Re: The Parable of the Talents is anti-ebionite
What is the corollary? That the master in the parable, in addition to not be possibly YHWH but another god, doesn't allegorize, by the punition addressed by him against the ebionites, the facts of 70 CE.
The ebionite is punished because he is ebionite, not because he is a Jew.
Hardly, therefore, the gospels can be always interpreted in the light of a Jewish-Roman war.

41. IS said: he who has in his hand, they will give to him and he who has not, the other young-thing which he has they will carry him from the hand of him.
It likely is a Coptic passive construction: they give him = him is given
It says young-thing, yes - that's what the normalised translation dictates. And it is young because it is of your own making, it is the fruit that you have found during introspection.
The first hand is ϭⲓϫ in Thomas, the spiritual hand that contains the result of your own input, that what you brought forth yourself.
The second hand is ⲧⲟⲟⲧ, it's the physical hand that contains output by others: that which is not yours
Highly unlikely that its Greek copy said young-thing, of course.
But it's in Thomas and *Ev, like dozens of others
Re: The Parable of the Talents is anti-ebionite
This is just repurposing content from *Ev / Thomas: the entire goal of the gospels. Take that content, place it into your own context, and you own it: THAT is what happened, and you can interpret all what you want but this is just a very lame reuse by Luke, and typically Matthean. A lot of the gospels is just dumb crapGiuseppe wrote: ↑Sat Apr 16, 2022 11:23 am What is the corollary?
