I'm wondering if we can be any more specific than 'first century'. First study in my first message : Roger T. Beckwith : there is strong evidence to show that the Essenes, the Pharisees, and the Zealots all thought that they could date, at least approximately, the time when the Son of David would c...

I'm not interested in the calculations of Daniel 9. But what I do know is that the Jews of the second temple believed that time would be fulfilled in the first century.

It is the only Old Testament passage which refers to the Messiah as “Messiah.” Elsewhere He is called “Shiloh” (Genesis 49:1...

Just imagine if the shoe were on the other foot. Suppose Smith transcribed it as an iota, commented on that, and the argument for the next 60 years hinged on that.

There aren't many experts on this planet who study post-Byzantine manuscripts and early modern cursive Greek writing. I've already seen the initial opinion of a few of them. They said it was an iota.
