Alexandrian theory by Alexander Yemelyanov

The Alexandrian Theory is a scientific and philosophical study by Alexander Vladimirovich Yemelyanov. The author examines the history of the New Testament as part of the project of the philosopher Philo of Alexandria.

The theory is published in the e-book "The Philosophical Revolution in Judea: Philo and Jesus" (2016). Yemelyanov also published a draft theory on the Prose portal.<Проза ру.>" (2022).

Some provisions of Yemelyanov's theory:
Philo thinks and writes in Greek, tries to combine Greek philosophy and Judaism.
The time of Philo's life is the heyday and decline of the age of Jewish Hellenism.
With the arrival of the Roman Empire in Alexandria, skirmishes arise between Greeks and Jews, which escalate into a civil war and lead to the death of the Jewish community of Alexandria.
Philo (the ideologist of the Alexandrian Jewish Diaspora) is planning an exodus of the Jews of Alexandria to Judea (unification).
Philo is preparing two "Prophets" — the bearers of a new "idea" that should unite the Jews of the two warring halves.
The first stage of the project (the "philosophical revolution" option) fails. A group of disciples, previously led by Philo as a "philosophical group", is reoriented into a religious sect (the Sect of Peter).
Pavel is recruited to strengthen the "party" of Hellenized Jews and intellectualize them.
