Re: BeDuhn's Greek Evangelion edition publicly archived
This work has been accepted for consideration at JOHD and is now going through the peer-review process. While their metadata will filter into catalogs eventually via OA indices, I thought members of this forum might like to know how to access and catalog the pre-prints in advance. By way of making ...

Dutch Radicals call for papers
The academic journal Open Theology has a call for papers on the Dutch Radical School and Paul. Here's the link: https://www.degruyter.com/journal/key/opth/html And here is the posting: "Open Theology” (https://www.degruyter.com/opth) invites submissions for the topical issue "Doubting Paul...

Re: Cerdo as Anti-Christ
This does not make sense to me. Clement would be critical of Cerdo. This paragraph associates love of God with leaving the body (death). It seems that Clement wants to preserve the ambivalence that Paul intended in that verse by highlighting the good in living and in dying. That's hardly a fitting c...

Re: Marcionites and Clement's Alexandrian Community
I don't see why Clement would be responding to Tertullian here. Generally, women were expected to be weak and not fight in wars. So when writers notice that in other nations, the women do fight in wars, they feel the need to explain it. Their explanation is to conflate their gendered prejudices with...

Re: Use of Jewish Scriptures or Not, and Paul vs No Paul, in the time of Marcion
Hey mlinssen, where and how did you generate that string of all the manuscript variants for the verse? I have never seen that. The box starting with docID="10062" gaNum="P62">|και τ̣ο φορτιον μου ελα̣[φ][ρο]ν εστιν .

Re: Carrier, 1 Clement and the gospels
MrMacSon, 1 Clement 47.2 could be referring to 1 Corinthians as a 'gospel,' since the issue of factionalism comes up immediately in 1:10 (after the obligatory greetings and thanksgiving). Or it could be referring to the message contained there. It is difficult to know what do with the redundancy of ...

Re: Book Of Elchasai; Kitos War's End Begins Christianity
Yakovzutolmai, could you post some of your resources on the Kitos War? I have searched before and found the secondary lit on this war to be extremely thin. Maybe there are non-English books on it. Anything you have I would appreciate.

Re: The fallacy of proto-gospels and layered traditions
Oh don't get me started on Perrin's work. Horman's book is nothing like that. I would not get too hung up on the exoteric/esoteric argument. That is just an appendix at the back of the book. He has otherwise argued, on the merits of each comparison, for the common source. But conveniently it aligns ...

Re: Matthean posteriority: Peter's parallel confession in Mark, Luke, Matthew and John
I had a professor in grad school once say that Matthew was the primary Gospel used by the early church. Presumably this could be shown from the third and fourth century citations among the Fathers. This would explain why there are so many scribal redactions in Mark and Luke to align them with Matthe...

Re: The fallacy of proto-gospels and layered traditions
Have you heard of John Horman's book A Common Written Greek Source for Mark and Thomas (2011)? His most convincing observation to me was that so many of the overlaps between T and M are the exoteric sayings. Mark draws on his source, which Thomas does as well, in the public sayings, and then has Jes...
