In a book, though I can locate no primary source for the claim.

Jeffrey Gibson

Which book? And what claim is actually made there?

The claim made is that Isu Chrestos was the name of the deity used in the Marcionite version of the Pauline epistles.

Jeffery, Ben,
A quick OT, if you don't mind.

To your knowledge, did Justin ever accuse Marcion of tampering with the scriptures?

Jeffrey Gibson

This is not a book.

To my knowledge, the wall of a synagogue (?) is not a MS witness to the text of the NT, let alone a translation of a MS witness.


Now lets see some evidence that the claim above is true.

Umm, it is a url to where you can purchase the book...

I stated that I could not corroborate the claim, re: the Syrian archeological find.

Have you heard of such a find?

Jeffrey Gibson

It appears not, at least not directly.

See here for Justin's references to Marcion.

Why do you ask?

Jeffrey

[quote=dog-on;5739271]It contains a URL to a site where one can purchase a book on Marcion that is edited by an apparent crank and is published by a vanity press.

No. But that does not mean a thing. But why would followers of the rabidly ant-Jewish Marcion have a synagogue??

Thanks Jeffrey. I was just trying to verify that fact. I appreciate your help.

Good question! Maybe that is what the author decided to call it, as I doubt it had a sign saying "Marcion's Synagogue and Heretical Emporium" enscribed on the entrance...
