“The Jews don’t accept the NT as inspired.”

And apparently Isaiah 53.

“The Jews don’t accept the NT as inspired.” And apparently Isaiah 53.

Yes, however, as said, unlike the many for Christ, the NT nowhere interprets the claimed typologies of Mary as being just that.

And as in re. to prophecies and types as Is. 53 provides, in the only wholly inspired-of-God and substantive record of what the New Testament church believed you never see anything like,

And he arose and went: and, behold, a man of Ethiopia, an eunuch of great authority under Candace queen of the Ethiopians, who had the charge of all her treasure, and had come to Jerusalem for to worship, Was returning, and sitting in his chariot read Esaias the prophet. (Acts 8:27-28)

Then the Spirit said unto Philip, Go near, and join thyself to this chariot. And Philip ran thither to him, and heard him read the prophet Esaias, and said, Understandest thou what thou readest? And he said, How can I, except some man should guide me? And he desired Philip that he would come up and sit with him. The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: In his humiliation his judgment was taken away: and who shall declare his generation? for his life is taken from the earth. And the eunuch answered Philip, and said, I pray thee, of whom speaketh the prophet this? of himself, or of some other man? (Acts 8:29-34)

Then Philip opened his mouth, and began at the same scripture, and preached unto him Jesus. (Acts 8:35)

But if deacon Philip was a Catholic, we could expect him to begin at some scripture and preached unto him Mary.
