Dear visitors,
Welcome to our site, which is dedicated to the historical life of Jesus. This site contains a compilation of texts that provide different versions of the key episodes in Christ's life, but it is by no means our intention to challenge the canons of the Catholic Church, which are based on the mythical life of Jesus as told in the four Gospels of the New Testament; our aim is merely to measure the divide between historical Jesus and what he became as the figure of Jesus Christ during the Christian tradition. Upon reading these articles, each one of you will form your own opinion, irrespective of your faith and initial convictions; the important thing remaining in our eyes is for the non-official versions to be distributed, so that they might shake up the existing certainties and that research might continue, so that one day we might know the real truth. The content of this site is still rather modest, but we will regularly add new articles taken from what we have been reading or what we have found on the Internet. You can also help to increase the wealth of material on this site by sending us or suggesting new information on the historical life of Jesus. Happy reading and thanks for visiting.
Lucie and Gwenaëlle Lepiqueur |

he who doubts nothing discovers nothing."

You might be wondering why we called our site 2368.info. There is a simple explanation. Kabbalists use a technique called gematria, which is fairly similar to numerology, except for one difference. Gematria analyses letters and numbers, so that they can be linked to the Divine, man and the world. Using a table of correspondences where each letter of the alphabet has a numerical equivalent, Kabbalists determine the numerical value of a word or phrase in order to work out its hidden meaning. In Greek, the language in which the New Testament was originally written, Jesus Christ said to himself: Ihsous Cristos (Ιησους Χριστος) and its gematria equals... 2368! |
