Re: Easter, Eostre
In other words, what is now called in English "Easter," aka Resurrection Sunday, aka Pasch, had been long observed before the time of Bede. (Perhaps a better example of a mix of pagan, in the neutral connotation of rural, and non-pagan, as used in some religion-language, might be the harve...

Re: Melchizedek 11Q13
"When did Christianity begin?"--ewhandler's question. I used (above) the conventional definition of "Christianity," a religion started in the first century ad/ce. Christians obviously value, e.g., the Book of Genesis and also Job and others. But, generally, I think, these books, ...

Re: γυμνὸς or γυμνοὶ in Clement's Letter to Theodore?
This may have been penned by Morton Smith, who was an artist, who had time to practice, and who had photos and first-hand experience of mss from the 18th century. Or possibly, though I consider it much less likely--in part because who would he find and additionally who would he trust?--an accomplice...

Re: Agamemnon Tselikas’ Handwriting Analysis Report Did Morton Smith Forge "Secret Mark"?
That particular type toxic attempted defense of M. Smith may not be what M. Smith wished for, nor would have appreciated. As to Martijn, he asserted his that view was supported by Coptic dictionaries, yet those same dictionaries were written by Coptic scholars who would not ever accept this dating o...
