Re: Jesus' home in Capernaum?

https://biblehub.com/interlinear/mark/2.htm and https://biblehub.com/greek/oiko__3624.htm That phrase "ἐν οἴκῳ ἐστίν" rendered in the interlinear as "in (the)-house he-is" (I added dashes). The noun "house" is in the nominative case, so it doesn't necessarily mean &quo...

Re: Book of Parables

Sometimes it is as simple as not letting oneself get emotionally invested in an interpretation, no matter how well it "fits" our expectations. Make a mental note, stash them in the back of the mind to ruminate. Keep track of the points of evidence (eg, "This manuscript, which is older...

Re: Book of Parables

Hi Guys, I've been looking at the book of Enoch. Is the book of Parables chapters 37-71 missing from DSS? From wiki DSS chapters 2-14, 30-36, 76-93, 106-7. So Parables is a later work? Thanks What intrigues many about it is the fact that the language resembles language about Jesus Christ in the Gos...

Re: Earlier dating of Revelation

I was sure I had summarized the sources of Revelation, per R H Charles, in a post on FRDB, that was not coming up. Finally located a summary on Reddit: (from a 2012 post to Free Ratio Discussion Board that did not come up when I queried Kirby's search engine): Per Robert Henry Charles, (ICC Commenta...

Re: Earlier dating of Revelation

Hello Forum! ... Wondered your opinion of an earlier dating of Revelation, based on the 7 Kings 17:10-11 corresponding to roman emperors. That'd put it as written in 68/69 under Galba and Otho. As opposed to traditional dating 95 ce Domitian. Do you think that's possible? The christology seems unde...

Re: Mark's use of Philo

Understanding narrative criticism was something I took a stab at over 10 years ago. The following is based mainly on Stephen D Moore 's Post Structuralism and the New Testament (1994). "in its more ambitious forms, [a Post Structuralist approach] attempts to analyze biblical texts as products o...

With the image of this coin on the left in mind, and if she was an actress, what CNN anchor has the perfect look to play Cleopatra in a film?
