If Jesus [came] from a perfect pious Jewish family ...then confuted [would be] the original Gnostic apostles who [had] preached that Jesus is the son of an alien god (not the god of the Jews).

The entire process behind the Gospels is [according to Giuseppe] called "re-judaization" of Jesus: a new Jewish-Christian exegesis of the OT scriptures against the original Gnostic anti-Jewish exegesis of the scriptures.

I think those are admirable things to investigate, and propose and/or defend; but I don't think you can or should do that with a series of posts of cherry-picked single verses, lines, or phrases.
Precisely. I should specify only in one thread all the possible interpretations under that my preferred line of inquiry. So possibly only who is interested in a positive sense may reply there.
