No, I'm speaking about some other teacher, scholar, author, organization, church, authority, faith community or fellowship who have the same doctrines you do.

That is, unless you've "come upon" these views and are attempting to propagate them all by yourself, which you surely have a right to. This is America. Do your thing.

"Nice try by a propagandist... Clickable links to the entire Bible?... I realize that you don’t respect it..."

This insolent tone: is it part of your evangelization technique?

I'd guess it's not that effective, really. It makes people feel you're giving them the verbal finger.

My advice would be to hit "delete", not "send", when you find you're tending to indulge in personal digs. I fight similar temptations. I delete, daily. Probably not enough.

I am aware that you want your false doctrine adhered to.

I can only accept what the word actually says plainly.

If doctrine is required to “interpret” scriptures, it is just the work of the adversary.

The original words of the Cohen Matthew, in his native language must prevail over inept translations by outsiders to the Hebrew culture, especially when such fumbling produces gibberish.

And where can I find "the original words of the Cohen Matthew, in his native language"?

If not an Amazon.com link, could you at least give me the name of a publisher?

What does a gal have to do to get more information?

You will not find a text on line, but here is Howard’s Shem Tov for sale at Amazon.

https://www.amazon.com/HEBREW-GOSPEL-MATTHEW-George-Howard/dp/0865549893

There obviously are copyright issues that are presently preventing the posting of an English translation of any of the 28 presently located copies of the original Hebrew. (these 28 lines are essentially in agreement; there is one more with slight variations that has not been translated to English.)

Scholarly volumes are always carefully guarded, and legitimate postable texts do not presently exist, as far as I can determine.

Please note the difference in price between this soft cover, and the hard cover version. (extreme)

FYI...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbinical_translations_of_Matthew#Christian_Hebrew_versions

"The Rabbinical translations of Matthew are rabbinical versions of the Gospel of Matthew that are written in Hebrew; Shem-Tob's Matthew, the Du Tillet Matthew, and the Münster Matthew, and which were used in polemical debate with Catholics."

"These versions are to be distinguished from the Gospel According to the Hebrews which was one or more works found in the Early Church, but surviving only as fragmentary quotations in Greek and Latin texts."

"Some scholars consider all the rabbinical versions to be translated from the Greek or Latin of the canonical Matthew, for the purpose of Jewish apologetics. This conclusion is not exclusive. Other scholars have provided linguistic and historic evidence of Shem Tov's Matthew coming from a much earlier Hebrew text that was later translated into Greek and other languages. Early Christian author Papias wrote around the year 100: Matthew composed his history in the Hebrew dialect, and everyone translated it as he was able."

Howard is mentioned several places in the wiki article.

George Howard, Associate Professor of Religion and Hebrew at the University of Georgia has argued (1995) that some or all of these three medieval Hebrew versions may have descended (without any intervening translation) from ancient Hebrew manuscripts of Matthew, which may have been used by early Christians in the 1st or 2nd century, but were nearly extinct by the time of Jerome, late in the 4th century.

I don't know anything about Hebrew apocryphal writings, nor their redactions of the Gospels, nor have I the time or interest to get deep into the controversies, which I wouldn't have the competence to judge anyhow (I don't read Hebrew or Greek.)

My (one-glance) impression is that such versions are interesting to specialists from a scholarly point of view (particularly the history of medieval Christian-Jewish polemics); but they should not be used by Christians for devotional or liturgical purposes, because they were not and are not used by the Church.

Is this, in your opinion, a fair impression?

Its not what I call it, but what Yeshua’s apostles and his first and second century sheep called it.

The Notzerim; followers of the teaching and life of the Notzer (the shoot from the root of Jessie)
