There probably       as much in the Bible borrowed from elsewhere as backdated but, that       hardly dates the N.T. The N.T. dates to when it was compiled as the N.T.       and in the context of Christianity, not from whatever point in time it's       oldest "source" material came from.                                          -- --              https://jtem.tumblr.com/post/186288224153              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
