Well, Doherty took a consistent approach to revelation. The HJ school would call it the argument from silence. But it does buttress his approach. I cannot think how the HJ school would be capable of using this chapter to advance their case...

Will note that GD beat me to recommending the Apocamon. It is WELL worth the $0.25 to see all of it.

Re: Re: Book of Revelations
Quote:
John the disciple? John the Baptist? A John whose name is on the gospel? John the epistle writer? Or just plain John the apocalypse writer? Having a name doesn't tell you who wrote it. We have a name, Daniel, but that doesn't help us understand who wrote the book of Daniel which was written in the century before 164 BCE, though the second half within a year or two of that date. Having a name for a text might make you feel like you know something, but all that often is is a handle for a text, nothing more. spin |
