In “More Than a Carpenter” Josh focuses upon the person who changed his life - Jesus Christ. It is a hard-headed book for people who are skeptical about Jesus’ deity, his resurrection, his claims on their lives.

Great, short book paraphrasing Lewis’ “Lord, Liar or Lunatic” argument. Seeing the cover brought back great memories of my 20s.

He may have been a mason too. The word in Ancient Greek is Tekton (Atrisan/Craftsman). It’s not necessarily a carpenter. Just goes to show you that most people that read the bible have no idea what they’re reading.

@mklangelo and that would have made a pretty big difference in the overall meaning of Christ’s life and purpose…

Thank you for this!

Tektōn denotes being generally involved in the building trade, which particularly included carpentry, wood-working & other construction tasks. But He transitioned to pursue another mission.
The most famous ex-carpenter since then is probably Harrison Ford.

He, if He actually existed, may have been a Artisan/Craftsman.

Could be mason, engineer, builder, or of course woodworker.
The books of the bible that we have in Greek, Latin and so on, are not originals. They are copies of copies of copies of copies. Of copies.
Lots of great wisdom in the Bible. But don’t run around saying it’s all factual.
Did you ever play the game called, “telephone” when you were a kid?
You all sit in a circle and one kid writes down a simple one sentence statement. He/she whispers it in the ear of the kid next to him/her, and so on. When it gets back to the origin, everyone laughs at how it’s never even close to the original statement.
Multiply that by 2000 years.

Oh yes, copyism was essential, as the manuscrits would decay (this industry of preservation gave us the Renaissance and the textual arifacts of the Classical World we still have today). However…that copying took place all over Europe, at multiple Scriptoria in Catholic Monasteries. And due to the devout reverence the many copyists had for the Word, it gave us the same Bible. Until the Reformation, when the diverse Protestant denominations actually wanted the vernacular scriptures to be excised in various ways.
Add to that the fact that the Jewish people had been copying out the Torah & the various texts we know as the Old Testament, at still another remove.
Yeah, He could’ve been accomplished in several roles within His trade.
The “telephone” analogy would work if it was confined to one location, with no oversight & comparison available. And it wasn’t played by Biblical scholars, philosophers & theologians.
As to the existence game, the documentary evidence for the historicity of “Yeshua” of Nazareth is overwhelming. We have multiple sources, both Christian & non-Christian, for his life, and especially his death (more than for the death of the Emperor Augustus in AD 14). It was unusual for a non-elite person to register any mention at all. The propagation of the non-existence theory is particularly popular on the internet, amongst non-scholars & conspiracy theorists.

That should read “manuscripts” - it’s these new dentures.

Even then Protestants didn’t change the Bible, they dropped the Deuterocanonical books.

When translating the Bible into German, Luther made critical alterations. He added the word “alone” (allein in German) to Romans 3:28 controversially so that it read: “So now we hold, that man is justified without the help of the works of the law, alone through faith” The word “alone” does not appear in the Greek texts. It modifies and alters the original conception.
Changing the entire meaning & emphasis of Christianity; consciously & erroneously freeing people from a crucial, charitable obligation.
The other passages which refuted him, he wanted removed from the text, claiming that they went against certain new Protestant doctrines such as sola gratia and sola fide. They included the entire Book of James, because this passage disproved his “justification by faith alone” doctrine: “And Faith without works is dead (James 2:17-20).”
Similarly, Luther made an attempt to remove the books of Hebrews, Jude and Revelation from the canon.

mklangelo, Caesar is correct. Sounds like somebody should visit tektonics.org.
