Archaeology of the New Testament

[Ichabod Stain]

Those voices in your head are not the benefit you believe them to be.

don't worry about it, captain ignorance.

 

[Dutch Uncle]

don't worry about it, captain ignorance.

Why would I be worried, Fredo? It's those around you who should be worried and take action to fix those worries.

don't worry about that either, busy bee Karen.

 

[Into the Night]

he was alive during the last supper.

Then why did you say He wasn't??

passover was back in the freaking Egypt days of captivity.

Tell Melki.

 

[Ichabod Stain]

Then why did you say He wasn't??

he was not alive during the events the Jewish Passover commemorates. they have nothing to do with Jesus.

he was at the Last supper, which was just one particular Passover, the passover portion not being about him; that's just what day it was.

 

[Into the Night]

Yes, it is.

History is not a 'rigor'.

The word "history" is not about events,

Never said it was. Get off this fixation.

it is about the discipline of documentation. It is an exact parallel to Intelligence gathering.

History is not 'intelligence gathering' or 'discipline of documentation'. Buzzword fallacies.

Everything prior to the first documentation is pre-historic. It's all about documentation and not a synonym for the past tense.

Buzzword fallacies (first documentation, documentation). History is in past tense.

Beyond your misunderstanding of the word "history", you get everything else right. You understand that your beliefs are a matter of faith, that you don't need any particular documents to have faith, that it doesn't matter how many people question whether certain events really happened, ... all that matters is that you believe what you believe.

You can't blame your problem on me. Inversion fallacy.

When someone says "Jesus was not an historical figure", all that is saying is that we simply don't have the necessary documentation to qualify Jesus as an historical figure. I see that you are locked in on interpreting this as "the account of Jesus simply did not happen" but that is a mistaken interpretation.

Jesus is a historical figure, whether you believe the Bible to be fiction or not.

History is a discipline.

Redefinition fallacy.

Organizations have historians,

Redefinition fallacy. History is not an organization.

and they are required to follow the rigorous documentation standards of the discipline.

Buzzword fallacies (rigorous documentation standards, discipline).

History is not a 'standard'. History is not a 'rigor'. History is not a 'discipline'.

History is a story about past events. Such can be found in fiction and non-fiction. It can be found in plays and operas. History is not a proof, rigor, discipline, standard, or organization.

YOU said Jesus was not alive during the Last Supper.

he was at the Last supper, which was just one particular Passover, the passover portion not being about him; that's just what day it was.

Now you say He was.

I am going to consider your earlier post a typo, and for the moment, this paradox is resolved. This of course means you can never claim that Jesus was not alive during the Last Supper again.

he was not alive during the events that passover commemorates. passover is not the last supper. the last supper occured on one particular Passover day.

that's the only thing I have said and it is correct.

 

[Into the Night]

This claim isn’t a factual statement—it’s a religious opinion presented as fact.

No, it is a fact. He is using the KJV of the Bible.

 

[Into the Night]

Explain my religious opinion that was presented as fact. I will then explain your objective error. You really should think these things through, which you can't do if you are letting some AI assistant do your hallucinating for you.

You stated a fact. He was using the KJV of the Bible That is the fact.

 

[Into the Night]

nazareth was not a place.

Nazareth is a place. It is a town.

the nazarenes were a religious sect.

The Nazarene's are residents of Nazareth. It is not a religious sect.

 

[Into the Night]

Archaeology corroborates that Nazareth was a first century agricultural settlement in Galilee.

It still exists.

 

[Into the Night]

in truth, Christianity was a complete break from Judaism.

jesus was a gnostic and gnostics know the god of the OT is genocidal insane demon.

Still trying to deny the Bible, eh?

I already said I will ignore your typo.

[Ichabod Stain]

Nazareth is a town. It is not a religious sect.

it's a religious sect.

 

[Into the Night]

it's a religious sect.

Nazareth is a town. It is not a religious sect.

 

[Cypress]

It still exists.

There are lots of towns in Israel today which didn't exist in the first century AD.

The question archaeology answers is whether or not there is evidence of a first century agricultural settlement in Galilee matching the New Testament description of Jesus' hometown.

 

[Melchizedek=Tecumseh]

So, when YHWH says "I will bring judgement", what does that mean as it relates to the killing of children?

Jehovah don't play!
