    The document describes an alternative story about the lost years of Jesus Christ according to some researchers in Japan. It claims that Jesus traveled to Japan after escaping crucifixion and lived in a village called Herai, where he died at age 106 and was buried alongside his brother. The story was reportedly documented in an ancient manuscript discovered in 1935, though the original was destroyed. Some evidence like an ancient song and linguistic connections between "Herai" and Hebrew give some credibility to the legend.

    A Surprising Japanese Interpretation of the Lost Years of Jesus Christ

    (Read the article on one page)

    Most Christians believe that Jesus was born and died in the Middle East. However, there is a small group
    of people in Japan who believe a completely different story.

    Some Japanese researchers think that Jesus history is different from what is generally believed. This
    alternative version of Christs story was forgotten until 1935, when Kiyomaro Takeuchi (Takenouchi)
    reportedly discovered an ancient document in Ibaraki Prefecture in Japan. The text of the manuscript
    presented a shocking tale. It says that Jesus was buried in Herai Village in the Aomori district in Japan.

    Moreover, the document declares that he was buried at the site with his brother. The text looked very
    authentic and there was no reason to doubt that it could be an original. Nonetheless, the Japanese
    government decided to ban the document from public view. It became a part of the collection of the
    museum in Tokyo which was bombed during World War II. All of the museums archives were
    destroyed; however the Takeuchi family had made copies of the ancient text before they informed
    officials of the discovery. These copies became the gates to a forgotten legend in Japan.

    The Legendary Tomb

    One of the copies of the document is now located in a small museum in Shingo Village (traditionally
    known as Herai) near the famous Tomb of Jesus. Analysis of the text proved that it was originally
    written in ancient Japanese. Nowadays, not many people have enough knowledge on this type of writing
    to read it themselves, but it is also almost impossible to fake such a manuscript.

    Moreover, the first linguistic research proved that the traditional name ''Herai'' doesn't belong to the
    Japanese language, but it seems to be surprisingly similar to the word ''Hebrai'', meaning ''Hebrew''. In
    the ancient Hebrew language the word ''Herai'' resembles the phrase ''a mountain''.

    According to the description posted near the tomb:


    ''When Jesus Christ was 21 years old, he came to Japan and pursued knowledge of divinity for 12 years.
    He went back to Judea at age 33 and engaged in his mission. However, at that time, people in Judea
    would not accept Christ's preaching. Instead, they arrested him and tried to crucify him on a cross. His
    younger brother, Isukiri casually took Christ's place and ended his life on the cross.
    Christ, who escaped the crucifixion, went through the ups and downs of travel, and again came to Japan.
    He settled right here in what is now called Herai Village, and died at the age of 106. On this holy ground,
    there is dedicated a burial mound on the right to deify Christ, and a grave on the left to deify Isukiri.''

    Another Version of the Story

    Another version of the story is known from the book Thiaoouba Prophecy by Michel Desmarquet, who
    tried to find the real story of Jesus in Japan. According to the story he described, Jesus left home at age
    14 and arrived to Japan when he was 50 years old. There, he got married and had three daughters. He
    supposedly taught his rules on living, but it seems that during his travels through Asia, his teachings
    became more global than before. He reportedly lived in Herai for around 45 years and died there when
    he was about 100 years old. The Japanese version of his story described his brother as two years
    younger than him. They were said to be buried at the same site.
    Archaeologists have looked for evidence such as bones, teeth, or artifacts, which could suggest the
    existence of a burial at this place. Unfortunately, nothing like this had been found so far. The burial is
    located on a mountain and it is shaped by the soil. Nowadays, there are also Christian crosses and other
    features related to Christian symbolism.

    The most interesting evidence confirming the strange connection between the Japanese and Hebrew
    languages is an ancient song that has been known in Herai for the last 2000 years. It contains the lyrics
    "Nanya Do Yara Nanya Do Nasareno Nanya Do Yara", which means "What is it? What's happening?
    What are you going to do?"
