Nehemiah Gordor Karaite Jew

I'll mention what has been mentioned before. Why would you use as an authority for NT scriptures a man who does not believe Yeshua is Messiah?

.
Gordon himself does not consider himself an “authority” on the NT, but a scholar, and a beginning scholar at that.

But on the things which he has studied in depth, his work in unassailable, due to the completeness of his process.

There have never been any “great” NT scholars, just NT manipulators, mostly doubters, but I am confident that when he does set out to comment on the NT in detail, it will be the finest available.

Why not? I mean seriously, let's see your argument why an unbiased Karaite Jew wouldn't actually be the best choice for researching if the first texts of the New Testament were Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek.
