Re: No "Descending" - The Myth About Marcion's Incipit

In other words, only the Gnostic position is credible and only neo-athiests are smart enough to understand early Christian history? my problem with you is that you are too much irrationally * hostile to Marcion, to talk objectively about the synoptic question with Mcn in it. * : excessive religious...

Re: No "Descending" - The Myth About Marcion's Incipit

John T is only spreading right-wing apologist drivel, as do all Markan Prioritists and Judean Originists.

Re: No "Descending" - The Myth About Marcion's Incipit

"The last possibility is the most likely" as kind concession to apologists, isn't it? Kunigunde, do you believe really that Klinghardt isn't doing here a timide concession to apologists to exorcise suspicions about a possible "hidden agenda" behind his research on Marcion ? Not ...

Re: The Matthean Posteriority Hypothesis

The question is whether or not Irenaeus and his gang reduced the number of options from the previous generation, reduced them down to Mark through John. If they did, this question of Matthean posterity or Markan priority takes on a whole different perspective. Similarly, if the 4-Gospel Book evolve...

Re: Mark used *Ev

One of the most interesting thoughts is Mark is a 'snapshot' of an early/proto version of Luke (ie the *Ev) Mark, then, would not be first at all but a summarising second In that reading the Luke we have is so developed on from this barely anything original would remain? This can be used to get rid...
