The Event of Wor­ship to the Gold­en Calf

The Israelites repent­ed about wor­ship­ping the gold­en calf BEFORE Moses returned from the moun­tain [7:149], yet they refused to repent but rather con­tin­ued to wor­ship the calf until Moses came back [20:91]. Does Aaron share in their guilt ? No [20:85 – 90], yes [20:92, 7:151].

Paul’s Depen­den­cy on Tal­mu­dic Writ­ings : Evi­dence of New Tes­ta­ment Borrowing

While Chris­tians would pre­fer to allude to the notion that Paul, the self-acclaimed ​“apos­tle” of Jesus, was ​“inspired” when he wrote his epis­tles, the evi­dences we have researched states oth­er­wise. We have seen how Paul had cit­ed a verse from the ​“apoc­ryphal books of Eli­jah” but claimed that he was cit­ing from the book of Isa­iah. Appa­rant­ly this cit­ing of quo­ta­tions from apoc­ryphal or Rab­binic writ­ings was not alien to Paul, for in the epis­tles of Paul, there are abun­dant signs that he was extreme­ly famil­iar with Rab­ban­ic mate­r­i­al and con­stant­ly refers to them. This is not sur­pris­ing since Paul him­self had admit­ted to famil­iar­i­ty with Jew­ish tra­di­tions under the tute­lage of Gamaliel (Acts 22:3).

Paul Says That Mark Is Futile : No Res­ur­rec­tion In Mark’s Gospel

The Bible Ibn Anwar -
But the first of the four gospels, i.e., the Gospel accord­ing to Mark, appar­ent­ly did not receive Paul’s memo. And this is a very impor­tant point as we keep in mind that each of the gospels were ini­tial­ly divorced from each oth­er and were writ­ten in dif­fer­ent local­i­ties for dif­fer­ent audiences.

The Gospels’ Accounts Regard­ing the Call of the First Disciples

The Bible Mohd Elfie Nieshaem Juferi -
So which is the cor­rect Gospel account con­cern­ing the choice of Jesus’ first apos­tles ? The fol­low­ing Bible con­tra­dic­tion was extract­ed from an unpub­lished the­sis enti­tled Ibn Hazm On The Doc­trine of Tahrif which cites Kitab al-Fasl fi al-Milal wa al-Ahwa’ wa al-Nihal and insha’allah this will be part of an ongo­ing series to repro­duce extracts of Ibn Hazm’s crit­i­cisms of the Bible and Christianity.
