One of the variables in claims about when the five books of Torah were written or completed is whether or when what counts as being completed.
By, e.g., Gmirkin.
By, elsewhere, Lemche.
And others.

Re: Possible textual evidence that Mark came after Matthew?
If, rgprice, "trying to sort all of this out has been impossible,"
why did you say "I have no doubt..."?
Does that mean that the sorting out was previously impossible, but, in your view,
it is now sorted out, and, if so,
partially or completely?

Re: Syndication
JarekS, you have repeated your "marketing and content sales" pitch.

Re: John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
Guiseppe, of course you are free to say, as you did above, in part: "I enjoy to inquiry on different hypotheses [...]" What I do question is your approval of multiple opinions which all embrace mythicism, but, at the same time, as means to that end, you appear to accept those scenarios tha...

Re: naked or nakeds in the "Letter to Theodore"
One of the other major theories about the pseudo-Clement Letter, besides the Morton Smith origin one, is that a Mar Saba monk sometime more or less in the eighteenth century, copied an earlier, incomplete, manuscript. Even on that theory, this would be merely a copy (of another copy?), in which (as ...

Re: Syndication
JarekS, you repeat your view that some person or central agency in Rome supplied early Christianity "product," top down, but I don't see that you have shown that to be actually the case. Apparently there were differences between or among early Christians. Walter Bauer's book Orthodoxy and ...

Re: naked or nakeds in the "Letter to Theodore"
So much posting about iota or sigma seems to ignore the probability that what was penned was penned by Smith or an accomplice and was taken as sigma, as textual context suggests, in Smith's transliteration and translation "with minor corrections," 1958. Added: remember, those three pages w...

Re: John of Gischala "was scandalized" at the news about Josephus and Jesus ben Sapphat
Guiseppe's effort to remove Jesus from the time of Pilate has been based on his interpretation of Greek and/or on a different and contradictory interpretation of Hebrew, and on an effort to date Jesus earlier, to the era of Jannaeus (a well-known error) and, on an effort, contradictorily, to date Je...

For what it is worth,
I don't, so far, find either the proposed switch of Hyrcanus II for John the Baptist
nor the proposed switch of those two people named Jesus
plausible.
