Did The Apostle Paul Really Kill James The Brother of Jesus? Dr. Robert M. Price

Dr. Robert M. Price is a big fan of Professor Robert Eisenman. Dr. Price says, "IN his recent publications The Dead Sea Scrolls Uncovered (with Michael Wise) and The Dead Sea Scrolls and the First Christians Robert Eisenman has been threatening/promising to redraw the map of Christian origins and now, by God, he has done it. The breadth and detail of Eisenman's investigation are breathtaking, as are its implications. In James the Brother of Jesus he tells the long-lost tale of formative "prehistoric" Christianity as it emerged from the crucible of revolutionary Palestine and from the internecine hostilities between Pauline and Ebionite Christianities. I call it "prehistoric" because Eisenman reconstructs the events lying before and beneath our canonical histories of early Christianity. His enterprise is in this sense akin to that of Burton Mack, that other great delver into the subterrene depths of religious pre-history. Like Mack, Eisenman discovers a "Christianity" (or perhaps a proto-Christianity, or even a pre-Christianity) for which Jesus had not yet attained centrality. Only whereas Mack sees the initial germ of the new religion as a variant of Cynicism, Eisenman rejuvenates, even vindicates, Renan's old claim that Christianity began as "an Essenism."Dr. Price did the Apostle Paul really Kill the brother of the Jesus James? Was the tension between these two different sect leaders that bad? Paul writes fire breathing words in some of his letters. Was the curious death of Stephen really a fictional rewrite of Paul killing James the brother of Jesus?MythVision Website: 🔥 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/MythVision Patreon 👉 https://www.patreon.com/mythvisionMythVision Paypal. 👉 https://www.paypal.me/dereklambert7 Cashapp: 👉 $rewiredaddictionVenmo: 👉 @Derek-Lambert-9Recommeded books 👉 https://amzn.to/35FqNYf Email MythVision 👉 mythvisionpodcast@gmail.com Facebook page: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/MythVision/Facebook group: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheWa...Twitter: 👉 @DerekPodcast Instagram: 👉 @dereklambert_7==============================================================================One on one with Dr. Robert M.

Christians burned down the Library of Alexandria is a myth! Tim O'Neill

The Great Library of Alexandria in Alexandria, Egypt, was one of the largest and most significant libraries of the ancient world. The Library was part of a larger research institution called the Mouseion, which was dedicated to the Muses, the nine goddesses of the arts.[10] The idea of a universal library in Alexandria may have been proposed by Demetrius of Phalerum, an exiled Athenian statesman living in Alexandria, to Ptolemy I Soter, who may have established plans for the Library, but the Library itself was probably not built until the reign of his son Ptolemy II Philadelphus. The Library quickly acquired many papyrus scrolls, due largely to the Ptolemaic kings' aggressive and well-funded policies for procuring texts. It is unknown precisely how many such scrolls were housed at any given time, but estimates range from 40,000 to 400,000 at its height.========================================Tim O'Neill's Website: https://historyforatheists.com/Subscribe to his Youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCiNG...========================================MythVision Website: 🔥 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/MythVision Patreon 👉 https://www.patreon.com/mythvisionMythVision Paypal. 👉 https://www.paypal.me/dereklambert7 Cashapp: 👉 $rewiredaddictionVenmo: 👉 @Derek-Lambert-9Recommeded books 👉 https://amzn.to/35FqNYf Email MythVision 👉 mythvisionpodcast@gmail.com Facebook page: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/MythVision/Facebook group: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheWa...Twitter: 👉 @DerekPodcast Instagram: 👉 @dereklambert_7

Better Call Paul “Saul”: Literary Models and a Lukan Innovation - Dr. Michael Kochenash

Better Call Paul “Saul”: Literary Modelsand a Lukan Innovation - michael kochenashThis show argues that Luke’s characterization of Saul as a god-fighter can be read as modeled on the biblical King Saul and on Pentheus from Euripides’s Bacchae, and that the characterization of Paul in Acts 13:4–17:15 can be read as modeled on the Bacchae’s Dionysus. My approach, appealing to the Bacchae as a literary model, avoids a weakness of similar interpretations of the name Saul, which date to the early church, that it is a reference to King Saul. Saul remains “Saul” after the Damascus Road experience in order to demonstrate the appropriate response of one found to be a god-fighter, emulating Pentheus’s model.Dr. Michael Kochenosh links:1.

Atheism In The Ancient World - Battling The Gods with Dr. Tim Whitmarsh

Thank you to my good friend Stephen Nelson for providing the slides during this presentation!How new is atheism? Although adherents and opponents alike today present it as an invention of the European Enlightenment, when the forces of science and secularism broadly challenged those of faith, disbelief in the gods, in fact, originated in a far more remote past. In Battling the Gods, Tim Whitmarsh journeys into the ancient Mediterranean, a world almost unimaginably different from our own, to recover the stories and voices of those who first refused the divinities.Homer’s epic poems of human striving, journeying, and passion were ancient Greece’s only “sacred texts,” but no ancient Greek thought twice about questioning or mocking his stories of the gods. Priests were functionaries rather than sources of moral or cosmological wisdom. The absence of centralized religious authority made for an extraordinary variety of perspectives on sacred matters, from the devotional to the atheos, or “godless.” Whitmarsh explores this kaleidoscopic range of ideas about the gods, focusing on the colorful individuals who challenged their existence. Among these were some of the greatest ancient poets and philosophers and writers, as well as the less well known: Diagoras of Melos, perhaps the first self-professed atheist; Democritus, the first materialist; Socrates, executed for rejecting the gods of the Athenian state; Epicurus and his followers, who thought gods could not intervene in human affairs; the brilliantly mischievous satirist Lucian of Samosata.Before the revolutions of late antiquity, which saw the scriptural religions of Christianity and Islam enforced by imperial might, there were few constraints on belief. Everything changed, however, in the millennium between the appearance of the Homeric poems and Christianity’s establishment as Rome’s state religion in the fourth century AD. As successive Greco-Roman empires grew in size and complexity, and power was increasingly concentrated in central capitals, states sought to impose collective religious adherence, first to cults devoted to individual rulers, and ultimately to monotheism. In this new world, there was no room for outright disbelief: the label “atheist” was used now to demonize anyone who merely disagreed with the orthodoxy—and so it would remain for centuries.As the twenty-first century shapes up into a time of mass information, but also, paradoxically, of collective amnesia concerning the tangled histories of religions, Whitmarsh provides a bracing antidote to our assumptions about the roots of freethinking. By shining a light on atheism’s first thousand years, Battling the Gods offers a timely reminder that nonbelief has a wealth of tradition of its own, and, indeed, its own heroes. ======================================Dr. Tim Whitmarsh: https://www.classics.cam.ac.uk/direct...GET RECOMMENDED (Dr. Tim whitmarsh) BOOKS HERE: 👉 https://amzn.to/35FqNYf MythVision Website: 🔥 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/MythVision Patreon 👉 https://www.patreon.com/mythvisionMythVision Paypal. 👉 https://www.paypal.me/dereklambert7 Cashapp: 👉 $rewiredaddictionVenmo: 👉 @Derek-Lambert-9Recommeded books 👉 https://amzn.to/35FqNYf Email MythVision 👉 mythvisionpodcast@gmail.com Facebook page: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/MythVision/Facebook group: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheWa...Twitter: 👉 @DerekPodcast Instagram: 👉 @dereklambert_7MythVision Discord: https://discord.gg/dRQXdZBq6E========================================Provided links from the presentation https://youtu.be/9FPbwXqUXoo?t=9168 (2:32:48 – 2:33:25)https://youtu.be/UxwbYLo1pSA (warning – this video 2 minutes long)https://youtu.be/bBMlktCfdAI?t=3698 (1:01:38 – 1:02:30)Dr. Richard Carrier's article on Atheism-https://www.richardcarrier.info/archi...#Atheism #TimWhitmarsh #MythVision

Which Gospel came first Matthew or Mark? Dr. Mark Goodacre vs. Jonathan Sheffield

Dr. Mark Goodacre is the Francis Hill Fox Professor of Religious Studies at Duke University. He proposes that the gospel of Mark was the first written gospel and that Matthew uses Mark to create his gospel. Jonathan Sheffield believes he has better evidence that Matthew was the first gospel by looking at various sources.

When Prophecy Fails in the Bible: Daniel & Jeremiah with Jim Majors

Bible prophecy or biblical prophecy comprises the passages of the Bible that are claimed to reflect communications from God to humans through prophets. Jews and Christians usually consider the biblical prophets to have received revelations from God.Prophetic passages—inspirations, interpretations, admonitions or predictions—appear widely distributed throughout Biblical narratives. Some future-looking prophecies in the Bible are conditional, with the conditions either implicitly assumed or explicitly stated.In general, believers in biblical prophecy engage in exegesis and hermeneutics of scriptures which they believe contain descriptions of global politics, natural disasters, the future of the nation of Israel, the coming of a Messiah and of a Messianic Kingdom—as well as the ultimate destiny of humankind.Prophets in the Hebrew Bible often warn the Israelites to repent of their sins and idolatries, with the threat of punishment or reward. They attribute both blessings and catastrophes to the deity. According to believers in Bible prophecy, later biblical passages - especially those contained in the New Testament - contain accounts of the fulfillment of many of these prophecies.Judaism and Christianity have taken a number of biblical passages as prophecies or foreshadowings of a coming Messiah. Christians believe that Christ Jesus fulfills these messianic prophecies, while followers of Rabbinic Judaism still await the arrival of the Jewish Messiah and other signs of Jewish eschatology. Most Christians believe that the Second Coming of Christ will fulfill many messianic prophecies, though some Christians (Full Preterists) believe that all Messianic prophecies have already been fulfilled. Rabbinic Judaism does not separate the original coming of the Messiah and the advent of a Messianic Age. (For details of differences, see Christianity and Judaism.)A much-discussed issue within Christianity concerns the "end times", or "last days", particularly as depicted in the Book of Revelation.===========================================MythVision Website: 🔥 https://mythvisionpodcast.com/MythVision Patreon https://www.patreon.com/mythvisionMythVision Paypal. https://www.paypal.me/dereklambert7 Cashapp: $rewiredaddictionVenmo: @Derek-Lambert-9Recommended books https://amzn.to/35FqNYf Email MythVision mythvisionpodcast@gmail.com Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/MythVision/Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheWa...Twitter: @DerekPodcast Instagram: @dereklambert_7MythVision Discord: https://discord.gg/dRQXdZBq6E#Prophecy #MythVision #Bible
