Jean Elbert, (1709, 1773) was a con artist in Jerusalem.
Jean believed in Rosicrucianism.
He lived a life of poverty. He was able to eat and sleep under a shelter, but ended with having no possession at all. He lived as an outcast. To tell the truth, in Jerusalem, he gained the trust or the friendship of no one. People saw Jean as cultivated, eager to read and learn when possible, and mastering writing, which he did for friends. He was force of nature, and people saw in their body and beauty the incarnation of a god. He was iron-willed, achieving any goal he set.
Jean, 51 years old, con artist, became the new leader of the family.
13 years later, Jean decided to settle somewhere else. He packed a few possessions and departed for a new place. The departure was sponsored by a local figure that gave him a recommandation, so he would be welcomed wherever he went. The family settled in Jerusalem. Later, Jean was praised for his work. The same day, Jean drew a precise map of his location.
Jean died of exhaustion after a normal day of work.
