Re: The Dead Sea Scrolls & the New Testament
And this was always a mountainman strategy - "all scholarship is agenda driven so therefore chose my theory!" No, JohnT at least most scholarship isn't disproved by carbondating. That's the problem. It might be difficult for some to find unimpeachable scholarship. Ok fine. But that doesn't clear a path toward a disproved hypothesis. You can chose between any number of partners except for dead ones. Can't marry a dead person.

Huller is a good example of the; "Curse of the Scrolls".Secret Alias wrote:Why not start by giving up on the least likely and in fact nearly impossible theory - i.e. Eisenman's - and go through the list on your own and come to a new appreciation of the evidence? Eisenman's theory won't work so it is pointless to try and make this a binary 'either/or' with one or two respected scholars and Eisenman. It's simply a matter of throwing out the garbage and working from what's not rotten in the fridge.Of the list below who would you say is the most respected researcher without an ax to grind.
Huller acts like he knows what he is talking about but he has no clue that Shiffman's theory has been totally blown out of the water by C-14 testing.
The irony of it all maybe hilarious to some but to me it is just pathetically sad, so sad.

Do you not know, brothers and sisters—for I am speaking to those who know the law—that the law has authority over someone only as long as that person lives? 2For example, by law a married woman is bound to her husband as long as he is alive, but if her husband dies, she is released from the law that binds her to him. 3So then, if she has sexual relations with another man while her husband is still alive, she is called an adulteress. But if her husband dies, she is released from that law and is not an adulteress if she marries another man.http://biblehub.com/niv/romans/7.htm
