Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2023 in the subject Theology - Biblical Theology, grade: A, , language: English, abstract: This paper deals with the investigation of the inherent implications of Codices XII and XIII to the Canonical Bible. According to Charles Hedrick, Codex XII was part of one of the groups of codices possessed by the antiquities dealer Phocion J. Tano during 1946 to 48. It was preserved at the Department of Antiquities in 1949, taken to the Coptic Museum on 9 June 1952 and stated national property by court action in 1956, and was given the inventory number 10555 in 1959. In 1949 it had been numbered XII by Jean Doresse and Togo Mina, in 1950 numbered XIII by Henri Charles Puech, since 1958 it was numbered XI by Doresse, and in 1962 was numbered XII by Martin Krause and James M. Robinson. In April 1961 it was preserved in 12 plexiglass containers by Victor Girgis in consultation with Pahor Labib and Martin Krause. Photographs were taken by R. Herzog for Krause at that time, and once more by photographers of the Center of Documentation for UNESCO in 1966. fragments were set and photographs taken at three work sessions during 1970 to 71 under the supervision of the Technical Sub Committee of the International Committee for the Nag Hammadi Codices of the Arab Republic of Egypt and UNESCO. Of all the Nag Hammadi Codices, Codex XII is in the poorest condition of conservation. There are no titles or page numbers remaining, although at least three discourses are depicted. Of the about thirty nine original pages of the Sentences of Sextus (XIl,1) ten survive, of which eight miss parts of the top and bottom lines, but the remaining two (from a separate part of the discourse) have lost the outside half of the leaf. Of the originally twenty nine pages of The Gospel of Truth (XIl, 2) has fragments of only six. Until the two larger remaining fragments {numbers I and 2 on pl. 101 to 102 of the Facsimile publication: Codices XI, XII, XIII) can be connected with a familiar piece of literature, it is impossible to say whether; they depict one or two other discourses (Charles 289). Since the remnants come from different parts of the codex, it is possible that the principal loss was suffered since the discovery in modem times. The initial size of the codex cannot be restored. The estimated initial lengths of the Sentences of Sextus and the Gospel of Truth with the four pages of a third discourse, for which evidence remains, sums up to a minimum of seventy-two pages. The third discourse, nevertheless, was almost certainly longer than four pages.

Download or read book Look What s Missing written by David W. Daniels and published by Chick Publications. This book was released on 2011 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Publishers are removing things from new Bibles! Publishers of modern Bible versions have been removing words, phrases, and even whole verses, but their readers are often unaware of it. Few people know the Bible well enough to notice when something has been taken out. But the results are hard to believe. The removal of one tiny word turns Jesus into a liar. Callers into Christian talk shows have even used this to say that it’s okay for a Christian to lie. After all, they say, Jesus did it. A verse that’s completely missing from some of the most popular Bibles available today completely removes one of the basic doctrines found in every evangelical church. When David Daniels shows this one to people they just stand with their mouths open and say, “I can’t believe it!” In another case, Jesus’ own words are removed, taking out a famous phrase in which Jesus explains why He came to earth. People react with: “They took out Jesus words! How can they do that?” This information has been right under our noses for years, but no one has ever taken the time to cull through this many Bible versions and find the missing parts. Author David Daniels did the research and now releases his results for the Christian world to see what is really missing. How about your Bible? Is it on the list of Bibles with pieces taken out? You might be surprised when you look at what’s missing.

Download or read book Jews and Protestants written by Irene Aue-Ben David and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-08-24 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book sheds light on various chapters in the long history of Protestant-Jewish relations, from the Reformation to the present. Going beyond questions of antisemitism and religious animosity, it aims to disentangle some of the intricate perceptions, interpretations, and emotions that have characterized contacts between Protestantism and Judaism, and between Jews and Protestants. While some papers in the book address Luther’s antisemitism and the NS-Zeit, most papers broaden the scope of the investigation: Protestant-Jewish theological encounters shaped not only antisemitism but also the Jewish Reform movement and Protestant philosemitic post-Holocaust theology; interactions between Jews and Protestants took place not only in the German lands but also in the wider Protestant universe; theology was crucial for the articulation of attitudes toward Jews, but music and philosophy were additional spheres of creativity that enabled the process of thinking through the relations between Judaism and Protestantism. By bringing together various contributions on these and other aspects, the book opens up directions for future research on this intricate topic, which bears both historical significance and evident relevance to our own time.

Download or read book Cold Case Christianity written by J. Warner Wallace and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In antiquity, the twelve books of the Minor Prophets were transmitted as a single volume known as the Book of the Twelve. This 1994 Duke dissertation uses manuscript discoveries from the Judean Desert and a fresh re-appraisal of the Greek translation of the Minor Prophets to argue for the existence of three versions of the Book of the Twelve in ancient Judaism. The differences between these versions illustrate the role that ancient biblical interpretation played in the shaping of the canonical prophetic literature. Among its other contributions, the book marshalls textual evidence for the integrity and chronological priority of the Hebrew text of the Septuagint Minor Prophets as compared to the Masoretic textual tradition. -- Back Cover.
