I leave it to thelist moderator to advise whether this is appropriate to
Ori~n or should be diverted to private communications. I'll answer that
there is and leave the rest to private email if you are interested.

In the Gospels we have many difficulties (all unrelated to Ori~n) concerning
later redactions, that Eusebius records that the Netzarim didn't accept the
Gospels (only 'their own Hebrew Matityahu'), etc. There are a myriad
difficulties, but I doubt they are appropriate in Ori~n. I'll be happy to
discuss them privately if you wish.

Absolutely, and again this is probably outside the scope of Ori~n and I'll
be happy to clarify privately, unless the list moderator has no objection (??)
