There is no cliff mentioned in scripture regarding this incident. It is inferred.

Where? When you start letting inferences go, then suddenly you begin having a living document.

The greek word does not state that it was "head first".

My error. It is headlong. But still means head before the rest of the body. Please give me the Greek word.

It depends on their own location and the time of observation. The descriptions here are not mutually exclusive. They can be and have been logically reconciled.

Again, it's not what scripture says. Again,

Again, it's not what scripture says. Again,

If your intention is to disparage the witness of scripture, then I suppose no one can stop you. If your intention is to seek the truth, then you can see that there is no irreconcilable contradiction. It can be explained. I suppose it depends upon your prejudices as to whether or not you are able to see a contradiction or a reconciliation. I can reconcile it without any difficulty. Some other passages are not as easily reconciled, but are reconcilable nonetheless.

Have you started that thread?
