he was the son of a carpenter
"is not this the carpenter's son" and so on

>>4060824
where are you getting that notion from?
though I don't expect Galileans were that cultured in comparison to Rome, it's a misconception that illiteracy was so rampant in antiquity

Whoever wrote the Book of Job and/or whoever wrote the Ecclesiate. Or Chretien de Troyes (converted Jewish) or Kafka.

>he was the son of a carpenter

That doesn't mean anything. You're assuming that reading and writing wasn't available to people from working families, but given the emphasis of Hebrew culture on reading and education that's dubious. Jesus very likely studied the Torah and the Talmud, which generally entails reading and sometimes even writing.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 26 09:59:41 2013 No.4061071 >>4061065 He was probably illiterate. Just because the Gospels says he read the Talmud every sunday or whatever doesn't really mean anything. They were probably lying.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 26 10:01:41 2013 No.4061078 >>4061071 >He was probably illiterate. No, unlikely. Again, he was from a religious Jewish family. Illiteracy might have been the norm on average for the whole Roman Empire at the time, but certainly not for religious Jews.

>>	Anonymous Mon Aug 26 10:04:42 2013 No.4061086 >>4061078 This. The 'muh Scriptures are lying' posture expressed here >>4061071 prevents us to taking in account the state of culture among people in Galilea at that time.
