Also Jesus btw. Eg. Triumphant entry riding an rear end into town, is a satire of a Roman triumph.

I dunno about that but the author of Matthew mistranslated a prophecy and therefore wrote it as fulfilled by Jesus riding into town on two donkeys at the same time

My super religious southern sister-in-law took me aside at Disney World recently and started grousing about people she knows who take the Bible so literally, like “have they actually even read it? Have they seen the “two donkeys” bit? FFS”

A better way to think about authorship of the gospels is as oral traditions from communities written down as they are being destroyed by the Romans during the war. Also mark is the earliest stuff.

Check out 1Kings 1:38-40. David made Solomon king, then had him ride his donkey through Jerusalem to the acclamation of the crowd. This was the image Jesus was reproducing, which the people of Jerusalem recognized. It was a Jewish tradition before Rome even existed.

It can be both. I’ve seen both referred to in historical Jesus stuff.

The new testament is really interesting reading as someone raised as an Orthodox Jew.

Jesus was Jewish, as were all the populace he's taking to. And you get these bits like where Jesus eats food without first washing his hands, and some religious authority types see him and ask why he didn't wash his hands, and Jesus answers with some homily, and the religious authority folks depart.

I don't know how this reads to the average Christian, but to this very day observant Orthodox Jews ritually wash their hands before eating, reciting the blessing (roughly translated) "Blessed are you, Lord, our god, king of the universe, who has sanctified us with his commandments, and commanded us to wash our hands".

That is, the established state of affairs was - and still is! - that God has given a direct order that the Jews must wash their hands before they eat, and this bloke has gone "yeah, nah, not going to do that".

It's so strange because I reckon that to non-Jewish readers this is a minor, random occurrence barely worthy of notice let alone comment. But to an Orthodox a Jewish reader, this is leaps out as an obvious, blatant, explicit defiance of religious law and therefore the local authority of the time.

I don't think there are many Jewish readers of the New Testament (as it happens even I got sick of it and abandoned it), or non-Jewish readers who happen to know enough about Judaism to appreciate the gravity of incidents like this.

Put simply: Jesus was a heretic.
