RE: Interpreting Mark 15:34--'eloi 'eloi lama sabachthani

Minimalist has given you the key to the interpretation I suggest that you follow where she points on this one. Psalm 22

I would also suggest you take the following advise
"Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces."
Matthew 7:6

and have a thought about the forum you are on as to the level of discussion you are likely to get on the topic you post.
there are lots of forums where you may get the discussion I think you want.

now to throw a bone to the wolves and wait for the howls- who knows maybe even one of the readers of this forum may read psalm 22 and see the real significance of the last words and God may move their heart and work another small miracle and we can have more joy in heaven.

"I tell you that in the same way, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance."
Luke 15:7

and it wouldn't have happened without minimalists help . ( just teasing :-) )

You'd better read Doherty's The Jesus Puzzle before you go thanking me.

This seems even more bullshit, so anyone reading better starts here.

There was a built in joke "might" but in reality I have a limited amount of time and an infinite amount of material I could research so I tend to read what I decide I want to read based on what is the primary concern or interest I have at the time and not what everyone else would have me read. Maybe that makes me abnormal I don't know. I aslo didn't expect for a moment minimalist would spend much time on that site even if she were to click the link. Though saying that I was impressed by how quickly she threw in the Psalm 22 and I guess she is probably better read than me on the topic areas that seem to be prevalent here.

Is minimalist a woman? I am now officially in love with a female internet-account.

Wait a moment...I'll check.


Nope.

Not only are you a woman, Min, but apparently you are a teenage rebel as well. Then again, since these facts have only been revealed to us by some of those among us with (shall we say) a decidedly interesting interpretation of reality, such revelations are not only to be expected, they offer a revealing insight into the accuracy of some of their other facts as well.
