to Hakeem, So there is no Nazarene in gMark and no prophecy about a Nazorean or a Nazarene in the books of the prophets. For your first sentence, you are absolutely right. gMark has no 'Nazorean', gMatthew has only 'Nazorean', gLuke has one 'Nazorean' and two 'Nazarene'. gJohn has four 'Nazorean' a...

Jesus would be known as a false prophet, a liar and idiot since c 30 CE because he would not have been raised from the dead after being buried for three days in the time of Pilate. That sentiment appear to be supported by Julian the Apostate's writings. It is, I think, expedient to set forth to all...
