https://www.richardcarrier.info/archives/27782 Now, Allen could have made a savvier argument here, which is the one I make: that we do not actually know for sure Eusebius did it; it could have been his tutor Pamphilus, decades before Eusebius even read the manuscript of the Antiquities that Pamphil...

I know it's a sketchy site, but it's a quick and easy way to find claims like these. https://www.gotquestions.org/seventy-sevens.html So, 483 years x 360 days = 173,880 days. This is the equivalent of 476 years and 25 days, using our modern Gregorian calendar’s 365-day year. As for our starting poi...

perhaps it was Marcion himself that dropped Bethsaida from the Evangelion i.e. Ephraim had a copy of the Evangelion prior to Marcion dropping Bethsaida from his copy of this early gospel. Sure, or somebody dropped Nazareth from the Evangelion as part of an evolving theology which was trying to dist...

If the Evangelion originally had Bethsaida instead of Nazara.... when was the change made...

Klinghardt, Matthias. The Oldest Gospel: A Missing Link in New Testament Scholarship, Kindle Edition. Looks like Jason BeDuhn also has "Nazara". Things that make you go "hmmm....." Perhaps Ben Smith can opine here? Or vocasante, if you've got the big ears on? 04","16&q...

[ Nazara entered the Jesus tradition before Nazareth did. FWIW Marcion's Evangelion (which is our earliest witness to the text of Luke) has "Nazareth", not "Nazara". Tertullian doesn't note a difference in place name with his copy of Luke. Matthias Klinghardt, in The Oldest Gosp...
