johnydon22: Oga, the reference i gave to you is not the one with a wide spread doubt by scholars. the source you gave said: "Modern scholarship has [size=15]largely[/size] acknowledged the authenticity of the reference in Book 20, Chapter 9, 1 of the Antiquities to "the brother of Jesus, who was called Christ, whose name was James" [12] and considers it as having the highest level of authenticity" |

johnydon22: 1. I didnt mention testimonium flavius, I rather mentioned Antiquities. So sir, what is wrong with that writeup? 2. I had another source I presented as a proof. Sir, it is good to follow the truth as history shows. 3. What you presented above is no proof. Read this: "It has been stated that both the terms Christians and Chrestians had at times been used by the general population in Rome to refer to early Christians. [22] The term Christians appears only three times in the New Testament , the first usage ( Acts 11:26 ) giving the origin of the term. [20] In all three cases the uncorrected Codex Sinaiticus in Greek reads Chrestianoi .[20][22] In Phrygia a number of funerary stone inscriptions use the term Chrestians, with one stone inscription using both terms together, reading: " Chrestians for Christians ". [22] Adolf von Harnack argued that Chrestians was the original wording, and that Tacitus deliberately used Christus immediately after it to show his own superior knowledge compared to the population at large. [20] Robert Renehan has stated that it was natural for a Roman to mix the two words that sounded the same, that Chrestianos was the original word in the Annals and not an error by a scribe. [23][24] Van Voorst has stated that it was unlikely for Tacitus himself to refer to Christians as Chrestianos i.e. "useful ones" given that he also referred to them as "hated for their shameful acts". [19] Paul Eddy sees no major impact on the authenticity of the passage or its meaning regardless of the use of either term by Tacitus." 1 Like |
