Re: Even Joseph Turmel concluded that Matthew had falsified *Ev
Giuseppe, you may feel "justified to suspect" as you wish, but the fact remains that several scholars of various backgrounds interpret Marcion as having altered a pre-existing gLuke.

Andrew, as you know, we don't have all traditions that were available to some ancients. For example, text finds near Jericho mentioned by Origen (and that same find may have also been later mentioned by Joseph [of Tiberias?] in Hypomnestikon and also the many texts mentioned by 9th-century Timothy I...

Re: HISTORY AND THE GOSPEL JESUS
Anyway, I think he was too late to be the Qumran-view Wicked Priest, because
a) paleographic estimates
b) C14 date ranges

Re: HISTORY AND THE GOSPEL JESUS
The civil war between his father and his uncle split the populace, so a claim that the masses supported him is iffy. Also, the proposal, which I think is mistaken, that he was called "The Wicked Priest" in 4QpesherNahum, if you accept it, hardly helps your story. And, if he was spur for NT...
