Jesus And The Hidden Contradictions Of The Gospels

to which christmas story do you refer? You missed
lots

Luke’s gospel tells us that Mary and Joseph laid Jesus in a manger “because there was no room for them in the inn” (Luke 2:7, KJV).

Why don't you post the verses about the innkeeper?

Did you have a happy childhood?

yes---except when I was in kindergarten and got rocks thrown at me by other little five year old kids---
just about EVERY DAY as I walked home from
school. They wore blue plaid dresses and attended the local
catholic school called "St Anne's"-----they insisted
that I killed some person named "Jesus". I was very
shy and did not even tell my mom----I thought I MUST be doing "something" wrong. Later on---
by age 7, I went to a protestant sunday school
several times and colored cartoons of the SAME
jesus----holding a lamb-----and learned that kids
who imagined I killed that person also believed that
a bunny brought them jelly-beans on easter. I
attended the public school and got treated to the
"CHRISTMAS PLAY" every year-----for 13 years
 
Perhaps their pro-Israel platform was a reason Jesus selected one. But then also, for the first half of the first century, the Zealots were still rather innocuous and fringe.

That's how it seems to me.. The various factions got more divisive as time went on. Interesting that Herod's granddaughter was the mistress of Titus.

Wow.. That's pretty awful. An Arab kid named Tarik hit my younger brother in the head throwing rocks.. He was 4 years old and still has a scar on his forehead. We don't hate all Arabs.

why interesting. John the Baptist hated the
pro-roman and to some extent ROME EDUCATED
Herod family-----they were so tight with the Romans
that Mr Herod was appointed king and the ladies
of the family fooled around with the roman notables- AND -----like Jesus, he wanted the Romans OUT---
and anything they touched-----so he constantly
engaged in and promulgated RITUAL PURIFICATION
from their filth-------which is why the Herod people
killed him. ------along with thousands of others like
him

one is an accident, two is a coincidence,
DOZENS is a series and is reportable (a medical
Journal rule of thumb)
 
No.. How does the word zealot come out?
I don't know----that's why I asked. I do not
know the word "zealot" which some people
seem to imagine was a "sect" of jews or a
"political party" in Judea 2000 years ago.
 
The Christmas story says NOTHING about the innkeeper.
"NOBODY" directed Mary, Jesus, and Joseph to
the "manger"------the very first christmas song
I learned "AWAY IN THE MANGER" ----is just a
silly lie?

Who are the Zealots? - Bible Study
Zealots were one of several New Testament period Jewish political movements. The Historian Josephus states, regarding this fourth of four major sects that existed in the first century A.D. (the


ZEALOTS - JewishEncyclopedia.com
Most of the Zealots fell under the sword or other instruments of death and torture at the hands of the Romans, and such as fled to Alexandria or Cyrenaica roused by their unyielding hostility to

What does that even mean? "nobody directed"???
 
The contradictions arent hidden. One gospel says that Jesus was born during the 15th year of the Roman Emperor Tiberius. We have this exact date. The issue is Herod the Great (King Herod) had been dead for over 10 years. Many scholars thing he was added as a villain in order to demonize him.
And there was no Roman census that year. There was one 5 years later.

The NT wasn't actually written by anyone who knew Jesus the earliest versions were written over 80 years after the accepted time of the crucifixion.
