identity of Joseph. Wishing to create a
Jewish hero, a savior, in fictional form, he (and his father before him), felt the identity of a second
Joseph secretly, but very aptly, fit them. For their name Piso had the same four letters, rearranged,
as the four Hebrew letters (Yud Vov Samech Fey) which in that language spelled the name Joseph.
Thus they saw themselves as the new Joseph. That is why so much of the story of Joseph in Egypt is
secretly redone and inserted into the gospel story of Jesus."

Having destroyed the Temple, Piso could then have Jesus (whom he was predating to 40 years
before the Temple's destruction) prophecy the destruction because of the Jews' rejection of him!
(Mat. 23.37-38). (i) Roman historians (Suet. Nero 49, and Dio Cassius 63.29) explain merely that
Epaphroditus assisted the emperor's suicide. See also Tacitus, Annals XV.55, footnote 2. (j)

(Tacitus) Vespasian relied on Piso because he was grandson of his own brother--Vespasian's
brother, T. Flavius Sabinus, had married Arria Sr., who was Piso's maternal grandmother. Piso's
identity as thus also a Flavian is decipherable from the appearance in the Flavian family line of L.
Caesennius Paetus (Townend, Gavin, Some Flavian Connections, Journal of Roman Studies
LI.54,62, 1961). That was an alias (like Thrasea Paetus) of Piso's father, L. Calpurnius Piso. See
page 20 supra, wherein Piso himself also is mentioned as a Caesennius Paetus. That is the true
reason Piso used the literary pseudonym of Flavius; it was not because of his alleged-but untrue and
hardly necessary-adoption by Emperor Flavius Vespasian. He was in fact a Flavian.


Piso humorously used the three basic consonants of the Flavians' Sabinus name, SBN, in revised
sequences for some of his fictional literary identities: (1) BarNaBaS who appears in Acts 4.36 and
there specifically stated as another name of a Joseph (Josephus!), (2) BarNaBazoS in Antiq.
XI.207, (3) BaNnoS in Vita 11, the mirror-image of John the Baptist.


The same device of rearranging consonants was used in recreating Afranius Burrus, the friend of
Seneca (Tacitus, Annals XIII-XIV)-and therefore of Lucius Piso. He was Nero's Praetorian
Prefect, and then several years before Seneca's death, was himself a victim of the emperor. Burrus
reappears as BaRaBbaS, the fictional brigand in Mat. 27.16. (n) (Tacitus, Histories III.6). The
realization that Marcus Antonius Primus was a pseudonym of Arius Calpurnius Piso is based on
these factors: 1. The name in Pliny's letters under which Piso is the latter's wife's grandfather is Arius
Antoninus. 2. According to Suetonius (Lives of the Caesars, Book IV. XXV), Emperor Caius
Caligula appropriated Gaius Piso's wife at Piso's marriage. That would have been about the year
36--the year before Arius' birth. Caligula is known to have been a descendant of Mark Antony
(Marcus Antonius). Seemingly Suetonius was teasing at the questioned paternity of Piso's alter ego
creation. 3. Tacitus' caustic description of Marcus Antonius Primus remind one of Piso. 4. The idea
to call Piso "Antonius Primus" --was his own. It was Piso himself in his Jewish War IV.495 who
first detailed Antonius Primus' campaign for Vespasian against Vitellius. Also Josephus inserts
"Antonius" (himself!) as a centurion who dies at the capture of Jotapata (Jewish War III.333). 5.
Marcus Antonius Primus' colleague in the campaign against Vitellius is named Arrius Varus (Tacitus,
Histories III.6). This is yet another alter ego of Piso himself. In the mid-50's (C.E.), while in his late
teens, young Piso was a prefect of a cohort of legionnaires in the campaign against Vologeses,
King of Armenia--serving there (in Tacitus, Annals XIII.9) under the name of Arrius Varus. 6. His
exploits as General Marcus Antonius Primus account for his absence from Judaea in the years
67-69, between his defeat as Cestius Gallus and his reappearing to assist Titus as the siege of
Jerusalem in 70. Rather than being Vespasian's prisoner in chains, he was his general, advancing on
Rome in his behalf. (o) Tacitus, Histories, III.82-86. Also "the supreme authority was exercised by
Antonius Primus" (Tacitus, Histories, IV.2).
