Hi,

What evidence is there that the authors of the Gospels made up stories based on Old Testament ones?

thanks,

Tons. I'd recommend starting off with Randel Helm's Gospel Fictions.

How do you interpret this? Luke 24:13-35

In particular:

Quote:

...27 And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself.

. . .

Jesus Appears to the Disciples

. . .

44 He said to them, "This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms."

45 Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures.

You might want to take a look at this previous thread:

Is there anything about Jesus not in the Hebrew Bible?

I've heard some people endorse that book. What do you guys think of Turkel's review of it here: http://www.tektonics.org/gk/helmsr01.html?

thanks,

Toto,

I don't know. The only thing that I don't understand is where Moses ever talked about Jesus?
