Re: The Date of Marcion
Thank you for this post, Ken. It's an interesting point about Basilides using Luke.
In the phrase Marcion's Evangelion, what relationship is there between Marcion and Evangelion?

Re: The Date of Marcion
The Anti-Marcionite Prologue appears to make Marcion contemporary with John and opposed by him: https://www.tertullian.org/fathers/anti_marcionite_prologues.htm The Gospel of John was revealed and given to the churches by John while still in the body, just as Papias of Hieropolis, the close disciple...

Re: The Date of Marcion
Irenaeus makes Cerinthus and Marcion parallel in more ways than just some of their doctrine (AH 3.3.4): But Polycarp also was not only instructed by apostles, and conversed with many who had seen Christ, but was also, by apostles in Asia, appointed bishop of the Church in Smyrna, whom I also saw in ...

Re: The Date of Marcion
Irenaeus writes: "Cerdo was one who took his system from the followers of Simon, and came to live at Rome in the time of Hyginus [traditionally 136-142], who held the ninth place in the episcopal succession" (Adv. Haer. 1.27.1) "Marcion of Pontus succeeded" Cerdo (Adv. Haer. 1.27...

Re: The Date of Marcion
This is often quoted here ( Against Marcion 1.19): Well, but our god, say the Marcionites, although he did not manifest himself from the beginning and by means of the creation, has yet revealed himself in Christ Jesus. A book will be devoted to Christ, treating of His entire state; for it is desirab...

Re: Mark's dependence on Luke
I'm trying to be charitable here, but you're giving me nothing to work with. Quote something. Shoot your shot.

Re: The Date of Marcion
Tertullian wrote in "The Prescription against Heretics": http://www.earlychristianwritings.com/text/tertullian11.html Where was Marcion then, that shipmaster of Pontus, the zealous student of Stoicism? Where was Valentinus then, the disciple of Platonism? For it is evident that those men ...

Re: Any pre-325 CE writings where Jesus' historicity was doubted?
Again in this case, most of the comment exploring the interpretation also came from me at the time. Likewise, it can be discussed, but I don't know if I would defend what I wrote then. Yes, there are no doubt there are texts that people can point to (which they have done in this thread) where the i...
