and you know in the earliest kabbalistic systems adonai (= malkuth) the lowest power/closest to mankind. not hard to see how it could be seen as a second power/god

a similar Aramaism appears in Irenaeus's citation of the Marcosian redemption rite. instead of "angels" he has "greatnesses"

rabbun would also explain why Matthew and the Gospel of the Hebrews have only "master" too (ie without "good"). the answer to all variants

The "Western" text (D it) has κύριε ῥαββί in Mark 10:51 instead of ραββουνι

The Peshitta has 'rabbi' in Mark 10:51 and 'rabbuli' which is odd. I don't know how that lamed popped up. It must be a corruption of rabbuni (http://books.google.com/books?id=6Pg...abbuli&f=false). I also found this at some site (of course promoting the primacy of the Aramaic):

Default The Jewish Origins of Marcionitism

I don't know if any of you have ever had that feeling where you are holding the most obvious clues in your hand and you can't believe you didn't see the answer before. The most common example of this type of experience is when someone you've been going out with is cheating on you. In this case it is the dualistic idea of 'the Lord of this world' is evil. This can't be Jewish - can it? Well I had mentioned before that Jastrow points to the title "Lord of the world"

רבונו של עולם

being developed into an acronym:

רש"ע

The geresh (i.e. the quotation mark thing ") is just there to note that this is an acronym. What kind of an imbecile can't see that the acronym spells out 'evil'

רֶ֫שַׁע


Apparently me and everyone else.

The association of evils with the Lord of the worlds is everywhere plainly evident. Take a look at Ber 9b's discussion of Exodus 3:14:

Quote:
I am that I am.7 The Holy One, blessed be He, said to Moses: Go and say to Israel: I was with you in this servitude, and I shall be with you in the servitude of the [other] kingdoms.8 He said to Him: Lord of the Universe, sufficient is the evil in the time thereof! Thereupon the Holy One, blessed be He, said to him: Go and tell them: I AM has sent me unto you.9

Hear me, O Lord, hear me.10 R. Abbahu said: Why did Elijah say twice: 'Hear me'? This teaches that Elijah said before the Holy One, blessed be He: Lord of the Universe, 'hear me', that the fire may descend from heaven and consume everything that is upon the altar; and 'hear me', that Thou mayest turn their mind that they may not say that it was the work of sorcery. For it is said: For Thou didst turn their heart backward
There are clearly two powers in heaven. The evil manifest against outsiders and the mercy shown to Israel. How could that one have been missed?

Here is an example of the acronym in Dalman http://books.google.com/books?id=Jl4...%D7%A2&f=false

Listed as one of many acronyms http://www.otzar.org/wotzar/pagetext...c=1&pagenum=93

It seems to be at least as old as Pesiqta rabbati (9th century): http://books.google.com/books?id=dno...=0CC4Q6AEwADge

Irenaeus says the name Jesus (yeshu) is a similar acronym = Lord of heaven and earth.

Did you ever see the movie Pi? (Not the Life of Pi.)

Sometimes what you post feels like it belongs in a similar movie.
