re: #322 Nyet
The new “Jesus series” probably full of hype for the omnivorous audiences:
Yeah, too bad that both of Josephus’ references to Jesus cannot even be shown to be authentic. Good start.
Yesh. I’m probably as devout a christian in many ways as you’ll find here but I really prefer working with at least semi provable historical sources (such as a Jewish guy who considered the Pharisees as a good place to Begin as shown in Matthew…) . The Josephus crap is simply that - a badly interpolated bit by an editor far later than either of those two historical men.
