My TF page also has the obvious claims/arguments about how this may or may not be comparable. Pallas was famous.
Arguably this pushes the question more towards how well known Jesus was, rather than how impossible the reference is on its own, independent of that.

Re: John the Baptist, redivivus of a 2015 article
Sure. References from Josephus similar to the phrase "one whose name was James," where there is also no noun phrase that it modifies, include Ant. 10.6.1, Ant. 11.5.4, Ant. 14.9.4, and Life 56.

Re: back to the drawing board? the missing sondergut Marcion
I would like it if the Beginning of the Gospel of Christ Jesus text had al kinds of material that was omitted from the other gospel texts. 'The spirit is willing, but the evidence is weak.' Help my unbelief here. Does the idea that there was this kind of material in it have anything going for it?

Re: back to the drawing board? the missing sondergut Marcion
Can we say anything about what was in the gospel attributed to Paul that can shed more light on the subject?Secret Alias wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2024 2:37 pm What is the point of discussing Luke in relation to Marcion? What is the value in this? They didn't think Luke wrote the gospel. They attributed that to Paul THE apostle.
