Hiding out in Baghdad with his family, the good priest was being followed by assassins from both the Christian and Jewish faiths. Fleeing for his life to Lebanon, he camped there with his family in a refugee camp. But he and his family were found by the Jewish military, who attacked the camp and slaughtered most of the refugees. Barely escaping the massacre with his family, he fled into the night, at the cost of losing the scrolls. Shortly afterward, the priest and his family were murdered by a terrorist gang who machine-gunned them down in hatred and anger. Only the 36 chapters which he had translated survived; the fate of the original scrolls is unknown. They have been translated into English, and today are available in a small book called The Ta/mud of Jmmanuel. Published by Wild Flower Press in America, it also comes with a companion book called Celestial Teachings, written by Dr. James Deardorff, a Christian historian. This book is the result of six years of study on The Talmud of Jmmanuel to determine its validity. The Lord's Prayer In school and in church most of us learned the Lord's Prayer. In The Talmud of Jmmanuel we read it in a slightly different way. Jmmanuel was trying to teach those around him how to become aware of the spirit within us and our connection to Creation.

Being misunderstood, the Lord's Prayer was written down in The Talmud of Jmmanuel the way that Jmmanuel had first spoken and taught it to his disciples. It was a meditation called My Spirit. Here is the Lord's Prayer in its original form, taken from The Talmud of Jmmanuel, the original writings of Jmmanuel. (Reprinted with
