Peter, Paul, and Mary Magdalene - Bart Ehrman

[@aspektx]

I'll say one thing about vids concerning religion, Xtianity in particular, they always bring out the nutters. It's always a delight to watch commenters attack, insult, and rant against people who have spent their lives studying and researching an area of academic interest. Ehrman has 30+ years of research. He's fluent in Koine Greek, and has a passable grasp on Hebrew, Coptic, and I believe Latin. He has read the NT and associated literature more times and in more ways than any of us possibly ever will. But go ahead. I'm sure you clearly have more insight and understanding.

[@moncaman1]

BART you are a very amazing man I started listening to you about a year ago you're very interested and you're very knowledgeable on the Bible it's a shame I was raised very scared of God and I just want to thank you for explaining so much I do believe in God and he is very important to me and I think you're very important to this world thank you so much I hope I can understand a lot more by watching you..🧐👍😇🗽🇺🇸🌎.....

Gospel of Thomas saying #114. Simon Peter said to them, "Make Mary leave us, for females don't deserve life."

For every female who makes herself male will enter the kingdom of Heaven*** My Reading : The true spiritual self within a woman is the same as that of man in spirit. The Kingdom of God is within you (male or female) ...read Luke 17:21-22... "she too may become a living spirit resembling you males."...The kingdom of God within a man and woman is similar or alike or resemblance. This does not mean a woman to be become or make into a male in physical sense.

At about 14:30 or so, Ehrman talks about the lawsuit by the writers of Holy Blood, Holy Grail against Dan Brown (DaVinci Code) and IIRC, he incorrectly states the reason those writers lost their plagiarism case. IIRC, the decision by the judge was that since the writers of HBHG claimed that the book was history, it was not possible to plagiarize history. Thus, the HBHG writers were hung by their own petard.

Except the majority of scholars now think that the Gospel of Judas paints a *very* condemning picture of Judas. The Sethians who wrote it condemned the "Orthodox" church by claiming their human sacrifice teachings to a blood-thirsty demiurge (represented by the apostles) were evil and Judas the most evil of them all.

[@aspektx]

Ehrman has a good lecture on KZbin concerning the Gospel of Judas. He was one of the people to help verify the document along with a Coptic scholar and a papyrologist that he reccomended.

[@anotheryou218]

If there was a Jesus, he lived too long ago and was too obscure during his lifetiime to have been documented adequately enough so that there is no question of his existence. Therefore, this is likely an endless (and fruitless) debate. However, we do have the purported teachings of Jesus, which if examined with discernment reveal certain principles which can be adopted into one's life and practiced. Really, what is more important? That we investigate the veracity of the teachings as they can be applied to our lives here and now or that we can establish the historical origin of those teachings? If there was a Jesus who was responsible for these teachings, what do you think would have mattered to him?,

[@anotheryou218]

AnarchoRepublican I agree, but that doesn't make it nearly as important (to me) as the fact that the teachings can be practiced and verified through experience. The principles underlying Jesus' teachings are not unique to him, but indeed he had "made them his own" and expressed them in his own unique voice with an authority that "astonished" his listeners.

[@DennisTate643]

A near death experiencer was shown more details about the relationship between Rabbi Yeshua - Jesus and Mary Magdalene. .... ... "One day, when we were in Jerusalem, the Pharisees and others who lived only by the letter of the law, brought before Yeshua a woman who was beautiful and, having been caught in the act of adultery, had been stripped to the waist to reveal her shame to others. “The Law of Moses tells us that those caught in adultery should be stoned to death. This woman we caught in the very act and her shame is revealed. Should we stone her?” "Yeshua looked at the woman crouched on the ground with her nakedness revealed. "Stand up." he said to her "and face your accusers." Then he said to the men who had brought her, “Look on her! Is there any man among you who does not feel the wish in his heart to do the same act with her? She is a beautiful woman. Let him who is without sin cast the first stone.” There was much hesitation, the woman standing before the men, as the stones dropped one by one. When the accusers left, Yeshua turned again to the woman and said, “You may clothe yourself again. No one has condemned you. Neither do I.” Then he turned to us and said, “Any man who has looked on a woman with lust, has already committed adultery with her in his heart. Do not judge the woman if the same desire is in your own heart, because then we would all be stoned to death.” “What is your name?” he asked the woman. “Mary --- of Magdala.” “Go and sin no more,” he said. “I will not sin, but I cannot go. You have already taught me much and I would learn more. My life was darkness, but now I see light in your face. You have saved my life. Perhaps you can teach me how to control my great desire.”| ( Bruce F. MacDonald Ph. D., The Thomas Book, Near Death, a Quest and a New Gospel by the Twin Brother of Jesus)

The thing that fascinates me most about Bart is his intense interest in something he doesnt believe.

Ive never heard of an Islamic scholar studying the Quran after he decided to leave Islam. Ive never seen a Christian studying the roots of Atheism and writing books on it if they are Christian so why is Bart doing that as an Agnostic. If you believe the Bible is inaccurate then or corrupt then thats fine but do you need to go around preaching it as well ? I mean what does he get out of it ? Does he feel like hes some kind of a Messiah preaching the real Gospel that the old Gospel is a fraud?

If Mary Magdalene went to Jesus' tomb and was the first to proclaim Jesus' missing body, starting Christianity (as Ehrman claims), then she had an address of a tomb. B. Ehrman just contradicted himself in another book where he says that Jesus most probably wasn't buried as crucified criminals were left to rot on the cross. So why is Mary Magdalene visiting tombs at all? Was she crazy then?

[@VSP4591]

No she was no crazy. This is the story of the OT. Jesus was crucified, buried and later on resurected. Bart just issued a hypothesis that, in reality, Jesus was not buried at all. So, in the logic of the NT somebody would have visited the grave on the third day.

[@soslothful]

[@johnnykay7411]

Gregory the Great in his own mind as the pope, stated in 1591 that Mary was a fallen woman in the church's continuing desire to destroy worship of the Divine Feminine. The Knights Templar dedicated Notre Dame to her, Mary of Magdala, rather than Mary the mother, for many reasons. They were neither wrong nor misguided.

[@allenanderson4911]

Nonsense. The cult of Mary, the mother of Yeshua, is the veneration of a female. Catholics even address plaintive prayers to her. They go way out of the scripture to invent a sacred feminine cult.

Matthew 21:11 And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. Mark 6:4 But Jesus, said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house. Mark 6:15 Others said, That it is Elias. And others said, That it is a prophet, or as one of the prophets. Luke 4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country. Luke 7:16 And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying, That a great prophet is risen up among us; and, That God hath visited his people. Luke 13:33 Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem. John 4:19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet. John 4:44 For Jesus himself testified, that a prophet hath no honour in his own country. John 6:14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world. So Jesus answered them and said, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me"(John 7:16) John 7:40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet. So Jesus said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and I do nothing on my own initiative, but I speak these things as the Father taught me (John 8:28) John 9:17 They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a PROPHET. For I did not speak on my own initiative, but the Father himself who sent me has given me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak. I know that His commandment is eternal life; therefore the things I speak, I speak just as the Father has told me (John 12:49-50) He who does not love me does not keep my words; and the word which you hear is not mine, but the Father's who sent me (John 14:24)

[@claudetteearle3052]

I am so happy to comment that my research has lead me in a different direction. in those days even the deciples did not understand what Jesus was trying to teach them. They did not believe in the equality of women and men but Jesus never shared those beliefs and although the Bible (which has been changed, added to and deleted in parts) did not say much about Mary, Jesus was especially close to her and they the deciples did not like it; in fact they hated her and treated her badly when Jesus was not around. the Bible made Jesus so inconsistent, one has to choose which parts to believe by measuring each aspect against LOVE. Jesus was about love in thought, words and deeds. Peter was extremely flawed and although Jesus loved him - Jesus did not judge - John was closer to Jesus than him. Peter only changed after he saw the "resurection" which was not really a resurrection as Christians believe. Once you are dead where the silver cord has snapped releasing physical body from the soul which continues with the spirit body. Jesus returned as a spirit, a highly developed spirit and Mary was the first to see him because she was special to him..not the men. There is much I can say here with much more clarity thst when I listen to these experts my feeling that they haven't started yet.. sorry! and by the way, Jesus was not tge first to rise from the dead. Everybody who has ever died physically rises instantly...no waiting. Jesus also rose instantly. CE

[@mothernature1755]

Physically rises?

[@claudetteearle3052]

Mother Nature no, to my understanding it was not a physical rising but a spiritual one. However, such was the power of Jesus, his reappearance seemed physical to those who saw him. And of course the people then didn’t understand spirituality. They didn’t even realise that they too were spiritual beings having a human experience in a human body, just like a Jesus was prior to his physical death. More to the truth: we are not our bodies; we are souls, using our physicality to bring our life experiences (what we call good and bad) to the soul - who we really are. The body Jesus adopted did not even look like the one before he died which is why his disciples did not recognise him...at first; but they later did because of the recognition of his soul...personality, attributes, character, the way he carried himself, etc. But he manifested his injuries just for Thomas who was having a particularly hard time coming to terms with his death. Much bigger story than could fit into the Bible. Ever wondered why we know nothing about Jesus in the Bible, after the age of 12 until he appeared again at the age of 30?

The anxiety they feel about not being good enough (possibly from messages received as child) drives them to earn the approval of God by doing stuff for him, in extreme cases of delusion a person derives meaning from actually BEING Jesus (or whoever).

I would suggest that to become male meant to be an adult. Women were children in the Roman world.

say what! Jesus says woman have to be male to attain eternal life. don't believe it.

If some of the stories have been altered, then it could all be altered, and that's what the problems of Christianity are, the gospels were all written decades after the fact, none of the gospel writers new Jesus, all the gospels differ, and Jesus said himself that he had only come for the Jews, it was Paul who started all that. Take care, are you praying to an Idol, because if you are G_D hates anyone bowing down to any one other than HIM. search the Jewish Torah for the truth, I am not Jewish, just in case you think I have an axe to grind.

The "cast the first stone" story must be fake, because people never see their own sins. They would have just stoned her. It is a story to teach forgiveness, not a real event.

[@KevinPaul444]

Everybody, when he was speaking of how Peter was a miracle worker, and leader of the church, that is not true, Paul made him falsely into a miracle worker based on a fictional character creation, Simon the Magician, who was a front for Paul really, the truth is opposite, Peter went out to preach unto the Gentiles, after Paul, not before.

[@TheOmegaSquadHD]

+Kevin Paul Peter preached to non jews BEFORE PAUL read acts chapter 2

[@KevinPaul444]

+The Omega Agents HD That is fine, but when Paul went out to preach to the Gentiles, Peter had to go to each town after Paul to correct the teaching and baptize them. It is documented in the suppressed acts of Peter which are now only being discovered in this current day, so it will still be many years because more and more people are aware of the truth.

[@TheOmegaSquadHD]

Kevin Paul The Acts of Peter has been known for long over a decade and sounds completely stupid to me. Talking dogs? Its almost as dumb as saying a Serpent can talk or a donkeys mouth can be opened and speak, both which are written in the Bible. Hey, I know God can do anything, I really do, but somethings just seem odd. I personally dont believe Peter ever set foot in Rome

[@KevinPaul444]

+The Omega Agents HD I'm not referring to the book Acts of Peter, yes that book is similar to many apocrypha books of the new testament, written by Gentiles following after the liars of Paul and Josephus. But I am referring to the True acts of Peter, hidden within the memoirs of his disciple, Clement of Rome. Have you read all of the Recognitions of Clement? Here is a link - www.studylight.org/history/early-church-fathers/view.cgi?sid=ant&aid=08-04 A lot of what I am about to say below is affirmed in the Recognitions of Clement, even with it being a still Greek doctrine handed down to us, so just imagine what the unedited Aramaic or Hebrew doctrine would have sounded like, it just would have been all the more clear, not to follow Paul. I also agree that Peter did not go to Rome, and was also not crucified, as pointed out within those books I am referring to. The followers of the apostles believed in the Ascension, not the Resurrection, simply meaning that the Christ "rose" into heaven in spirit, and not as if a zombie risen from the grave. But referring to how he ate bread with them after the crucifixion, that is because he was let down from the cross, as told from Josephus, and in the Dead Sea Scrolls. And he was exiled to England, as some researchers have come across, Mary Magdalene was separated and exiled to France. That is why there is a legacy of them in England and France, because it is true. Surely the truth has been omitted form history, and the way for us to find it is to gather bits and pieces of it, and put them together. In my investigation I have concluded that the apostles were Essene Nazarenes, and that the Zealots and Sicarii were branches of the Sadducees - just what they did not want us to figure out. The Herodians were aligned with the Sadducees, and Paul was really a Herodian. Both of these parties were aligned with the Romans. By the time of the fall of the city, the majority of the public were aligned with the Nazarene church under James the Just, but he was stoned, which led to civil war. Finally the people saw that the Essene way of life gained prominence, but shortly after the Romans, Sadduccees, and Herodians, destroyed everyone siding with the Nazarenes or Essenes and then had a goal to eliminate all Essene bloodlines and historical remnant of their existence, which is what we see, the true church was destroyed and false doctrines were written over it, pretending to stem from the truth. That is why Paul speaks about the Nazarenes with contempt in his early letters, his new church is one of greed and animosity because he is destroying the source and starting from his own agenda. Nobody knows any of this specifically because Paul and the historian Josephus are liars, if people understood that they were complete liars Christianity would be the opposite of what it is.

[@TheOmegaSquadHD]

Kevin Paul Its funny how Peter and paul preached a different message. Peter taught the Law of Moses and good deeds would save you. Paul taught that faith alone and sometimes good behavior would save you because of a dead man. The Bible says no man can die for the sins of another

God tells us he will send a strong delusion (these occult/gnostic templar heresies that corrupt scripture by adding to it or taking away from it and then blaming the church for doing it) for those who do not have a love of the truth (the word of god).

@@tedgrant2 God is no longer the God of physical Israel (who he divorced in the pisces age new testament age by creating all things new and spiritual. This was made clear through all the warning prophecies about the coming destruction in 70ad. He is now the God of spiritual israel meaning all of humanity who come to christ Jesus who fulfilled the physical and literal requirements of Israel in a spiritual way, making anyone who believes in him and follows him now also spiritual israel). Its so funny when people still call him the God of Israel like they are stuck in the past. He is now the God of spiritual israel (who is Jesus and his body of believers and follower, also known as christians).

[@tedgrant2]

@@Godsvessel4truth I don't think the Israelites would agree with your analysis. The Bible was written by the Israelites, so I would turn to them for any further information about it. As I am a Gentile, I feel rather left out of the plans of Jesus. As you know he was sent to save the Lost Sheep of Israel (Matthew 15:24)

[@tedgrant2]

@@Godsvessel4truth In my Bible, the term, "God of Israel" appears over 200 times. All the way from Exodus to Luke (who wrote "blessed be the Lord God of Israel"). I don't live in Israel. I am a Gentile.

@@Godsvessel4truth Christianity, as it came to my country, was invented in Rome a long time ago. If it wasn't for the Roman Empire, Christianity would have died out a long time ago. Christianity is a corruption of Judaism and was rejected by the Jewish scholars as blasphemy. Protestantism is a corruption of Roman Catholicism and many protestants were burned for heresy.

God, the creator gave you the power of reason. Why would you not use it? Why would you spend your life in an illusion of man's making? We know that man can be corrupt and evil? It is your duty to seek the truth, no matter where it takes you. Why would you want to live a life of falsehood? How will that benefit you? As you can see what happens when people suspend their reason, they end up following someone like Jim Jones that leads to a bad end.

Mean evil and arrogant people to chill out and behave 🤣 oh just heard further through they do discuss her gospel. That's good then. If you've just seen jesus be raised and go to heaven. And believe he is son. It would be scary still to be hunted down and killed but their death wouldn't of been so scary cos they know....they are going to heaven. Its us who haven't seen who still believe where it's more scary. We have to make our minds up they physically saw!

Messenger of God is more appropriate and accurate because the Apostles in Acts called Jesus "Servant of God"

Jesus in Islam is easily comprehensible unlike Bible. He was a man, a prophet, born miraculously without a father. He performed many miracles by God’s permission and never said he was God. Jesus was not killed or crucified, but saved by Almighty God and taken upto Him. He will come back before end of time, establish justice, kill Dajjal (the anti-christ) and will die here as death is inevitable to human. Jesus and Mary are great figures in ISLAM, many verses about them in Quran.

He didn't call anyone a "lunatic," but he has plenty of evidence that the Bible contains plagiarism, so lies therefore DO inhabit the Bible. See his book "Forgery," if for no other reason than that you probably don't want to distort what your opponents say. Too much of that already among the religious folk.
