LIES, EVERYTHING we know of thallus comes from Christian apologists.
We don't even know when thallus lived or if he even wrote anything.
That's why NO historian consider that statement as factual.

1. Obviously you didn't read any of those trash 'evidence' you posted. If you did you would have seen this…

This article examines a report in the 27th chapter of the Gospel of Matthew in the New Testament that an earthquake was felt in Jerusalem on the day of the crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. We have tabulated a varved chronology from a core from Ein Gedi on the western shore of the Dead Sea between deformed sediments due to a widespread earthquake in 31 BC and deformed sediments due to an early first-century earthquake. The early first-century seismic event has been tentatively assigned a date of 31 AD with an accuracy of ±5 years. Plausible candidates include the earthquake reported in the Gospel of Matthew, an earthquake that occurred sometime before or after the crucifixion and was in effect ‘borrowed’ by the author of the Gospel of Matthew, and a local earthquake between 26 and 36 AD that was sufficiently energetic to deform the sediments at Ein Gedi but not energetic enough to produce a still extant and extra-biblical historical record. If the last possibility is true, this would mean that the report of an earthquake in the Gospel of Matthew is a type of allegory
A. The excerpt said it happened in 31 AD and also 31BC. So which one we go take? Different dates depict confusion and uncertainty.
B. Only Matthew reported an earthquake. Mark, Luke and John didn't. So an earthquake that big was ignored by 3 people and reported by one? Dey play! Lol 😆
C. Your 'evidence' wasn't sure if the earthquake happened before or after the crucifixion. Lol 😆
D. Finally the bolded part shows your 'evidence' is just bullshit. Its suggesting the earthquake was an allegory(much like what many modern day christians attribute the Bible)
2. In your usual dishonest way, you ignored the the main topic of discussion. We were discussing the 'mass resurrection' that happened on the death of Jesus and not any earthquake
Nice try grin
The scientific evidence placed the earthquake at 31 +/- 5 AD.
You asking if the earthquake was b4 or after cruxifixion just expose your ignorance of archeological dating.
The magnitude and the after effect of the
earthquake is a matter subjective opinion. They
were not there to determine the damage of the
local earthquake.
But what we know is there was definitely an earthquake around the period of Christ cruxifixion.
Your highlighted only suggested the local earthquake wasn't serious enough to leave extant evidence or extra biblical record. Then they concluded Mathew inserted the story into the gospel.
However, Thallus who lived in the 30s AD and witnessed the event confirmed the earthquake happened on the eve of the Passover.

I already gave plausible explanation to the 3rd
event of that night - resurrection of saints.
Christianity Etc › Re: Does God Exist? by SIRTee15: 1:41am On Jan 03, 2024
According to Mathew, 3 extraordinary events occured the night Jesus was crucified.
Darkness at noon without eclipse, earthquake and dead bodies coming to life.

We already have extra biblical evidence- both scientific and historical for 2.
So then should we believe the 3rd account or simply say it was garnished.

Let's remember earthquake disturbs earth's movement. The quake could have exposed
buried bodies in graves and tombs. Some people could have seen their dead brought back to life by way of miracle which u don't believe in anyway.
Or the relatives thought they were alive and reported it as such. Mathew never said the bodies spoke or communicated to anybody. Instead the report said the bodies of saints were seen to be alive.
It's possible the bodies of these saints never decomposed and looked very much like a living
person which the relatives reported.

Why did it not make headline news in ancient Rome?
Same way the resurrection of Lazarus, the widow's son in Capernaum and jarius daughter didn't make headline news in ancient Rome.

The darkness at noon and earthquake didn't make headlines either and if thallus had not reported it, scholars would have claimed it was all a myth/forgery.

Read this article. It highlight scientific evidence of the earthquake described by Mathew on the night Jesus was crucified.


A geological study based on sediments near the Dead Sea indicate that an earthquake occurred around 31 AD ± 5 years, which plausibly coincides with the earthquake reported by Matthew 27 near the time of the crucifixion of Christ


https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/An-early-first-century-earthquake-in-the-Dead-Sea-Williams-Schwab/037fc20bee7296e7722f1037f2d2e738aab456c0

https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00206814.2011.639996

Thallus on the other hand described both the darkness at 3pm and also the earthquake.

On the whole world there pressed a most fearful darkness; and the rocks were rent by an earthquake, and many places in Judea and other districts were thrown down. This darkness Thallus, in the third book of his History, calls, as appears to me without reason, an eclipse of the sun. For the Hebrews celebrate the passover on the 14th day according to the moon, and the passion of our Saviour falls on the day before the passover;

Jesus is a myth. Quoting stories from the Bible doesn’t detract from that fact. What is that quote supposed to prove anyway? This is what follows:

23 Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. 24 Very truly I tell you, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. 25 Anyone who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26 Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.
The verse proved some of Jesus disciples could communicate in greek. So the anonymous authorship claim of the gospel is nonsense.

I’m not Roman, Greek, or Jew, so Paul’s delusion or shame is no concern of mine. I find the god of the Hebrews to be the most repulsive creature in all of literature and the concept of “salvation” to be an utter joke.



Probably the greeks that settled in Ptolemaic and Seleucid area or maybe Hellenized Jews.



Consult a map of the Seleucid and Ptolemaic empires so you can see why the woman was called a Greek like you asked. I guess you can also call her a Canaanite if that helps you.
Your opinion about the God of the bible is the least of my interest.

One of u initially here insisted Jesus was a myth. After slapping him with hard facts and enormous dose of core truth, he has finally admitted Jesus died but didn't resurrect.
Now I'm about to work on his brain to see the resurrection of Jesus as real.

Now there were some Greeks among those who went up to worship at the festival. They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they said, “we would like to see Jesus.” Philip went to tell Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus

The guy just keeps arguing in circles.

Isreal is not in Africa, then let him tell us how Christianity became an official religion of the Roman empire which extended to the shores of northern Africa. He's talking as if the disciples ventured into the deep parts of Nigeria to preach the gospels. grin grin grin

Jesus most likely spoke Aramaic, even though some jews also spoke Greek/latin. Jesus's audience were largely jewish, who understand the language he spoke, that is, Aramaic. He says, Europe has nothing to do with it, but the bible is completely, or rather, mostly translated from Greek---an European dialect. Which later went to Latin, before transcriptions to English, and to other languages. The Bishops who cemented the tenets of Christianity were cleary influenced by greeko-roman religious philosophy. It's the very reason Jesus is God. Remove the European jargon from the new testament and you'll have an ordinary man who served his God diligently. Poor old Sirtee15.
Ok let's test this claim of 'Jesus is God's is a greek-roman philosophy.

Do Jews in the 2nd temple period believe the word of God called logos is an existence on its own.
Have u heard of philo? What did he say about logos.
Do u know the book called Didache? It's a catechist used by jewish- Christians in the first century AD. What does it say about trinity?

Did any of the apostolic fathers in the first century AD confirmed Jesus is God.

Hellenized Jews were part of the ruling class or other well to do Judeans who had adopted Greek customs and civilization during that period.



I do not consider the Jesus story to be anything but mythology, however, since Judea was under Roman control during this time, the phrase would have been a mockery.



The same way any two people communicate. In a language they both understand, through gestures, or though a translator.



Whatever language Simon the Cyrene from North Africa and the Roman soldier both understood. But since he was a Roman soldier, I bet he didn’t even need to speak the same language as Simon when force and violence are very effective.




Probably because it was created by Hellenized Greeks.




That passage does not reflect your claims and Jesus the Greek speaker.
All your response makes no sense. It was better if u had kept quiet.

There would have ‘been no “lingua Franca” per se during those times. However, since it was the early period of imperial Rome when the power was in Rome and the Emperor was Tiberius, the “lingua Franca” would be Latin. While the “Greek” Seleucids and Ptolemaic had controlled the Judea area prior to the Romans, there is no reason to think the common people that had no direct business with rulers would be able to speak Greek.
Your example below is negated by the fact that despite the area called Nigeria being an English colony, speakers of the indigenous languages remained the majority and English was thought until a need for local clerical workers arose.




He speaks English due to being educated to speak English. The Jesus character would not have spoken Latin because he would not be educated to speak the language. Additionally, the people of Judea were fighting against Roman rule so adopting the language of the “enemy” would be out of the question. The people who would be able to speak Latin would be the highly educated wealthy/ruling class, a group that Jesus the carpenter was not part of.
So many assumptions in your post
But let me ask some questions
Why do Jews call gentiles Greek?
Why was the syrophoenician woman called Greek?
Who are Hellenised Jews, why are they called Hellenised , where do they live
Why did Pontius Pilate write 'king of Jews' in greek.
If a Jew wants to speak to a non Jew, in what language will they communicate?

Did u say English speakers were rare in colonial era amongst the native.
So if a Nigerian during colonial era travels to
Ghana, what language will he speak. Twi or ashante.
It's like you have forgotten pidgin English predates colonial era.
Every standard 6 holder in colonial days could communicate in English. My grandfather was writing in English as far back as 1920s yet didn't have any formal education.
Which bush of Nigeria do u come from that English speakers was a rarity in colonial era.

Simon the Cyrene from north Africa was asked to carry a cross by a Roman soldier in Judea province.
What would have been the language of communication.

If Latin was the lingua Franca in Roman province, why was the new testament written in Greek?

Your claim Jesus couldn't speak greek is largely unfounded when the bible points to the fact he could speak greek.

John 7.35

The Jews said to one another, “Where does this man intend to go that we cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? What did he mean when he said, ‘You will look for me, but you will not find me,’ and ‘Where I am, you cannot come’?”

Now why did the Jews say Jesus was going to teach the Greeks if they knew he couldn't speak greek.

I just discovered u another ignorant atheist. Pls check my previous post on this subject matter. I'm not ready to repeat myself.

Other statements are irrelevant. History class is needed here, and I'm no history teacher.
Then keep quiet on matters that are beyond your level of understanding.
U came here claiming Christianity is a white's man religion yet failed to back the claim with fact when critically examined.

How can Christianity be a white man's religion when no white man wrote the book, no blue eye or blond hair character exist in the book.
The white man was barely present when the doctrines of Christianity were established.

Father Augustine, one of the prominent church fathers present in Nicea council was a berber of ancient Numidia tribe from present day Algeria.
John Mark who wrote the gospel of Mark was born in Libya.

There are over 20 black people mentioned in the bible including the wife of Moses. Over 50 Africans mentioned in the bible including hagar the mistress of Abraham and bathsheba the wife of David.
Simon the Cyrene who helped Jesus Christ with his cross to Golgotha was an African and possibly black.
Yet not one single blond hair, blue eyes and pale skin was ever mentioned, Not one. The only way white people will appear in the bible is if the people of turkey are regarded as white, and of course they won't be blonde hair, pale skin or blue eyes.

U came here claiming black Christians are being brainwashed by Europeans yet u are the one who has Benn gullible all along fallen for the antics of the Europeans who painted all bible characters as white people.

The bible has been translated into over 3000 languages. Just like the bible was translated to English, same way it was translated to other languages.

So the refined palm olein which they sell as groundnut/ vegetable oil here in Naija is what you call healthy. It's even written on the damn pack all those mamador and Co.

Some even call them bleached palm oil


Is there still original groundnut oil in this Naija market sef?

Except you buy those original oils, coconut, original olive, soya, canola etc your local original village palm oil is way better.

Fake palm oil mixed sef is now everywhere.
The general advice is to reduce the consumption of palm oil in your diet. Doesn't matter if it's vegetable oil extract from palm oil or red palm oil itself.
The calories in palm oil is 100% fat with 50% being saturated fat, this has been linked to LDL and increased cardiovascular health risk in the body.
The bleached palm oil should be avoided completely as it has little health benefit if any.

Red palm oil has vitamin A, E and antioxidants which is good for the body but u can easily get those in fruits and fresh vegetables without the baggage that comes with palm oil.
There's also the problem of high omega 6:3 ratio in palm oil. Omega 6 is a strong pro-inflammatory and not healthy for the body, the advice is to use cooking oil that has a low ratio of <10 for cooking. Palm oil has 44.5 ratio.

However, palm oil also has lower omega 6 content overall and much safer when compared with other vegetable oil in Nigerian market.
The op is misinformed, it's better the family stick with red palm oil if they cannot afford expensive ones like olive oil.

There is so much you need to learn about the Geopolitics of dietary oil.
There are huge commercial interests and pressure groups that control so call recommendations and research
It is not enough to parrot saturated or unsaturated if you have not spend days studying the matter

However with respect your assertion about Vegetable oils is nonsense


The reality is that all commercially available oils contain a mixture of saturated and unsaturated oils BUT that is NOT THE ONLY consideration in what is healthy or not e,g processing, genetic modification, Vitamin content, Herbicide content etc

There are many other considerations beyond saturation of Fatty acids

AND VEGETABLE sources of oil are the healthiest oils know especially when consumed without processing for example from NUTS

Dear Family,

I have been having this back and forth debate with my wife regarding cooking soup with groundnut oil as against red oil but she is on the negative. I had cooked Egusi soup with groundnut oil and it taste really nice. I had also done same with okra sea food and its really nice. The reason why I want to do away with red oil is because I have been advised on my cholesterol level and the odour from palm (red) oil doesn't sit well with me these days.

I want to serve my visitors Egusi soup prepared with groundnut oil but she's declined because she's not sure how it will be received....lol

Does anyone have experiences with cooking soups with only groundnut oil and how does it taste. okra, bitterleaf, oha, vegetable, edikaikong, egusi, etc
Except u using olive oil or rapeseed oil to cook, I don't really see your objection to palm oil because all vegetable oils apart from above are not healthy for the body.

People should ignore this pseudo intelligent fake guy called jaephonix. He's had an overloaded ego of himself.
He doesn't even know what he believes in. I've concluded long time ago he's confused.
Ask him the definition of destiny and see him give an islamic definition.

Regarding knowledge, ask him which gender has the most population. U will wonder his source of information.

There's absolutely no contradiction in the bible. We had this debate long time ago. I stead of him to stick to topic he was busy throwing tantrums

As for miracles, someone should send him the link of pastor jerry Eze. He's free to investigate those testimonies since the identity and location of each testifier are revealed.

I'm a guy and i honestly support this.

The one that baffles me is when seeing African ladies wearing wigs abroad.
Like WTF, how do you expect the people who you bought their hair to admire you.

TEAM NATURAL HAIR/AFRO/DREADS/DIDI/ALLBACK........ ANYDAY ANYTIME TWICE ON A THURSDAY
This is my biggest issue.
I understand if Nigerians at home wear wigs. But I can't get my head around why black women abroad will be wearing wig.
Do they think other race don't know it's not their hair. Who are u trying to impress with a fake hair.
It's lack of ingenuity and confidence issue to carry dead and fake hair for head and think people will be impressed.
Black women, adorn your hair; leave all this Asian and Latin hair alone.

No, he didn't write about it.
You should first learn what the book is about, and not just pick a line from it. The same way y'all do to jospehus.

Your Jesus is dead and gone, chrestian.
Lol so u finally accept Jesus is historical. For a long time u were so obstinate.

EVERY church in Africa.
It's like u inhale cow dung b4 coming to nairaland.
Show me any white character in the bible. Show me a blond hair and blue eye character in the bible.
Show me an European amongst the authors of the bible books. Just one white man who wrote anything inside the bible.

Then I will educate u on the black characters written about in the bible as well as bible authors of African origin.

Once we settle this, u will explain how someone from an ethnic group that is not white can be a white man.
