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

RE: Interpreting Mark 15:34--'eloi 'eloi lama sabachthani
(December 28, 2011 at 6:01 am)Barre Wrote: Mark portrays Jesus as a failed messianic pretender who nevertheless was regarded as a uiou theou by the centurion in charge of the crucifixion, thereby providing the dramatic conclusion of gMark and the "proper" assessment of Jesus according to the author of gMark. It is also noteworthy that the author presents a high view as being spoken by a Roman, a centurion, Jesus' own executioner.

The question of debate: Does Mark 15:34 probably contain the words of a historical Jesus?


This statement is no more qualified for review than this one out of Exodus: So Moses thought, "I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up." When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, "Moses! Moses!"


Yeah ... I also don't spend time contemplating the legitimacy of the stories of Hans Christian Anderson, The Brother's Grimm or Mother Goose either.
