false 136155 8 <p>Many who have read the <em>New York Times</em> bestseller <em>The Da Vinci Code</em> have questions that arise from seven codes-expressed or implied-in Dan Brown's book. In <em>Breaking the Da Vinci Code: Answers to the Questions Everyone's Asking</em>, Darrell Bock, Ph.D., responds to the novelist's claims using central ancient texts and answers the following questions: </p> <ul> <li>Who was Mary Magdalene?</li> <li>Was Jesus Married?</li> <li>Would Jesus Being Single be Un-Jewish?</li> <li>Do the So-Called Secret Gnostic Gospels Help Us Understand Jesus?</li> <li>What Is the Remaining Relevance of <em>The Da Vinci Code</em>?</li></ul> <p>Darrell Bock's research uncovers the origins of these codes by focusing on the 325 years immediately following the birth of Christ, for the claims of <em>The Da Vinci Code</em> rise or fall on the basis of things emerging from this period. <em>Breaking the Da Vinci Code</em>, now available in trade paper, distinguishes fictitious entertainment from historical elements of the Christian faith. For by seeing these differences, one can break the Da Vinci code. </p> 131214 2004 Breaking the Da Vinci Code: Answers to the Questions Everyone's Asking total:53|5:8|4:12|3:21|2:8|1:4| 53 171 73 8 3 0 false false Tue May 05 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Fri May 01 23:01:53 -0700 2009 Tue May 05 20:28:39 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon May 18 10:14:46 -0700 2009 Mon May 18 10:16:49 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Aug 19 11:49:51 -0700 2009 Mon May 04 13:18:04 -0700 2009 Wed Aug 19 11:49:51 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sun Feb 10 19:27:57 -0800 2008 Sun Feb 10 19:29:27 -0800 2008
