A New Chapter Of The Bible Was Found Hidden Inside 1,750-Year-Old Text
Preserved in an ancient Syriac manuscript, the chapter challenges long-held assumptions about biblical texts and their seemingly static nature…
Hidden for centuries, a forgotten chapter of the Bible has emerged from the shadows of history. Researchers, armed with ultraviolet light and meticulous scholarship, have uncovered a 1,750-year-old text that offers a fresh glimpse into the evolving nature of scripture. This find isn’t just a historical curiosity; it’s a profound insight into how faith and tradition were shaped in early Christianity.
The newly unveiled chapter offers an expanded version of Matthew 12, a passage where Jesus and his disciples are criticized for picking grain on the Sabbath. In this version, subtle textual variations bring fresh theological nuances to light, emphasizing compassion and mercy over rigid observance of religious laws. While the core message aligns with established teachings, these differences hint at the dynamic and adaptive nature of early Christian scripture.

Be still my heart! Please tell me it reaffirms the status of the “Chosen People”.
Strider…You are a Bible believing Christian…Right ?
Does it not say God ( Your God ..Yahweh) considered the Israelites His Chosen People ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jews_as_the_chosen_people
I do not know one Jewish person who considerers themselves “chosen”
In fact considering people ( like you ) who hate that term and use it as a vehicle for Hate….we wish he would have chosen YOU instead !
sheesh
God The Father! Would you admire a father who, among his children, selected one above all others, allowing him to kill and main who ever he wished? That ain’t my God. My God says we are all his children, made in his image and likeness. He taught us to love our neighbour as we love ourselves! The Old Testament was written by Jews for the benefit of Jews! Surprisingly, they found that Jews were the chosen people.
Jesus was a Jew right ?
Do Christians reject the old testament .?
I thought they embraced it as the foundation ?
Am I wrong ?
So Jews ( a group of people who lived over 5 thousand years ago in caves in a dessert) wrote the “Bible” and you are still upset because they wrote themselves in as the favorites >>?
Thats about it right ?
Can you not let all that go ?
it was 5 thousand years ago for Christ’s sake (oops)
They were basically nethananderthals …they have Zero connection to those today who are considered “jewish”
And while we are at it
Who wrote the New Testament ?
Those guys were Jews too …No ?
and “He taught us to love our neighbour as we love ourselves” except for the Jews …right ?
I am not upset about anything in the Old Testament. I consider it to be tales written for illiterate people. I’m upset that Jews, with the benefit of American armaments, are committing genocide against people whose ancestor’s have lived peacefully alongside them for thousands of years. They haven’t the right to do that, and they haven’t the exclusive right to that land. They didn’t have that right until 1948, and most of the world believes they don’t have it now.
If Jewish people don’t consider themselves the chosen people, how do they figure that God countenances them taking land as their own that they haven’t controlled for almost two thousand years until the Americans and the British, through the UN, decided to place them on it, thereby displacing the Palestinians?
I don’t know the whole story but part of it is that The UN controlled that god forsaken piece of land in the Dessert and There were Jews and Arabs already living there ( a meager exhistance) and the British and Americans and UN being the Rulers of that land “Gave” it to the Jews who had been displaced from their lands in Europe
Many wanted to go to the US and Canada and they were put on Boats towards that end but Rejected and sent away…all the while Canada as we have recently discovered accepted Nazis
You live in Vancouver Right ?
From whom did you get the land you live on ?
A mere 200 years ago it was “owned” by a band of indigenous people who in turn “stole it” from the previous indiginous people
The owners at the time of European Migration never gave their land to the Europeons who just came and took it from them…boohoo..Thats how civilization works ..
EVERY LAND in the world today was once owned by a long since “conquered” society or civilization.
The beat goes on.
Ask the people in the Donbas
3 years ago they were Ukranians and now they are Russians because the Russians conquered their lands
“They didn’t have that right until 1948, and most of the world believes they don’t have it now.”
International recognition of Israel

“genocide against people whose ancestor’s have lived peacefully alongside them for thousands of years”
Like on October 6 2023 ?
I have posted this short history of the Nation of Israel a couple of times Strider…you would do well i think to have a look at it. It details the number of times The Israelis have persued peace with the Palestinians …it’s 10 minutes and full of information you are not aware of

Also did you know that about 25% of the population of israel is Arab muslim ?
Most of the Europeans who came to Israel weren’t victims of oppression. They all came after the war, and they came for religious and communal reasons, at the call of Zionists in Israel. Their properties in Europe weren’t stolen. They were sold by the owners, or they were kept. As well, many African Jews were called, as were Russian Jews. Add to these the many Jews in North America who felt the need to reinforce the “Jewish Homeland”. This is what people mean when they talk of a “settler society”. These weren’t inhabitants of the land. The inhabitants of the land were dispossessed, in many cases, by settlers from the countries.
Your argument about Europeans settling in North America is disingenuous. The long history of humanity has societal victims and victors. It has mostly to do with superior technologies, if I can say that about gun powder and guns and such, and superior numbers. Of course, the victors ascribed to themselves superior human characteristics and superior gods. I would say this later condition is fully embraced in Israel today. Evidence is rife that no such characteristics or gods exist in Israel today, yet they are subtly put forth as reasons condoning collective atrocity.
You didnt answer my question about the Land YOU live on…It was Brutally “Stolen” from the previous Owner ( some now obscure “Indian” Tribe ) that were murdered and disposed of so YOU counld settle there and call it YOUR home …at least until the Chinese come and pillage YOU
How do you reconcile that ?
WE ARE DONE NOW UNTIL YOU WATCH THIS AND COMMENT…10 MINUTES…IT WON’T KILL YOU I PROMISE BUT IT WILL OPEN YOUR THIRD EYE IMHO

Are you really trying to justify the Jews brutally murdering the Palestinians, and stealing their land?
Are you really trying to Justify Palesitinians Brutally Murdering and raping Jewish people in their homes and at a Festival Oct 6 2023 ?
Are you really trying to justify Europeons in the 18th Century murdering and stealing the Land from the Indiginous Population in what is now called Vancouver BC ?
Did you really watch that 10 minute video hat explains the whole history of the region ?
Are you really so hateful of Jews that you believe they think they are the chosen because their “ancestors” said so in a Bible written 10 thousand years ago ?
It’s obvious you are an Anti semitic person Strider…you are not even trying to hide it
Fully, you know I have respect for you. You must also know, that despite my strong opinions, I bear no ill will toward any particular people or culture. I’ve been disappointed by some of your comments recently, with regard to Tenter’s opinions concerning the longstanding conflicts between Israel and its neighbours. Most westerners have grown up in an environment of pro- Israel propaganda. I grew up in it too, and for most of my life I believed that propaganda. I was late in coming to an obvious reality. Israel is not some poor group of peaceful, religious people trying against all odds to get along with its neighbours, and survive. Israel is a rapacious, insistent, aggressive upstart in a relatively benign neighbourhood of backward, tribal peoples. Israel itself is a tribal people. The relatively small community of Jews in that neighbourhood existed amicably among Muslims and Christians, seemingly forever. Then Westerners decided to rearrange things.
I won’t go on, because It’s getting late; so late that I will pretend I haven’t read the diminishment of an active, mostly respected, poster on this site.
