A Weblog Dedicated to the Discussion of the Christian Faith and 21st Century Life
A Weblog Dedicated to the Discussion of the Christian Faith and 21st Century Life ___ I do not seek to understand that I may believe, but I believe in order to understand. For this also I believe, –that unless I believed, I should not understand.-- St. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109)

Excellent presentation.
My childhood church tradition wasn't "pseudo Marcionite", but, it never explored the unity of the biblical narrative like this.
Lately, I've been blessed to have a preacher that does and I was delighted to see the Job 9 allusions to Yahweh "walking on the sea" as well as Jeremiah's oracle from Yahweh about the Jews "making My house a den of robbers".
It is stuff like this that demonstrates the uniquely Jewish ANE "allusion technique" for presenting data that causes modern western critics to think Jesus didn't claim to be Yahweh or Messiah because He didn't present Himself as a westerner from Kansas or Paris would have.
