Bible Question:
Chris, Re: an old posting of yours..."chronological events of Resurrection Day".....Did you ever try to assimilate all four gospels' accounts into a chronological package....it's maddening. They cannot be reconciled.....this really goes against the theory that every word of the NT is inspired by the Holy Spirit. What's your take? Bub |
Bible Answer: Bub, perhaps a chart would help you in your efforts to weave the four Gospels into a unified and chronogically ordered whole and cause your search to be less 'maddening.' Many reference Bibles and study Bibles contain such a chronogically ordered chart, usually called 'Harmony of the Gospels.' It would be well worth your while to avail yourself of this resource. I believe that in the wake of long, careful and thoughtful study you may want to change your statement that the Gospel accounts cannot be seen to be in harmony. [You used the word 'reconciled' but it really is not applicable in this instance, since 'to reconcile' means to restore to harmony, and the Gospels, being already harmonious, need no restoration.] --Hank |
