Re: What is the correct date for Jesus last supper/passover?

If you want a 'correct' answer, why do you seek an answer according to your 'best' calculation. I am trying to rule out/in my best 'calculation' with mathematical certainty. I don't have the astronomical/mathematical skills to convert the days of the week with the Creator's Calendar for 14th Abib, ...

Re: Identities Verification.

Discerning Who Nathanael Was The name Nathanael substitutes for particular sect identities because if their details and status were known, opponents could perceive precisely who they and others were and without any irregularity, target them. Nathanael was a substitute name for the apostles Simon of...

Re: "James the Just": What is the origin of the phrase?

"Significantly, in the Commentary, Origen does not ascribe to Josephus the use of the name James the just: he only mentions the appellation James brother of Jesus called Christ." --Sabrina Inowlocki p.26 Origen's Comm in Matthew X.17 uses righteousness to refer to or describe James, twice...

Re: Josephus Antiquities 20.200 on James: The scholars who doubt

I've been collecting bibliographic references to academics who challenge the authenticity (at least partially) of Josephus' Antiquities 20.200 (20.9.1) on James the brother of Jesus. I regard the passage as inauthentic myself, as I've noted elsewhere. But I've been trying to survey to see who else ...

Coexisting Gospel Editions Corollary. Expecting to be harried by opposing religious, governmental and commercial hierarchies, the Gospel was written circumspectly in relation to certain identities being known in certitude to the general public, to avoid christian initiates being charged with bringi...

Re: James, Peter and John in Galatians

Up to his death in April, A.D. 70¹ and continuing after, the Bishop of Jerusalem didn't have his full name certified in the gospel, and such is the opacity of the fellowship by not clearly identifying him, James, 'the brother of the Lord' is not known today as James son of Zebedee.

James, Peter and John in Galatians

In Galatians, Paul chronicles the occasions and relates the circumstances that he consulted with Peter the chief apostle, and James the bishop, and John the theologian. Paul names all three of Jesus' archbishops in a clandestine fashion. The passage is not worded in the well-known gospel structure o...
