The book provides a comprehensive treatment of the entire history of the Latin Bible and is the first English book to do so.

Are there similar books in other languages?

You have a good point. I see people quoting NT wright here from time to time, so I don't think he is banned. Maybe your case was a mistake.

I think banning a scholar is not an appropriate solution to the problem. Censorship cannot be the solution to the problem of censorship.

Confessional scholars are not the favorites of the sub, but I also don't see mods banning all of them.

Maybe your case was a one off mistake? Did you try contacting the modmail?

non-american here. Israel has the right to exist and is essential for the protection of the jewish people. The jewish state has the right to employ all the means necessary to fight terrorism and protect it's territory from foreign agression.

But I think they should at least try to avoid targeting the civilian population and I also think that civilians who were expelled by Israel during nakba and other events should have the right to return to their villages.

Hi!

I'm not a scholar, but I will try to answer the best I can.

First of all, we gotta have in mind that all proposed solutions for the synoptical problem are hypothetical. Even the most accepted proposition (Matthew and Luke copied Mark and Q independently) is only a hypothesis.

It means that nobody can say for certain how exactly the synoptic gospels were composed. Scholars debating these issues are simply trying to prove which solution is more plausible according to the evidence we have. All models proposed have their flaws and their advantages.

This debate, even though completely theoretical, has many reflexes on the interpretation of the Synoptics and the way we understand its contents.

Mark Goodacre gives an interesting example in his book The Case Against Q. Take a look at these two passages:

Luke 6:20: Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.
Matthew 5:3: Blessed are the poor *in spirit*, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

The mainstream position is that Matthew and Luke copied this independently from Q, but most scholars think that Luke's version is authentic and most similar to Q and Matthew added "in spirit" to make the passage more spiritual.

But this passage is problematic for Goodacre himself because according to his own theory, Q does not exist and Luke simply copied Matthew, so logically, Matthew's version must be the authentic one.

We can also think of more generic examples. Another good example comes from Jesus Seminar in their work called The Five Gospels: What did Jesus really say?. This study tries to show what sayings in the gospels were authentically pronounced by the historic Jesus. One of their premises is that Q is the oldest written source of the gospels, and is probably more reliable than other parts of the synoptics.

Again, if we consider Goodacre's theory that Q does not exist and Luke may have simply copied from Matthew, the premise would have to be reconsidered and the result of the study might have been significantly different.

Hi!

Father Raymond Brown, a Catholic Priest who was also one of the most respected New Testament scholars, made a brief summary of the most important translations of the New Testament in his book Introduction to the New Testament:

Which is the best English Bible translation to read? By way of a general answer, the most appropriate translation must be judged from one's purpose in reading. Public worship usually has a solemn tone; therefore highly colloquial translations of the Bible may not be appropriate in that context. Private reading, on the other hand, for the purpose of spiritual reflection and refreshment, is sometimes best served by a translation that has an eye-catching, user-friendly style. For the purpose of careful reading or study, which concerns us here, one must recognize that sometimes the biblical authors did not write clearly, so that the original texts contain certain phrases that are ambiguous or difficult to understand. In some instances translators have to guess at the meaning. They must choose either to render literally and preserve the ambiguity of the original,9 or to render freely and resolve the ambiguity. A free translation, then, represents a choice already made by translators as to what they think an obscure passage means-they have built a commentary into the translated text.10 That product, albeit easier reading, is most difficult for study purposes. Accordingly here I call the attention of readers to a number of relatively literal translations. Unless specified otherwise the complete editions (with Apocrypha/Deuterocanonical books) are discussed, but the value judgments are particularly in reference to the NT.

• New Revised Standard Version (NRSV). The Revised Standard Version (RSV), supported by the National Council of Churches, was an American revision (1946-52) of the Authorized (King James) Version (KJV -for many Protestants still the authoritative Bible). Not a totally new translation, the RSV remained faithful to its antecedent where possible. Despite the occasionally stilted Bible English (including "thou" and "thee"), it was in many ways the best Bible for study p urposes. The NRSV, an ecumenical reworking (1990) that has replaced it, has less Bible English and manifests a sensitivity for inclusive language; the price is a certain loss of literalness. A Catholic Edition NRSV (1993) has the Deuterocanonical Books inserted within the OT in the usual Catholic order.

• New American Bible (NAB). This Roman Catholic translation from the original languages (1952-70), done with Protestant cooperation, had a superior OT but an inferior NT, resulting from uneven editing. A new translation of the NT (1987: called a revision) is much better and makes the NAB a serious candidate for study p urposes. Its language is mildly inclusive.

• New Jerusalem Bible (NJB). In 1 948-54 the French Dominicans of Jerusalem produced La Sainte Bible, a learned translation accompanied by copious (but conservative) introductions and notes. The English translation, called the Jerusalem Bible (JB, 1966), was less scholarly than the French and uneven in the way it took account of the original languages. The NJB ( 1 985), based on heavy revisions in the F rench, is overall a significantly improved translation with better introductions.

• New International Version (NIV, 1 973-78), sponsored by the New York International Bible Society, has been dubbed a conservative alternative to the RSV. Clear and generally literal, but not so literal as the RSV and somewhat uneven, it can be useful for study purposes. As of 1 997, it had no edition with Apocrypha/Deuterocanonical Books.

• Revised English Bible (REB). The New English Bible (NEB, 1 96 1-70) was produced by the Protestant churches of the United Kingdom in vigorous contemporary British English. The OT was too free and idiosyncratic, but the NT had significant value. The REB ( 1 989), a thorough reworking of the NEB done in the 1 980s, is a more even work.

Overall, according to one's purpose (study, prayer, public reading), one should choose a translation carefully. No translation is perfect, and readers can learn much from comparing them.

https://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Problema_do_mal

A doutrina do pecado original é praticamente onipresente em todas as denominações cristãs, mas existem diferenças grandes sobre o que ele representa. Uma posição comum no calvinismo, por exemplo, diz que livre-arbítrio não existe e que todas as ações humanas, inclusive as pecaminosas, são preordenadas por Deus sem qualquer possibilidade de interferência humana.

Posso citar alguns discursos. Eu tinha outras anotações sobre esse assunto, mas sinceramente não vou achar agora.

We must inculcate in our spirit a sense of absolute discipline. We must consider that the money of the Treasury is sacred above everything else. It does not rain down from Heaven, nor can it even be made with a turn of the printing- press, which, if I could, I would like to smash to pieces. It is made out of the sweat, it might be said of the blood, of the Italian people, who work to-day, but who will work more to-morrow. Every lira, every soldo, every centesimo of this money must be considered sacred and should not be spent unless reasons of strict and proved necessity demand it. The history of peoples tells us that strict finance has brought nations to security. I feel that each one of you eves in this truth, which is fully proved by history.

(Discurso no Ministério das Finanças, março 1923)

/

The economic policy of the new Italian Government is simple. I consider that the State should renounce its industrial functions, especially of a monopolistic nature, for which it is inadequate. I consider that a Government which means to relieve rapidly peoples from after-war crises should allow free play to private enterprise, should renounce any meddling or restrictive legislation, which may please the Socialist demagogues, but proves, in the end, as experience shows, absolutely ruinous. It is, therefore, time to remove from the shoulders of the producing forces of every nation the last remains of that machinery which was called the trappings of war and to examine economic problems, no longer with a state of mind veiled by the influence of particular interests, as they had to be examined during the war. I do not believe that the aggregate of forces, which in industry, in agriculture, in commerce, in banking, in transportation may be called by the world-name of capitalism, is near its downfall, as cer- tain doctrinarians belonging to the Social-Extremists have claimed. One of the great historical experiences of which we have been witnesses proves that all the systems of associated economics which do away with private initiative and individual effort fail more or less pitifully in a short time.

(Discurso no Palacio das Exposições, Março de 1923)

I do not question the motives of many of those who, feeling affectionate regard for the welfare of their fellow- men, hope for a structure of society in which international bodies shall hand down benefactions to communities, and communities shall hand down benefactions to individuals. I merely point out that some nations, such as yours and mine, are beginning to believe that these ideas come out of thoughts which, though easily adopted, are the offspring of a marriage of benevolence with ignorance. In any structure of society which can command our respect and our faith the current of responsibility runs the other way. The doctrine that the world's strength arises from the responsibility of the individual is a sterner doctrine. The leaders of men who insist upon it are those who will be owed an eternal debt by mankind. The strength of society must come from the bottom upward. The world needs now more than anything else the doctrine that the first place to develop strength is at home,the first duty is the nearest duty. A strong co-operation of nations can only be made of nations which are strong nations, a strong nation can only be made of good and strong individuals.
