I have to say that I think that Colossians was written in responce to the essesnes. From my study of the essesnes the list of problems that Paul has seems to hit several of the essesnian beliefs. If the synogue in Colossi was essesnian then the essesnes would have much influeance with the people. We have seen how that Jews from the synogue have caused Paul trouble before, why not the essesnes?
