how does ehrman know that jesus' teaching about love go back to him?

BDEhrman September 17, 2022 at 5:24 pm - Reply I think a lot of them go back to him; it has to be decided on a case by case basis of course — and that leads to problems. E.g., both the Parable of the Good Samaritan and that of the Sheep and Goats are found in only one source. Ugh! Well, decisions ha...

Re: Was there a lost ending of Mark?

Given that Jesus says that he will "go ahead of" the disciples to Galilee in Mk. 14:28 and that the young man in the empty tomb in 16:7 says, "There you will see him, just as he told you,” in what sense " i will go ahead of you" ? is he saying "i will go ahead of you, ...

Re: Did common early Christians know much of the gospel narratives?

"There you will see him, just as he told you."

Thats not what mark has him say. "I will go ahead of you to galilee"

Re: 1 Cor 10:20, “they sacrifice to demons”

Off topic question: "what he told them earlier that the food is not tainted by having been offered to an idol because the idols do not represent anything real (i.e., the pagan gods do not exist)" is not the kosher and non-kosher thing related to metaphysical? you dont eat this type of meat...
