Grailhunter, what you or anyone else believes is unimportant to me. When the scholars, after devoting a lot of time studying this, cannot agree, I am content to accept that which I have believed over the past 60 years, that Matthew and Hebrews were originally written in Hebrew, as was the...

Just another stone of speculation to be added to the already exisiting mountain of speculation.

Marks>> "murder according to who's law? Rhetorical, we'll not agree on this." Why would we not agree? It would be according to the law that governs us where we live. Marks>> "In my mind, abortion is the murder of the unborn children." And while that's just fine for Marks, my morals, ethics...

Philip, I think the confusion here is that you and I speak an entirely different version of the English language. At the outset, you state that tens of millions of children are being murdered. But then you go onto say that they are not children, but unborn children, i.e that they have never...

Yeah, abortion statistics are pretty much general knowledge, but I am intrigued with your revelation that there are also "tens of millions of children are being murdered", and I have never heard anything about that.

I didn't know that "tens of millions of children" were being murdered. I am only aware of one case where a 'doctor' murdered a child after a failed abortion, and the last I heard, he had already served 13 years in prison for murder. I don't know where you got your information that tens of...

The Christian Book industry is dying at a very rapid rate. All of the Christian Book stores in my area have now closed their doors, and the only remaining retailer I know of is: Christian Books, Bibles, Gifts & more. - Christianbook.com They no longer carry Early Church Fathers et al, and it...

You are obviously disparaging something of which you declare you have absolutely zero knowledge. I am the exact opposite of you. I have an insatiable desire to learn! To that end, many years ago, I acquired the complete 38 volume set of the Early Church Fathers, Nicene Fathers and Post Nicene...

Why do I sign my name to some things I write, and sometimes not? It is my practice to sign my name to something that is going to be mailed away, but I don't sign my name to something that is going to handed to them personally by me. I believe Paul's mission was 'to the Jews first', so I suspect...

I don't know where I got the idea that Matthew and Hebrews were originally written in Hebrew. It is just something I have subscribed to for the last 60 years. With regard to Hebrews, which is amongst the five books of the Bible designated as "The Jewish-Christian Epistles: Hebrews, James First...

Caldwell said >>"That said, Hebrews was not translated into Greek. It was written in Greek - as evidenced by the word choices). Also, the Hebrew Scriptures are not quoted - the references are from the Septuagint. The title is simply to the Hebrew Scholars (Paul is not in the title of the...

Caldwell, I am under no illusion that the Church Fathers were Divinely inspired. And you are the first person I have encountered, who is aware that the attack against the "The Epistle of Paul to the Hebrews", was the Church at Rome!! They not only denied the authorship, but the 'Canonicity' of...

I would be interested in why you reject confirmation recorded by the Early Church Fathers like Eusebius and Athanasius during the first 300 years of church history. I wonder why it took so many hundreds of years for someone to come up with the idea that the author of Paul's Eplistle

I have never heard of a third being written to the Corinthians.

Well yeah, John wrote some epistles. What is there to consider?

>>"So, why didn't Paul identify himself. Because as soon as he identified himself, he would have lost most of the Jewish readers." I don't accept your hypothesis. First, Paul never had a reputation for backing down. Second, it is not as if you could buy his book on Amazon. The only place these...

I have provided the answer for you in #24. For me, it is important to know who the author of a particular book, and in this case, is not just an anonymous letter, but one that is held within the global context of everything else Paul wrote.

Yeah, it sounds reasonable, if just on the basis of common sense. But there is no need to speculate on the authorship of the Hebrews. It was given the stamp of approval over and over by the early church. But as always, there have been 'scholars' and such, whose only objective has been the...
