You have a very disrespectful and mocking attitude. That’s not Christ-like. You need to repent.

Anabaptists were some of the Protestant Reformers, and they accepted the Apocryphal books. Martin Luther said that 1 Maccabees is worthy to be placed among holy scripture.

The author of Hebrews insinuated that the tortured men is biblical history. I’ve ALWAYS gotten the impression that the writer of Hebrews was saying that it’s in the Bible, even though for the longest time I didn’t know it was talking about Maccabees. It was quite a mystery to me until I read 2...

It’s getting pretty redundant, isn’t it? Ergo.

But who exactly is the older son? Who is Jesus referring to?

You made it sound like all Christians everywhere rejected them as holy scripture in the 4th century. Use your words more wisely, because that’s the impression you gave.

“For Sadducees say that there is no resurrection—and no angel or spirit; but the Pharisees confess both.” -Acts 23:8 - Bible Gateway passage: Acts 23:8 - New King James Version

But what about the differences in Genesis 11?

So you have no comment on whether the flood was 4,400 years ago or 5,000 years ago?

I showed the mistake. You just prefer to put blinders on and pretend it doesn’t exist, just like you pretend that the Septuagint doesn’t exist.

You say the KJV is perfect. But when I show that the KJV has one of the mistakes from the Septuagint, you just say, “Well it’s perfect even though I can’t explain the mistake.” And Origen didn’t live in the days of Ptolemy II. Origen has nothing to do with the origin of the Septuagint.
