This is what I stated, it was in reply to your questions which you also omitted to confuse the situation.
I am not sure how you think it helps you but OK - if you feel you were mis-represented, fine. You are still claiming a young man to be an angel, which I find a ludicrous assumption.

What was he doing sitting besides a tomb in the morning?
How do we know that the young man and Joseph were not in league to steal the body?
How do we know it was even Joseph's tomb as he claimed?
An angel, answers your first question.
he rolled away the stone, answers your second question.
the angel knew Jesus was going to raise from the dead, no need to steal the body, answers your third question?
Just like a lot of human history, we assume it to be true, why, because there was no need to lie, answers your fourth question.
You manipulated my statement to make a joke of it, completely dishonest, you are shooting your reputation in the foot with the Christians here.
Well there you go with an angel again. Interesting that the son of God wasn't capable of rolling a stone on his own from the inside but there you go - thank heavens there was an Angel there, huh, and not just a stone rolling angel - but one that gives directions later on - wow!
Quote:By the way you need to study history before making yourself look real dumb, tombs of that period always had a large dip in the groove the stone sat in to keep people from rolling it away and robbing the tomb. Go roll a big rock into a ditch, then try rolling it out, careful though we wouldn't want you to injure your toes. No two men could have moved the stone in front of Jesus tomb.
Yeah well - that's me - dumb as pigshit. Thing is - I've been to the burial grounds around Jerusalem where all the tombs are - have you? There are some pretty ancient tombs there. Interestingly I don't recall seeing any with a circular stone in front.
But at least its good to know that you know that the stone couldn't be moved by even 2 people now. At least this fits in with ever larger stone theory I posited with regard to the gospels. The newest Gospel- the GC gospel has a huge stone, an angel, a ditch and guards? Do you have guards too in your version?

Quote:@ max-greece, Joseph of Arimathea was a respected member of the Council, Mark 15:43. He was a member of the Jewish priest, in Mark 14:53 we are told who makes up the Council.
A priest would not steal a dead body, it would be against what he perceived as right and just.

And who is he in each of the other gospels? Same? I think not.
