Originally posted by TOTAL LUNATICThis reminds me, I was watching this documentary about Jesus and they had this "Biblical scholar" who took issue with the literal reality of scripture. Verse by verse he took issue with pretty much everything that was written. The last words from him was about the last supper. He just shrugged his shoulders and said that he simply did not think it ever happened. In short, he did not believe that Christ and his disciples ever ate a last supper together before Christ went to the cross. He didn't even bother to give an explanation. I just thought to myself, surely he ate at some point before going to the cross. Hilarious!! π΅
My friend John Stone said that the last meal eaten by Jesus was donkey meat and it was common for Jews, Gentiles and Philistines to eat donkey at that time. Is anybody aware if Mr. Stone is correct??
Originally posted by whodeyThe writings about Jesus was done decades after the death of him, and should be descripted as hearsay. The gospels had an agenda for the church to establish in concurrence of other beliefs. Which gospels should be included and which to be excluded was decided not before 313 in Nicaea. Therefore, the gospel of Judas was excluded, as it disturbed the words of the other gospels.
