“You are attempting to obfuscate the Scripture.”

No. I am placing the verses in their context - SEVEN CHAPTERS OF CONTEXT - and showing that verse 11:24 was not defining verse 11:29.

It is bad hermeneutics to ignore the preceding 3 chapters and the following 3 chapters in defining what a term refers to in the center chapter.

Why does the context of 7 consecutive chapters disturb you?

Oooh, hermeneutics. This is that Protestant hocus-pocus which means that we cannot possibly read the scripture in front of our eyes and understand it unless a Protestant pastor 'splains it for us.

No, Sir, the "body which will be delivered for you" is not referring to the Church. Was it the Church (you prefer, I know, "assembly") hanging from the Cross?
