Klinghardt, Matthias. The Oldest Gospel: A Missing Link in New Testament Scholarship, Kindle Edition I noticed something when reading a footnote of Couchcloud--he says that in Ephram's copy of the Evangelion has "Bethsaida" here instead of Nazara or Nazareth. Curiouser and curiouser. Here...

Re: Carrier - Goodacre conversation on the historicity of Jesus

Re: Peter Schäfer on the origin of the accusation against Jesus of being a Samaritan

:cheers: The great finding of C.W. Leadbeater in “The Christian Creed” (1898), p. 77-81 puts definitively an end to the enigma “Why the mention of Pilate in the Gospels?”: Definitive endings ain't what they used to be. Hence that is the probable reason why Pilate entered in the Gospel "traditi...
