Pharicee or priest would adress him with being a rabbi. Rabbis must marry, just like Jewish priests.

I remember reading about this in Holy Blood, Holy Grail, years ago.
I read this, as a new release at the library, then had to buy a copy.
I find their argument of Jesus being married to be very believable.
I do not see why people have a problem with accepting it.
Paul does seem to have a certain antagonism towards the man, Jesus.
Paul seems to be a big fan of the Spirit Being, Jesus, in heaven.
Paul seems to be adverse to a lot of the sticky aspects of being human.
I guess Paul was celibate.
You notice what Paul does to show his respect to the Jewish religion?
He pays for the offerings require for these young men who were taking Nazarene vows.
Part of being Nazarene is being celibate.
With all the possible choices of things that Paul could have done to prove to the Jewish community that he still believed in the Law, why did he pick this law?

A nazarean is only in celibate during his education. When he has finished studying he might marry and have children. Normally such a person would be finished with his studies in five to ten years.

Why do people want to focus on just one thing that is condemned in the Bible. This is starting to sound like a broken record. It's not the people, it's the acts.



True.
But some cannot differenciate between the 2.




It's always funny to see your type. "It's not the people it's the acts" BS! Either you hate the guy for what he does or you accept it. And the Jewish God accepts homofilia with the sex and everything, except when it is done the way the Torah discribes it. To lay the layings of woman refers to a hethen custom involving men having public ritual sex with other men. In the towns where they held these rites they tried to rape angels, men, and they could rape these innocent people to death. Read the book it's all there. Just add a littlle contemporay knowledge and you see. The bible doesn't talk about homophilia at all, except for in the story of David and his male lover.

In Secret Mark a supposed cencored part of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus sleeps naked with Lazarus (also naked and just risen from the dead) just like a man would sleep with a woman.

On the previous page you set your own opinions above the teachings of an Apostle, whom you clearly disdain. Now you shamelessly blaspheme Christ himself. And you continue to proclaim yourself a Bible teacher.

Enough said. It's clear to all. Your teachings are not Christian.
