Jesus quotes Midrash INCESSANTLY ----as reported by his biographers
in the New Testament
looks like all you jewish people got this mysterious rash thingie going on. it must be contagious. maybe a good shower will help ya all take care of it...or maybe some topical cream.
lord knows, i wouldn't want to see you quarantined or anything like that. you are such a delightful people.
THE Midrash had not been written when Jesus lived in Palestine. IF Jesus words are in the
Midrash, the Midrash is quoting Jesus.
WRONG!!! again the Midrash is a COMPILATION ----with attribution----
Jesus is an incessant quoter of RABBI HILLEL-----who died either shortly
before or after Jesus was born and is one of the most FREQUENTLY quoted
of the DERESHERS ---to this day-----by PHARISEES
Hillel lived both in Babylon and in Jerusalem---he died in Jerusalem----
well known guy in the time of jesus and still well known by the literate.
