Please. Do feel free to share with all, the results of your erudite scholarship on the following ancient anthropological subject;

מבין אתה הלשון העבר ? אם כן׃ המבין חקות שמים אם־תשים משטרו בארץ׃

Sure you do.
And how well you understood the anthropological implications of the rest.

There is a concept in Judaism whereby a righteous man's death can serve as an atonement for HIS OWN generation and atoning for their sins. However, a vicarious atonement for all generations is unheard of in Judaism. But I suppose it's theoretically possible that these people misunderstood this Jewish notion in applying the atonement by the crucifixion.

Hebrew Scriptures do NOT STATE ANYWHERE that Jesus Christ died for OUR SINS and was raised on the THIRD day.
Please note, 'died for our sins' concept is occurring in other Pauline epistles. And if the Paulines were written after the gospels, don't you think we would see a lot more of gospel material in the epistles?
You are hanging here on a few words and I have many reasons to consider 1Cor15:3-11 the result of an interpolation, which would explain the oddity of those words (and other things) in a Pauline epistle.

Now, the claim that the Pauline writings are early is completely WITHOUT corroboration by the authors of the Canon
But 1Clement put Peter & Paul at about the same time (after Jesus' death) and the author said Paul wrote at least one letter, which details he gave identify it as 1Corinthians. And Peter is a companion of Jesus in the gospels.
And Josephus wrote about Philo of Alexandria without mentioning Philo wrote anything. So shall we think Philo's works are all forgery and written late?
You are trying to make an argument from silence here. And what evidence do you have for a late writing, besides your circular argument?

Let us TEST your implications.

You put forward the notion that the Pauline Epistles should have more gospel material if they were written AFTER THE GOSPELS.

Now Examine ALL the so called Epistles that are considered as non-Pauline.

1. The First Epistle to Timothy does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus.

2. The Second Epistle to Timothy does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

3. The Epistle to Titus does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

4. The Epistle to Philemon does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

5. Hebrews does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

6. The First Epistle of Peter does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

7. The Second Epistle of Peter does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

8. The Epistle of James does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

9. The First Epistle of John does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

10 The Second Epistle of John does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

11. The Third Epistle of John does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus

12. The Epistle of Jude does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus


In the NT Canon all the Epistles including Hebrews do NOT have much gospel material even though claimed to have been written by Apostles and relatives of Jesus and AFTER the Pauline writings and AFTER the Gospels.

Again, you have IMPLODED.

ALL the General Epistles and Hebrews are PRESUMED to be AFTER the Pauline writings YET they show that they do NOT have much Gospeland Pauline material.

Quote:
4. The Epistle to Philemon does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
This short epistle is considered among the seven letters written by Paul by most critical scholars and I.

Quote:
5. Hebrews does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
According to my analysis and many critical scholars, written before the gospels

Quote:
7. The Second Epistle of Peter does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
Yes it does:
2Pe 1:17 For when he received honor and glory from God the Father and the voice was borne to him by the Majestic Glory, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,"
2Pe 1:18 we heard this voice borne from heaven, for we were with him on the holy mountain.
It also mentions Paul as a writer.

Quote:
8. The Epistle of James does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
I think that letter was written before the gospels and contains stuff against Paul & other apostles who were boasting and extrapolating:
Jam 3:5 So the tongue is a little member and boasts of great things. How great a forest is set ablaze by a small fire!
Jam 3:6 And the tongue is a fire. The tongue is an unrighteous world among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the cycle of nature, and set on fire by hell.
Jam 3:7 For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed and has been tamed by humankind,
Jam 3:8 but no human being can tame the tongue--a restless evil, full of deadly poison

Quote:
10 The Second Epistle of John does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
That's a tiny epistle!

Quote:
11. The Third Epistle of John does NOT contain a quote from the Gospel Jesus
Another tiny epistle

If we look only to the epistles not written by Paul AND after the gospels AND not ultra short, we have 2 out of 7 or 8 (you forgot 2Th) which contain gospel material.
That's better than 1 out of 7 for the deemed genuine Pauline letters according to you.
Also, because you place the epistles very late, the forger would also have to ignore Justin Martyr quoting the memoirs of the apostles, gospels and gospel.
And also 1Clement, widely considered the earliest non canonical epistle (written 96 for many, 81 according to my analysis) does some cut and paste on gMark material and, in other places, used more bits from gMark. He also knew about 'Hebrews' and Paul having written 1Corinthians.
See my discussion on 1Clement here:
http://historical-jesus.info/gospels.html#1Clement
Other canonical and non canonical texts written before 2nd century and containing gospels material:
Revelation, epistle of Barnabas and the Didache. See explanations on this webpage: http://historical-jesus.info/gospels.html

I did NOT mention ALLUSIONS. I stated about 12 times that the Epistles which are not considered Pauline and AFTER the Gospels and AFTER the Pauline writings do NOT have a quote from the Gospel Jesus.

None of them QUOTED the supposed words of Jesus FOUND in the Gospels.

The non-Pauline Epistles have triggered another implosion by CLEARLY showing that they have very little Gospel material although supposedly LATE.

But, NOW I will show you that the supposed Pauline writer did KNOW of gLuke and QUOTED Gospel Jesus--NOT ALLUSIONS--NOT ILLUSIONS.

Luke 22:19 KJV
Quote:
And he took bread, and gave thanks , and brake it, and gave unto them, saying , This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
1 Corinthians 11:24 KJV
Quote:
And when he had given thanks , he brake it, and said , Take , eat : this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Only gLuke's Jesus said THIS DO IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME

Only the Pauline writer QUOTED the Gospel Jesus WORD-for-WORD.

1. Paul claimed there was Scriptures that state Jesus DIED for OUR SINS and was resurrected on the THIRD day.

2. Apologetic sources, Origen and Eusebius, claimed PAUL was AWARE of gLuke.

3. There is a WORD-for-WORD QUOTE of gLuke's Jesus in the Pauline writings.


The Pauline writings ARE AFTER the Jesus story was known and circulated in the Roman Empire that Jesus was BETRAYED after he had supped, was cruicified, DIED for OUR SINS and was Resurrected on the THIRD day.

The Pauline writer is a FRAUD.

The writer LIVED in another century under a different name and gave the FALSE IMPRESSION that he wrote letters to churches in the Roman Empire and Met Apostles in the Jesus stories Before the Fall of the Temple.

Well, there is NO evidence whatsoever from any credible sources that the so-called Apostles Peter/Cephas, James and John did exist.

There were NO Pauline letters, No PAULINE Churches and NO Apostles of a Non-human Jesus.

Paul did claim his Jesus was NON-HUMAN. Galatians 1.1

Your argument has been turned into rubble.

Of all the Epistles the Pauline writings have the MOST Gospel material which indicates that they were written AFTER the Jesus story was known.

It is not word-for-word at all. 1 Corinthians 11:
23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

Luke 22: 17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. 18 For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”

20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a]

The mention of Pontius Pilate in 1Timothy and the alleged words of God on the mountain in 2Peter (corresponding to gMatthew version) are not allusions. What I considered allusion is from again 1Timothy 1:4 "Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions,"
And let's not forget about 4 other Christian texts written before the 2nd century (according to most scholars and I, after analysis), Revelation, the Didache, epistle of Barnabas and 1Clement, all of those with gospel material. If you add them up, that would give a high ratio of texts with gospel material. There is even more, considering some epistles such as Titus, 2Peter, 2John & 3John might have been written as late as 130. At about that time, Papias, Aristides, Quadratus, Marcion, Basilides and Valentinus showed gospel material or knowledge in their writings.
Then around 140-160, the epistle of apostles, Ignatian letters, Ptolemy and Justin Martyr also showed knowledge of gospels.

Lk22:19b-20 is likely a later insertion because:
a) it is lacking in Codex Bezae & some early Latin translations. And in other early manuscripts, sequence of the three clauses is changed in 22:17-20 (wine, bread, wine), sometimes differently.
b) it duplicates the cup offering.
c) it suggests 'Jesus died for your sins', but this concept never appears again in GLuke/'Acts'.
d) it copies from 1Co11:24-25, with words like "new covenant", "for you", "do this in remembrance of me", not appearing in GMark & GMatthew's versions of the Last Supper.

I highlighted the phrase that is a WORD-FOR-WORD copy of gLuke's Jesus.

"THIS DO IN REMEMBRANCE OF ME".

It is most remarkable that you refuse to accept ACTUAL evidence of antiquity.

These are NOT ALLUSIONS like those presented by Bernard Muller. The Pauline writer QUOTED words of gLuke's Jesus.

Luke 22:19 KJV
Quote:
And he took bread, and gave thanks , and brake it, and gave unto them, saying , This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
1 Corinthians 11:24 KJV
Quote:
And when he had given thanks , he brake it, and said , Take , eat : this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Only gLuke's Jesus supposedly said this do in remembrance of me at the Last Supper.
