Re: Have any scholars who claim that the Gospels' narratives originated as oral traditions studied oral traditions?

ὑπερετής, ὁ, ἡ, past the age, i.e. of liability to poll-tax, POxy. 1030.8 (iii A. D.), etc. All this is Roman military Greek gents Martijn, you must be enjoying a VERY good holiday, as your normally sharp focus has become a little blurred... υπερ-ετης indeed means 'past the age', but υπ-ηρετης is a...

Re: Bruno Bauer's works now in English

This problem (for me) is less philosophical -- perhaps more technical. I am at a bit of a loss on how to translate the words in yellow highlighting.... Sagt nun freilich der Apologet **): „für Einen Tag wäre wohl, was C. 8 und 9 erzählt wird " — wir müssen des fortgehenden Zusammenhanges wegen...

Re: Chrestians/Christians?

Other than a trivial spelling issue, do these "two" have distinct beliefs practices myths rituals scriptures histories...? Oh go on then Stiphin, please explain why it is trivial. May I remind you of the picture that unfolds when going through all extant MSS that have been transcribed so ...

Re: John's Gospel - The human prophet Jesus and two powers in heaven

Some beautiful and deep stuff in there david, and you have picked what I believe to be the right verses, the right core. Pneuma is the number one nomen sacrum of the NHL - the only one really, far above IS and XRS even Thomas meant that we ourselves were the father, but I'm inclined to go along with...

Re: Christians think Jesus existed

Yes, the gospel of John makes mention of a rebirth/born-again idea. It also makes mention of a crucifixion and resurrection story. A story that reflects that ancient dying and rising god idea.

Re: Christians think Jesus existed

Paul is cheating Judaism by fabricating his own pseudo-Messiah and pseudo-Judaism and the FF continue that charade. Of course no IS ever claimed to be the Messiah before M...

Re: Bruno Bauer's works now in English

What I encounter on the sites you point to is basically the same as what I found when restoring Van Manen: not everything gets OCR-ed correctly. 2 Anecdotes: 1. While going through the Aramaic Sites, i once went to Lamsa to see what I could get concerning "My God, my God, for this was I spared...
