Has anyone heard of this "lost Jesus story" from the Dead Sea Scrolls? Is it possible or just a fake story?

Question

My friend told me that there's this "lost story" about Jesus in the Dead Sea Scrolls from when he was teenager...the story was he and a friend were on a roof and they were getting into an argument because Jesus's friend was questioning Jesus about how his mother (Mary) couldve been a virgin when she was pregnant and so the friend was starting to doubt Jesus so he started badmouthing Mary and calling her a w***e and such. This got Jesus really steamed so he shoved is friend in anger but ACCIDENTALLY Jesus pushed his friend off the roof of the building they were on and killed him.

Well moral of the story being, Jesus felt so guilty and remorseful about the accidental death that it became the inspiration for him to preach about unconditional love, forgiveness, and peace.

I forgot where my friend said he heard this from. I think it may have been a tv special or a book or something.

Anyone else heard of this and where?

Answer 1

Check out "the Other Bible" edited by Willis Barnstone (there are 2 infant jesus gospels in this book) . He covers the Gnostic Scriptures, Kabbalah, Christian Apocrypha, Jewish Pseudepigrapha and other Ancient Esoteric Texts that didn't make it into the bible during the Council of Nicea.

Elaine Pagels has published several books "The Gnostic Gospels", "the Gospel of Thomas" and many other studies of the deadsea scrolls.

There is a world of information out there, seek and ye shall find.

Answer 2

The story is not as you say at all but you'll find it in one of the 'Infancy Gospel of Jesus'.

Answer 3

I have heard of a "lost story" of Jesus, but not that version. In the version I heard about it portrays Jesus as more human in that he had a wild side before he accepted his role as savior, it even says that he had a wife. All blasphemy, just another attempt to cast a negative light on the most positive light the world has ever known.

Answer 4

To the best of my knowledge, the Dead Sea scrolls do not mention Jesus at all.

Answer 5

I really doubt it's real. That doesn't sound like Jesus.  

Answer 6

That is B.S, pretty much. Though the dead sea scrolls would be the right time period.

Nothing that explicitly mentioned.

Answer 7

what you are actually referring to is the Infancy Gospel of Thomas. It shows Jesus as a violent child using weird powers and has no Biblical  basis.  

Answer 8

I read something similar a long time ago, but in the version I read Jesus was going to be punished for the death of his friend, so he raised him from the dead.  

I've also read that there is some historical evidence that suggests some of the writings in the scrolls from Nag Hammadi (sp?) were actually written by Jesus.  These were some of the writings which were judged as heresy by the people who assembled the bible.
