    The American Baptist Historical Society in Atlanta has a copy of "Bird's Eye View of the Life of Paul". There are several newspaper articles from the 1890s which suggest that Isaac Earle took these pamphlets on a lecturing tour of the northeast around that time. He may never have actually published the Paul pamphlet but it does seem to exist.

      I suspect they are all published, but none or almost none survived to the modern day. I suspect this is due to a combination of low production rate and the target audience not placing any value on retention of these documents and viewing them as read and toss literature, which is common with all pamphlets of this style.

      As a believer (Christian) myself, I also agree. Far too many of my own have dogmatic views where even other Christian branches that may disagree even to a certain extent, will shun them out. I personally believe the Bible is not meant to be fully understood in one’s own lifetime. Rather it should be read over, meditated on, and ask questions for clarity. In my opinion, the Bible is much more nuanced than many give it credit for.

    It's indeed a really nice map. One detail I noticed that you didn't mention is that the exact position of the point that marks an event within the geographic section also relates to it's geography. For example, events happening in Betharaba are marked near the horizontal line that divides Peraea and Judea because Betharaba is indeed very close to the geographic border between Peraea and Judea. That's some major planning about how to order the horizontal sections and placing the dots!

Faith is the only option I can conceive of, and I've tried to be faithful even to the extent of understanding that suffering is a necessary consequence of free will. But I don't believe in the mysteries because of the bigotry of so many adherents, because of their denial of scientific observation, and because so many claim to believe just so they can be part of a community of worshipers who exaggerate or lie about their experience of faith.

      @@myghkl Interesting. I agree with the difficulty of conceptualizing the Creator, but for those questions or stumbling blocks I tend to refer to the architecture of our universe and what’s in it and find solace in the fact that their must be a grand architect. Now for me I believe the evidence leads to Christ due to the Bible’s Old testament prophecies being fulfilled then and in the New testament.
      I also empathize with you because of how many “Christians” seem to pretend or hyperbolize their experiences for clout or monetary gain. And not just that they don’t follow what they say to believe or preach. It’s frustrating and makes it difficult but for that I look to the Bible for those answers on why people are like that and realize that’s the nature of humans and that’s why we need God to help us be like He describes Himself to be, because if we don’t we are all destined to seek our own god of our hands/self.

How can those, hearing Christ for the first and only time, understand if his disciples can't? There are two important features of Christianity established in these portions of the Gospels. First, Christ is seen as irritable and lacking persuasive talent. While linking him to the impatient God of the O.T., it opens the door to Arianism. Second, the door is opened to theological interpretation initiated by the evangelists, continued by the Church Fathers and atomized in the 17th & 18th cen. by sects claiming that the scriptures should be interpreted by each believer in possession of the spirit. The more I learn about Christianity, the harder it gets to have faith.

    There's a theory that the reason for the gap of information from 12 to 30 is that Jesus traveled to northern India and learned Buddhist philosophies throughout his teens and 20s. That explains why he suddenly reappears at 30 with all these big ideas about harmony and peace and getting rid of material possessions. It's often coupled with the theory that he survived crucifixion, as he was on the cross for a much shorter time than most people executed that way, and traveled back to Kashmir where he lived out the rest of his life.

    I'm not the student of chronology that I wish I were, but am persuaded that Jesus' public ministry was actually just over a year, and not the 3 1/2 years first suggested by Eusebius. Yes, there is a "problem" with John 6:4 but church historians before Eusebius all seemed to agree that Jesus' ministry was "about a year." This seems reasonable in view of the prophecy that the final Passover Lamb had to be one year old, without blemish.

    I remember hearing Bart Ehrman talk about reading the gospels in parallel without harmonization, and picking up on some discrepancies in the order of events (such as the timing of the flipping the tables of the money changers) and geography of things. Obviously it can be harmonized as this chart does for example, but I'm kind of interested now in a version of this chart that takes the 4 very linearly and in parallel with each other. It might illuminate some on the more dramatic vertical (spatial) swings/back and forths, and show some about how the harmonization itself is reasoned/constructed.
    It'd also be neat if some of the more interesting ancient non-canonical gospels got a similar treatment. Presumably a gospel that was just made up would be more geographically and temporally inconsistent, whereas something maybe reflecting genuine sayings or historicity or a strong tradition would presumably line up well (not that lining up well does the heavy lifting of evidencing that such a book "should" be canon or whatever, since someone could just work from the material of the canonical gospels, it would just be one avenue of a lack of evidence against it).

      Bart Ehrman said that the gospels sometimes contradict each other.
      In the charts, for example, Jesus family goes to Egypt. That’s according to Matthew.
      According to Luke, no Egypt. They go to Jerusalem and Galilee.
      Both cannot be true.
      Same for the map of Jerusalem : we don’t know where all the locations mentioned in the Bible were. The city was destroyed in 70, and rebuilt after the Bar Kochba uprising. its inhabitants were banished, the city rebuilt as a roman city. So, nobody remembered where were Gethsemani garden or Golgotha were. They were « miraculously » rediscovered in the 4th century.
      So the chart is cherry picking, which is not honest.

    Hey Matt! I've been binge watching your videos for 2 weeks straight and learning so much about various religion and their history. Will there be a possibility that you can give us an in depth chart of the history of Hailie Selassie and the religion of Rastafari. That would be super interesting to learn about. I heard that he fled from Ethiopia and lived in exile somewhere in Europe while losing a battle against Italy and that in his last years he wasn't wel respected compared to the times in his early days gaining popularity around the world. That leaves me with a question: How did he became so influential and is still known as the best Emperor that ever lived , even having a religion made despite those events in his life? Like what did He really do that makes him such a great Emperor? I'm actually a Christian by the way and never thought i learned so much by a Jew💪🏽

    • @Dave_Sisson
      @Dave_Sisson Рік тому +8

      Hailie Selassie was the last emperor of Ethiopia, a highland country in east Africa that had remained Christian since circa 300 A.D. despite being surrounded by Muslim countries for well over 1000 years. Ethiopia was never colonised, but when they caused bother to the British Empire in the 1800s, there was a quick invasion which resulted in a new and more compliant emperor being installed. Italy invaded in 1936 and briefly occupied the country until the British invaded, threw the Italians out and put Hailie Selassie back on the throne in about 1940. He continued to reign until the early 1970s when a socialist revolution resulted in the country becoming a republic. He went into exile and died soon after.
      Ethiopian emperors get a new name when they ascend to the throne, just like Catholic popes. So Josef Ratzinger became Pope Benedict and Hailie Selassie was born Ras Tafari. Ethiopia is an Oriental Orthodox nation, so their faith is rather different than the Roman Catholics and even Eastern Orthodox (Greece, Russia, etc). The emperor *strongly disapproved* of Rastafarianism which began in the West Indies (Jamaica I think) when people were looking for a black role model. Despite Ethiopia being an east African country and adherents of Rastafarianism being of west African origin with no genetic relationship, the Rastas depicted him as a new messiah for black people which horrified the devoutly Christian emperor. Wikipedia has excellent articles on both Hailie Selassie and Rastafarianism if you want to know more.

Yehoshua bar Yosef the Galilean’ [‘Jesus son of Joseph’ see John 1:45] was 48 years old at his arrest and execution during THE Insurrection (c. 35/36 CE) see Mark 14:52-57) at the 100th Anniversary of the brutal Roman Occupation of Judaea beginning 63 BCE under Pompey
    The enigmatic verse ‘which John encoded into his gospel’ is : ‘46 years was this temple in the Re-building and yet you claim you can burn it to the ground & rebuild another one in its place in three days?’ BUT HE WAS SPEAKING OF THE TEMPLE OF HIS BODY’ (John 2:19-20)
    46 years before c. 34 CE would place the date of Jesus’ birth somewhere around 13/12 BCE during an appearance of Halley’s Comet - the ‘sign of the BarEnasha (‘son of man’ see Aramaic Daniel 7:13ff) in the heavens’ which also mark’d the Macabbean Revolt in c. 163 BCE as a ‘sign of the Days of Vengeance of our clan-god against the Gentiles’
    So the Matthean Daviddic midrashic legend of ‘the star of Bethlehem’ [A star shall rise in Jacob: a Sceptre from Yisro’el who will crush the skulls of the ‘Kittim’] which appeared ‘as lightning flashing from east to west across the face[s] of the heavens’ may have a trace of historical underpinnings in view of his crucifixion for arm’d sedition against the state by brandishing broadswords during THE insurrection [cf. the ‘warrior messiah’ imagery-propaganda in the ‘book of Revelation’ aka ApocYohan.]
    Presumably the historical underpinnings of this ‘sign of the Son of Man in heaven’ (Halley’s Comet, 11-19 Sept 13/12 BCE) ‘blinking out’ after passing over Bethlehem (‘bakery’) the ‘city of David’ guiding the ‘Magoi’ [Zoroastrian astrologer priests] to know when to stop ?
    Food for thought anyway - !!

    I'm going to suggest that the placement of the story of turning water into wine at the wedding is probably an error (perhaps in the recording by the apostle) and that it most probably preceded his baptism since, after that time, he seems to have separated himself from his family in deference to the ministry. Certainly we see that he still had contact with them, but as the quote from the Temple visit says, "I must be about my Father's business." This is just my opinion but it fits as I see things.
    I've also caught the discrepancies in the timeline within the scriptures about the last days of Jesus. So debates are quite understandable and it has to come down to, "while the record doesn't allow us to be exact, this sequence seems most likely, therefore we're going to run with that."

    I'm curious to know how this particular sequence was decided on. It is something that is debated among Christians and among biblical scholars, how to compile the events of the gospels into one narrative sequence. See, there are many scholars and christians who believe that the disciples reported the events of the life of Jesus in a sequence that served their theological message, as opposed to reporting them in chronological order (not uncommon for biographical works of the day). It seems to me that compiling them into one coherent sequence is a complicated task, whose results are likely to be far from conclusive.
