Re: Was Paul Marcion (in part, at least)?

Any Judaism. The destruction and disappearance of the Jewish halakhah is however surprisingly never a feature of Jewish sects. The Pharisees themselves didn't ask pagans to circumcise or follow kosher customs. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_of_Noah The pauline epistles were intented for...

Re: Was Paul Marcion (in part, at least)?

Could some, much, most or even all the accounts of Paul be accounts about Marcion? or mostly about a Marcionite? The shipping expeditions, etc,? The references to other teachings may be references to subsequent orthodox teachers? Even Peter and James (& John) - who Paul disses - may represent o...

Re: Important milestones in biblical scholarship

Joel Marcus - The way of the Lord was an important work on Mark’s use of the Old Testament and the jewish messianic expectations fulfilled in Mark.

But still waiting for a definitive book on this subject.

Im waiting too for a definitive book on Mark’s use of the Pauline epistles.

Re: Any pre-325 CE writings where Jesus' historicity was doubted?

No Jewish or Persian text has questioned the existence of Esther, who was presented as the wife of the great Emperor Xerxes. Yet there is no debate about Esther's non-historicity. If you can invent an emperor's wife without any historian questioning her existence, then you can easily invent a Galile...

Re: Gospel priority

I assume that Ken is saying that Luke interpreted Mark as an adoptionist text Yes, you're probably right. Sorry, I wrote a reply but it seems to have disappeared into cyberspace. I'm not arguing that Mark intended to imply that Jesus became the Son of God by adoption. I'm arguing that Matthew and L...
