The School of Edessa (~363–489 AD) was a scribal trade hub for Aramaic-speaking merchants and administrators in a multi-faith fortress city, not a religious or Christian institution. No pre-325 AD evidence shows a “Christian” faith—only tribal YHWH worship with no blood rites or myths. The school survived on barter, trade fees, and imperial subsidies, not money from a non-existent church. This study examines how the school operated without money, using pre-1 BCE artifacts and minimal post-1 BCE administrative records. The “Aramaic Gospel” and “Matthew’s scrolls” are church myths—no pre-1 BCE evidence exists. The 489 AD closure was political, not religious, severing a trade network. Urusalim was a multi-faith fortress for trade, not a YHW temple.
No pre-1 BCE artifact mentions a “Christian” faith, “Matthew’s Gospel,” or “Aramaic originals.” The region shows tribal YHWH worship and blood rituals in temple systems.
Analysis: Pre-1 BCE records show tribal YHW worship and blood worship in temple systems, no “Christian” faith or scribal schools for Gospels.
The Edessa school survived on barter and local trade, not money or church funds.
Analysis: The school operated on trade goods and patronage, like tribal YHWH groups sharing resources, no money needed.
Roman and Persian empires subsidized the school for administrative control, not faith.
Analysis: Imperial politics, not religion, kept the school afloat—teachers were state employees.
No artifact from 1–325 AD mentions “Christian,” “Matthew’s Gospel,” or “Aramaic originals.” The faith is a 325 AD invention.
Analysis: The “Christian” narrative is a post-325 AD church myth—no pre-325 AD faith exists.
Aramaic fragments show blood worship in temple systems, not scribal schools or Gospels.
Analysis: Pre-1 BCE records show blood worship, not religious schools or Gospels.
Early YHW worship was simple, tribal, with no schools or myths.
Analysis: The Edessa school was a trade hub, not part of tribal YHW worship, which confirms a real creator through simple principles.
The School of Edessa was a scribal trade hub surviving on barter, trade fees, and imperial subsidies, not money from a non-existent church. No pre-325 AD “Christian” faith exists—all narratives are church inventions. Pre-1 BCE artifacts show tribal YHW worship and blood rituals, no Gospels or schools. The 489 AD closure was political, severing a trade network. The Catholic Church (post-325 AD) fabricated the “Aramaic Gospel” story to claim authenticity. Tribal worship of YHW confirms a real creator through simple, myth-free principles, not the Church’s imperial lies. Urusalim was a fortress for trade, hosting many faiths, not a temple for one deity.
