No, I said that his writing of the gospel was proof.
What you said in post 68, after commenting on my level of literacy is:
The original Gospel of Mathew written in his native tongue made it plain that he was a cohen
This claim, that if one consults the original Gospel written in Matthew’s native tongue, one will be led to the plain conclusion that he was a Cohen, is the one that I want to see backed up, and it is a much stronger claim than the claim of post 92.
I have personally poured much study into a copy of the gospel in the native tongue and never reached that conclusion. Of course it is entirely possible that my Hebrew/Aramaic is poor enough that I miss much that is obvious. It is also possible that the textual tradition to which I am heir is flawed. I’m happy to remedy either of the problems, especially with regards to a few key verses if key verses can be pointed out.
Your arguments from 92 would better serve to “prove” that the author of Hebrews (who I hold, with tradition is Paul) is a Cohen
Basically, in 68 you claimed the equivalent of a full house and in 92 you backed off to two pairs. If all you have is your assertions in 92, you serve to bolster the case that not every “expert” in scripture should be read because many make unwarranted—and false-claims that can mislead the unwary.

Your posting is incredibly stubborn and dense.
No one could possibly demonstrate the degree of understanding shown in the Hebrew Gospel of Matthew without the level of study of Torah that was thrust upon the Cohenim.
Enough of your childish game of tag.

No, Paul was a self confessed Pharisee, which compares to a Cohen in education, but is, like the catholic church, directed to ward the false authority of men, rather than that of Yehova.
But Hebrews, like the gospel of Matthew, demonstrates that Yeshua’s Gospel was that of Moses before him.
Yeshua was indeed “That Prophet” called for in Deuteronomy, presenting the same faith that Moses did.
