Re: Apologists Now! God I Love the Sound of Psalms in the Mo

Underlining mine: Ben, have you ever known Carlson to write an article arguing for error ? In general, one would get the impression from Carlson's article that there are no errors in GMatthew's genealogy. The only Bible story I'm more familiar with than the ending of GMark is the GMatthew genealogy...

Re: Joseph of Arimathea.

JW : 1 Samuel 1.19, the name of the city appears to be = הָרָמָתָה which is very close to what you are looking for. Why didn't you invoke that instead of 1:1? I did (underlining added): ...rendered as Ramathaim-Zophim ( הָרָמָתַ֛יִם צוֹפִ֖ים ) in 1 Samuel 1.1 (1 Kingdoms 1.1 LXX: Αρμαθαιμ Σιφα ), o...

Re: Joseph of Arimathea.

JW : @Ben = I will get back to you with a response to your last post but I have to confess that the "Ramah" of 1:19 is a very important location in the Jewish Bible because it is where Samuel is from and he anointed King David. "Mark" (author) seems to want to show that his Jesu...
