Re: Loaves and Fishes
Oh come on stop defending weak inventions of a personal nature. The date in Eusebius is 21 CE. That doesn't need to be debated. If you "prefer" self-created nonsense then fine, onwards and upwards. I am trying to rehabilitate you. But as I've said you guys really amount to a creative think...

Re: Loaves and Fishes
As I said before you found something which is very significant. It will change the way we read the gospel if it is dressed up in a tuxedo. I have already put a brief summary in the conclusion to my new book which will be reviewed by one potential publisher. But you should and could get this publishe...

Re: Loaves and Fishes
Next rule - avoid referring to wacko birds like Eisenman (who mentions 21 CE in all his books). You may like them. But it prejudices the reader against you. Like saying you were gay but were "cured" with gay aversion treatment

Re: Loaves and Fishes
I could help you write the part about the Passion being 21 CE. No one will be convinced by a strained interpretation of Daniel.

Re: Loaves and Fishes
There is much that can be said (and has been said) about this but it all starts with this http://st-takla.org/books/en/ecf/201/2010036.html
The official documents of the Roman government said 21 CE. The date has scholarly support cf. Vardaman. Also Schwartz's reconstruction of Josephus

Re: Loaves and Fishes
FWIW here is the reference from the Samaritan Arabic commentary on the Torah, on Leviticus 25:9. Slightly condensed and slightly re-arranged translation from my life long friend it seems Ruaridh Boid formerly of Monash University: The High Priest and the King acting together are to send heralds out ...

Re: Loaves and Fishes
And there's more. I've been telling people at these forums for some time that the word 'gospel' derives from Hebrew. I won't get into what it means (or go into it too deeply) but it has everything to do with the Jubilee. The Jewish religious year starts on the first of the first. But when it is a Ju...

Re: Loaves and Fishes
What I mean by "fuck this up by their usual bullshit" is - you don't have to do anything to the date. 21 CE was the official date of the crucifixion according to the Roman historical records. You don't need to do anything to the date. It was the date. The cross carried by Jesus is a "...

Re: What was the fatal error of James the Just?
The right answer is baba. The text was written in Aramaic and shows signs of being badly translated into Greek elsewhere. What is the point of having blind people judge an art contest? The transposition of 'door' to 'father' is demonstrable in contemporary literature. For some reason (which I can't ...
