[Background here.]
This manuscript is supposedly from St Mark’s Gospel - 5:15-18. The photo, which is doing the blog rounds, is posted and discussed here.

Daily Readings
One day, the Catholic Church will have to come clean and admit that it made all this nonsense up.
Does it never cross your mind to wonder why a group such as the Essenes, who existed before, during and after the supposed time of Jesus make NO mention of him whatsoever?
Even if they asserted that he was a fraud, they would have said/written something. But , no. Not a peep.
‘Sigh’
Silly people.
