Re: Syndication
This explains the difference between an Irenaeus and a Canonical Gospel. Irenaeus could be explicit and frank in his own rejection of marcionism: "I hate Marcion and I don't like everything written by him". A Canonical Gospel couldn't be so explicit and frank, since it worked on the same n...

Re: Syndication
They wrote their strips - pericopes which were then sent to editors and from which subsequent editions were created - *Ev, Mark, Matthew, John, Luke. Or vice versa - I don't insist on this order. But I insist on the process. I start to see where the theological dispute enters in your scenario: the ...

Re: Gospel priority
cf. with the example he uses to explain fatigue: continuity errors in movies. E.g. a prop which moves around incongruously during a conversation, things like that. surely a good example in such sense, of a continuity error as in the movies, is the omission by Matthew of the miracle of the healing o...

Re: John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
Guiseppe's effort to remove Jesus from the time of Pilate has been based on his interpretation of Greek and/or on a different and contradictory interpretation of Hebrew, and on an effort to date Jesus earlier, to the era of Jannaeus (a well-known error) and, on an effort, contradictorily, to date J...

Re: John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
It is surprising that, at least for a time, a Gospel (*Ev) is more faithful to historical reality than a historian (Josephus) ! Josephus was lying when he reported that John of Gischala feared only the his [of Josephus] influence on the "Galileans". *Ev 7:18-19 reported the historical trut...

Re: External evidence that (Matthew and) canonical Luke comes after *Ev
Pilate is present in Ant.- the only reliable source on Jesus fo authors of the letters Yes but in connection with the unnamed Samaritan Impostor. Once the unnamed Samaritan Impostor slain by Pilate was confused with a heresiarch of the Docetist kind (Simon Magus and/or Dositheus and/or Menander), t...

Re: External evidence that (Matthew and) canonical Luke comes after *Ev
1 Ti is against all the gospels yet 1 Timothy mentions Pilate who is part and parcel of the same fiction hence hardly that put the epistle against all the gospels. The myths may be the Gnostic mirror of the Lukan and Matthean genealogies: the speculations on the emanation of the Aeons etc. Even if ...

Re: John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
This finding gives a different reconstruction of the Origins, one where Jesus ben Sapphat was originally an enemy of John of Gischala and only later he received the his "baptism", i.e. when Jesus ben Sapphat abandoned the Galilee and worked under the high command of John of Gischala during...

John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
I see that the following passage in *Ev: 18 And when John the Baptist heard about all these things, he was scandalized. 19 And John calling unto him a certain two of his disciples sent them to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that cometh? or look we for another? (*Ev 7:18-19) ...is based on Vita 25 of Jos...

Re: Every time Paul mentions Mark, he also mentions Luke
he would be reluctant to remove material from his corrected Luke which was paralleled in Matthew and/or Mark. I can understand a Marcion interested to follow Mark (being Mark a gentilizing gospel, afterall, in virtue of the principle similis cum similibus ), but I can't understand how Marcion could...
