Why can't Christians Verify Exactly Where Jesus Was Buried?

[Firefighter01]

You really are unbelievably dumb. Even by your own citation, only the Pentateuch is in existence that early. And we know what we have today was modified substantially by Origen in the third century AD, and since the Hexapla no longer exists we don't know how much he modified, but we do know he modified it substantially. Almost every manuscript in existence today that contains "the LXX" contains a copy of the fifth column of the Hexapla and not a copy of what existed before it. And those that don't have Origen's recensions they are late manuscripts and incomplete.

Not as dumb as you, my friend. According to Britannica.com, "Analysis of the language has established that the Torah, or Pentateuch (the first five books of the Old Testament), was translated near the middle of the 3rd century bce and that the rest of the Old Testament was translated in the 2nd century bce."
You are referring to a revision of copyist errors by Origin

and it was the bible that Jesus and his disciples used http://www.biblestudytools.com/bible-stu...38841.html
So what I am saying is that the composition of the SOTM was based on an understanding of the LXX

It is my understanding that the entire reason for the assembling of the SOTM was to provide instructions on how to recover from the destruction of the temple (which is well after the Jesus stories, as you would know). It's lovely for Christians and people like yourself to imagine that Jesus gave this perfect speech at the top of his lungs to the multitudes while memory experts took in every word, but common sense tells you that it would have been extremely improbable. But you are convinced it was a great historical event, what more can I say?
