Re: Does anyone have On the Historicity of Jesus yet?

Adam, I'm sure a conservative will just argue that: A) The "Mark" of Acts 15:37-40 wrote the gospel attributed to "Mark." B) That after this split "Mark" was "rehabilitated" while acting as an "interpreter" for Peter in Rome. C) Paul worked with gent...

Re: Against the Idiotic Belief that Our Texts Are Pristine

Even all the different text types discovered among the DSS doesn't phase conservatives. If biblical mss exist that conform to the MT (or close) then they will say "Ah Haa! The 'God Breathed' text type (the MT) has been found, SO, all the others MUST be corruptions!" Amazing how rational th...

I once posted my "apologetical" table of Greek prepositions and which cases you are most likely to find them in (I do see exceptions occasionally): English transliteration [/b] Basic [/b] Genitive (of -) [/b] Ablative (from -) [/b] Dative (in -) [/b] Locative (to -) [/b] Instrumental (by -...

Re: About a 'medieval heretic gospel'...

Excuse me, but I have a question to do all you. I read in this interview these words of prof Price about a suggestive ''medieval heretic gospel'' but unfortunately without naming it. ...I think of how I once heard an adolescent girl in my church retell a story I had once recounted from a medieval h...

Re: About a 'medieval heretic gospel'...

I tried to look something up on this without much luck. The closest I could get was the Gospel of Barnabas, which is clearly medieval, but in that one Jesus is a prophet of God, and it condemns anyone who calls him "son of god." If I am understanding Price's allusion correctly, in this med...

Re: Book - Parables of Enoch: A Paradigm Shift

Did you see Goodacre now raises suspicions about the Nag Hammadi Discovery? He's an interesting case. No, I hadn't. Is he just questioning the "cover story" that had been put out over circumstances of the discovery, or is he questioning the authenticity of the books? If the former, he's p...

The earliest followers of Jesus were following a man with an inclusive idea. The day of judgment (the Day of the LORD) was coming when the messiah would establish a bountiful kingdom of God on earth in the region known in old times as the Land of Canaan (essentially southern Syria and the areas pop...
