The connection of Paul with "the baptism of John", even if in a convoluted way ( that John is made a gentilizer in virtue of being the teacher of the gentilizer called Apollos), is very much suspected, docet Vinzent in Christ's Torah . Because also Jesus has been connected artificially (an...

This is a thought on the "Gospel priority":

It cannot be a coincidence that the Markan priority has been abandoned especially by scholars and/or amateurs who have seen the prominent role of Marcionites in the fabrication of the "pauline" epistles.

Trobisch is an example.

Of course Luke derived from *Ev the idea of a spiritual entity descending on the earth in 3:2:


The "word of God" is the Logos.

Ken, one of the reasons Secret Mark can persuade about its authenticity is that it gives a detailed explanation about what Jesus went to do in Jericho (an explanation that is absent in Mark).

I think that " doubtless " in the Jesus's answer is a strong clue pointing to an explanation found inside the story itself of the gospel of Luke, not assumed a priori external to that gospel (i.e. possibly in Mark). " Doubtless " in Jesus's answer explains also why *Ev were to c...

I think that "doubtless" in the Jesus's answer is a strong clue pointing to an explanation found inside the story itself of the gospel of Luke, not assumed a priori external to that gospel (i.e. possibly in Mark).

Continuing on my previous post: It seems to me that the right sequence would be: 1) Jesus ben Sapphat ("Damneus") is made temporarily high priest by Herod Agrippas II. 2) Hearsay about Jesus being accused of being not a legitimate high priest. 3) 1 Clement and Hebrews arguing for Jesus cel...

. When Jesus says " Doubtless you will tell me ...whatever we have heard done at Capharnaum ...'” -- how can Jesus be so doubtless that they will mention Capharnaum--and not Sepphoris, or Tiberias, or even Chorazin and Bethsaida, which (later in the gospel) Jesus explicitly mentions performing...

Giuseppe -- and maybe consider reading the NT letter of Hebrews as an apologia of Jesus supporters to having an Aaronic-ancestry claim discredited and gone? indeed Hebrews talks about Jesus entering in the heaven as a celestial high priest. And in Hegesippus's legend, James the Just seems to be inv...
