And so it is not Brown vs. the later Gospels but Mark vs. them.<BR/><BR/>For more on this subject, see my new book <I><A HREF="http://exploringourmatrix.blogspot.com/2008/09/burial-of-jesus-now-available-at-amazon.html" REL="nofollow">The Burial of Jesus: History and Faith</A></I>!James F.

What convences me he's right, and most other scholars too, is the fact of the chart he draws. No one redacts a text in that way, choosing a word here and a word there form this and that. No one would every do it that way. Gpet's passaion narrative is not drawn form Matt for any degree but from the pslams.<BR/><BR/>The Gpet readcation represents another older tradition presicsely because it isn't dependent upon Matt but upon the psalms.Joseph Hinman (Metacrock)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06957529748541493998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11516215.post-1121759217261529512005-07-19T00:46:00.000-07:002005-07-19T00:46:00.000-07:00I don't think Brown's argument itself standards or...I don't think Brown's argument itself standards or falls on the one point abuot J of A being not a disciple. He was probalby posative toward the Jesus movement but not a real member. I think that's basically in line wiht Brown. But I don't think if I did disagree on that one popint that would mean I've flucked Borwn and shchool and couldn't use him as support on anything else.<BR/><BR/>I see the real import of Brown's argument that GPete is not dependent upon Matt.. Thus, GPEte offers a secnod independent tradition for the tomb and the gaurds on the the tomb.Joseph Hinman (Metacrock)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06957529748541493998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11516215.post-1121708731132299832005-07-18T10:45:00.000-07:002005-07-18T10:45:00.000-07:00throughout the Gospels the Apostoles are kind of o...throughout the Gospels the Apostoles are kind of out of the loop, don't get the drift.

The actually apoostles themselves didn't write those books. Nor did they have to for them to be divinely inspired. But the thing is, even if they were desciples, that doenst' mean they privy to every single event and all the goings on. They could only be in one place at a time.<BR/><BR/>Besides, Brown is just conjecturing, why do you supposse Brown would be write and Matta nd John wrong?Joseph Hinman (Metacrock)https://www.blogger.com/profile/06957529748541493998noreply@blogger.com
