It’s been a long time since I read any scholarly discourse on the issue.
I’m satisfied in my own heart, spirit and mind from my own reading of Scripture as well as those scholarly inputs years ago.
Others are welcome to offer scholarly proofs for some RC’s to dance around and desperately rationalize away if they wish. Not my priority.
Thanks for your bother, however.
No need for scholarly discourse, a simple Google search. Philo said there is no word, give the word or what he says remains fact.
And at least, show where “Blood Brother” is used because whether it is my sister (stepsister) or my nephew’s brother (half brother) we use the simplistic form.
If Our Lord wanted “Blood Brother” to be evident, it would be there. Where is it?
>>So if you disagree Quix, can you give the Koine word for “Blood Brother”?
If one cannot, then one is disagreeing with fact. That borders on delusional.<<
