The Lost Tomb of Jesus (2007) is an arch-fi documentary by Simcha Jacobovici.

Abstract

The arch-fi documentary was directed by Canadian film maker Simcha Jacobovici and produced by Felix Golubev and Ric Esther Bienstock, while James Cameron served as executive producer.

The documentary made the sensational claim that a Jerusalem tomb (the so-called Talpiot Tomb) contained the ossuaries of Jesus and his family, namely, “Jeshua bar Yehosef” [Jesus son of Joseph], his wife “Mariamene” [=Mary Magdalene], his son “Yehudah bar Yeshua” [Judah son of Jesus], his mother “Maria” [=Mary of Nazareth], his brother “Yose,” and a relative, “Matya.”

The documentary also claimed that the ossuary, with the inscription “James son of Joseph, brother of Jesus” and presented to the public by the Discovery Channel on October 21, 2002, was also connected to the “Jesus Tomb.” On June 18, 2003, however, a report by the Israeli Antiquities Authority had concluded that the inscription on the “James ossuary” was a modern forgery.

Editions and translations

Broadcast on March 4, 2007, by the Discovery Channel in the United States, and Vision TV in Canada.
