I still believe that knowing his mission involved ultimate Crucifixion, he would not have married. Would be too cruel a thing to put your spouse through.

I don't have an opinion on it one way of the other. I lean, however, to the school of thought which claims he did. Otherwise, how would the only begotten Son of God have a thorough understanding of man's temptations of the flesh?

In either case, it no way diminishes who he was.

Since Jesus was a coo on name, I am sure some one named Jesus had a wife.

My Lord and Savior, Jesus of Nazareth did not

Is there any new evidence the moon landing was faked?

Headline phrased as a question. That is one of the things I hate about MSN.com. Every third article is headlined by a question. If they have to ask a question, they don’t know anything, so it is useless to read. Same as this: After over 2000 years, pretty much every shred of evidence of anything has already been found.

Of course the Christian’s deified rabbi had a wife! If he followed the Torah in letter and Spirit he certainly was. Of course, I’ll get flack about it, but here are the commandments.
(Keep in mind that Jewish men are supposed to get married per God, but rabbis doubly so because they set the example.)

Two times God says to go forth and multiply.
Genesis 1:28 and 9:7 (have children)

God officiated Adam and Eve’s marriage. Genesis 2:24

Then take a look at Deuteronomy, chapter 24:1-5.

Marry childless brother’s widow (even if you are already married. This is known as ‘yibum.’). Deuteronomy 25:5

If a man (or woman) refuses to marry his brother’s widow then he must perform the commandment called ‘chalitzah’ in order to free her from the required marriage and allow her to marry someone else. Deuteronomy 25:7-10

The rapist must marry the maiden (if she chooses to do so). Deuteronomy 22:29

The slanderer must remain married to the wife he slandered and not allowed to divorce her. Deuteronomy 22:19

Not to marry a woman and her daughter, or her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter. Leviticus 18:17

Not to marry non-Jews. Deuteronomy 7:3

Not to let Moabite and Ammonite males marry into the Jewish people. Deuteronomy 23:4 (Doesn’t really apply any more since Moabites and Ammonites don’t exist now.)

Don’t keep a third generation Egyptian convert from marrying into the Jewish people. Deuteronomy 23:8-9

Not to refrain from marrying a third generation Edomite convert. Deuteronomy 23:8-9 (Doesn’t really apply since there are no more third generation Edomites around.)

Not to let a bastard marry into the Jewish people. Deuteronomy 23:3

Not to let a eunuch marry into the Jewish people. Deuteronomy 23:2

The high priest (cohen) must not marry a widow. Leviticus 21:14

The high priest (cohen) must marry a virgin maiden. Leviticus 21:13

A high priest (cohen) must not marry a divorcee. Leviticus 21:7

A cohen must not marry a zonah (a woman who had forbidden relations) or a chalalah Leviticus 21:7

So either the Christian’s defied rabbi and Paul/Saul are either a card-carrying Jews who followed Torah to the letter as well as in Spirit, or what is written in the Christian’s New Testament is a lie or a mis-translation.
Also, take a look at this article and see what you think.

An observant Jew of that day would be likely to follow the instruction to go forth and multiply; to do so without sin would require a wife, wouldn’t it? Yet other than a mysterious reference to a “beloved disciple” there is no mention of a spouse.

If we ask, He will tell us, later.

small basket olives
bunch grapes
pomegranate
crock honey

jar wine

It's a freakin' grocery list!

God with us had no need of a flesh physical woman. This would be very much akin to incest. He show us who and what is the greatest temptation. And even after fasting for 40 days and 40 nights, Christ was not tempted. Wonder how many will be able to follow Christ? Flesh bodies would not survive 40 days of fasting, but, in Christ any and all can resist the fiery darts of the want-a-be Jesus.

We were instructed by Paul to avoid foolish controversy and stupid speculations. This is one of them. End of discussion

Part of the reason the Four Gospels Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were written was because false gospels were going out and the record had to be set straight.

Many of these false Gospels seem to come from the same source and usually only one copy. Whereas there are numerous copies of the Four Gospels and they corroborate one another like in a courtroom.

In court you count on the first hand witnesses to avoid hearsay. Sound like this document is more hearsay.

It don’t make me any difference if Jesus had a wife or not but the religious scholars has to keep the money flowing into their bank accounts just like every one else so there is no don`t doubt we will keep on hearing this drivel.

If you believe this might be true you do not really believe the Bible.

Yes, the claims are absurd, but for most people it’s enough to muddy the waters, and just in time for Easter family get-together. Thanks MSM.

Aaaaaaaand just in time for Easter - a little media tradition we’ve all come to know and love - it’s time for the annual “The Gospels Were Wrong About Jesus” story! Gotta hand it to them, they’re consistent.

No, No and NO. These people who keep saying this is trying to do everything it can to attempt to discredit our LORD. Simple, they never will, never can, and will answer to Him at the Great White Throne if they do not repent their hate filled sin.
