FlaviusJosephusGivesEvidence

"Catholic,"Eastwood:InarguingwithmethatMaryhadother childrenbesidesJesus,a"WitnessofJehovah"quotedfromabook Tolled"TheWorksofFlaviusJosephus,"translatedbyWilliam Whiston.Thebooklookedprettyold.Ithadnodate,butI'dsay about1890orso.

R.:Youmadeagood guess.Whistonpublisheda translationoftheworksof Josephus,theJewishhistorian,in1737.Whiston'stranslationwasrevisedandrepublishedbyA.R.Shilleto in1890,anditisthat editionwhichisusually quoted,sinceitcompletely supplantedtheoriginal1737 edition,copiesofwhichare veryrareandprobablynonexistentinAustralia.There isnothinginJosephus,however,whichinanywaysupportsthe"WitnessofJehovah"argument.

Q.:WhendidJosephus, theJewishhistorian,write hisbook?

R.:Hiswork,"TheAntiquitiesoftheJews,"was writtenbetween93and94 A.D.

Q.:Howgoodahistorian washe?

R.;Quitegood,forthose limes.Hewasnottrained accordingtoourmodern standardsofscientificand criticalresearch;butthere isnoreasontodoubthis honestandreliableuseof -atichsourcesaswereavailabletohim:andingeneral hisauthorityisunquestionedwherethetextis certainlyauthentic.Thetwo passagesinhisbookconcerningChrist,however,are disputedbycritics,some declaringbothtobelater interpolation,othersdeclaringthefirstandlonger passagetobeaninterpolation,thesecondonebeing authentic.

"thebrotherofJesus,who wascalledChrist,whose namewasJames."

Q.:WasJosephusmistaken indeclaringJamesthe brotherofJesus? R.:Josephuswasdeclaringnothing.Asanhistorian, hemerelyrecorded,for identificationpurposes,the wayinwhichthedisciples ofChristwereaccustomed tospeakofJames.AsaJew, ofcourse,Josephusknew thattheword"brother"in Hebrewgavenonecessary indicationofanyparticular degreeofconsanguinity.-"It couldreferto"cousin,"or evenmoreremotedegrees ofblood-relationship.Nothingcanbesettledfromthe passageinJosephus. We havetogotothegospelsfor asolutionoftheproblem. Matt.13:55ranksJamesand Josephamongthe'brethren' ofJesus;elsewhere,however,hespeaksofJames andJosephasthesonsof anotherMary(Matt.27:56), identifiedbySt.Johnas

"MaryofCleophas"(Jn. 19:25).Itisclearthatthe term"brother,"asapplied toJamesinrelationto Jesus,wasusedinthe broadsensecommonamong theJewsforanydegreeof relationship.

Q.:Asthis"JehovahWitness'seemedimpressedby Josephus,doyouknowof anyotherreferencesin Josephuswhichbearon thismatter?

R.:AsIhavesaid, JosephusexpressesnopersonalopiniononthequestionoftheexactrelationshipofJamestoJesusHe merelyrecordsthewayhe wasspokenofbytheother disciples Hewaswell awarethatthetermcould applytoanydegreeof relationship.Followingthe Jewishcustomhimself,he writesinhis"Aniquities," Book1,chapter19,paragraph7,thatJacobsaidto hisuncleLaban:"Weare allbrethren."Thecustom flourishesamongEastern

peoplestothisday.OrdinarypeopleinIndiaspeak ofanyrelative,afirst, second,orthirdcousin,as "merabhai"(mybrother). Thereisnoroomfordoubt thatJameswascalledthe brotherofJesusinthis broadsense,andwasnot theactualsonofMarythe MotherofJesus.Shehad onechildonly.

Q.:IsthetranslationofJosephusreliable?

R.:The1890edition,as revisedbyA.R.Shilleto,is quiteacceptable.

Q.:Arethereanymodern' translationswhichIcan getholdofformyself?

R.:Theonemorerecent translationoftheWorksof JosephusisthatbyH.St. JohnThackeray,published in1926.Idoubtwhetherany booksellerscouldsupply eitherthe1890orthe1926 translationondemand.They wouldprobablyhavetobe orderedfromoverseas.However,acopycouldcertainly beconsultedinthePublic Library-althoughnothing wouldbegainedfrom Josephuswhichwouldhelp lbthepresentmatterexcept evidenceofhisownuseof theword"brethren"inthe broadsenseIhaveexplained.

Christ,HisOwnAuthority

B.B.,Narrabeen:Asanevangelical,IupholdthesupremeauthorityoftheScripturesinallmattersoffaith.

R.:Theworthofyour claimtobeanevangelical inrealityandnotinname onlydependsonthedegree inwhichyourbeliefsconformtotheactualteachings oftheGospels.Asitisquite evidentfromyourletter thatyouomitconsideration ofmuchthatisinthe Gospels,andhavenotrightly understoodsuchpasagesas youquote,yourclaimto beanevangelicalisamatterofwordsonly.

Again,althoughyousay youupholdthesupremeauthorityoftheScriptures, youreallywantthesupreme authoritytobelongtoyour verdictastowhatthe Scripturesmean.Andyou proceedtoproclaimwhat theScripturesdonotteach atall!That'snotmaking theScripturesthesupreme authority.

Q.:TomaketheBiblealone supremelyauthoritativeis todojustwhatChrist Himselfdid.

R.:Thatisnottrue.TakingtheGospelsmerely undertheiraspectofhistoricaldocumentswefindit thererecordedthatChrist saidtoHishearers:"The scribesandthePharisees havesittenonthechairof Moses.Allthingstherefore whatsoevertheyshallsayto youobserveanddo;but accordingtotheirworksdo yenot,fortheysayanddo not."Matt.23:2-3.

AtthetimeChristspoke, ofcourse,theMosaicdispensationwasstillinforce, andalthoughthescribesand Phariseesdidnotliveup totheirownteachings,their authorityasteachersderivedfromMoseswastobe acknowledgedandtheir guidanceaccepted.When,finally,theOldLawwas abolishedinfavourofthe NewLaw,Christhadpro-

videdfortheApostlesto teachinHisnameandwith Hisauthority.SoSt.Luke describesthefirstChristiansasbeingaddedtothe Churchand"perseveringin thedoctrineoftheApostles." Acts2:42. Thesupreme authorityforChristianswas theteachingoftheChurch asproclaimedbythe Apostles.

Q.:Christ'swholelifewas alifeofsubmissionto theScriptures.

R.:Idon'tthinkyou realisewhatyouaresaying. TheScripturesarethe writtenWordofGod.But ChrististheLivingWord ofGod,theWordwhowas madefleshanddweltamong us.TheLivingWordofGod wasnotsubordinateto thewrittenWordofGod. InHishumannature,makingreparationforthedisobedienceofmankind, Christrenderedperfect obediencetothewillofHis heavenlyFather.Hislife wasalifeofsubmissionto HisFather'swill."The thingsthatpleaseHim,"He said,"Idoalways."Jn.8:29.

Q.:Christconstantlysaid thatHe"must"dieforso itwaswritteninthelaw.

R.:Christdidnothaveto diebecauseitwaswritten inScripture;itwaswritten inScripturebecauseitwas partofGod'sredemptive planthatHeshoulddoso. Inotherwords,Christwas obedientuntodeathtothe willofHisFather,which hadbeenfaithfullydescribed inHolyScripture.Scripture itselfisnotGod;anditis sheer"bibliolatry"tothink ofitandspeakofitasifit were.

Refusingtocommenton thepastoralletteritself,the spokesmansaiditwasnot possibletoformanexact judgmentwithoutknowing thetext,itscontents,the motiveswhichinspiredit, andthecircumstancesto whichitrefers.

Hedidsay,however:"It iscertainthattheinstructionsoftheBishopsof PuertoRicoreferonlyto theirfaithfulontheisland andreflectexclusivelythe particularandspecialconditionsofthatislanditself. Therefore,itisabsolutely outofplacetodrawinferencesinregardtoother territorieswhicharebeyond

"FamilyIsCo-operationWithGod"

Somepeople,hesaid, seektodrawthefamily awayfromtheChurchand "reduceitsvaluetothatof apurelyhumaninstitution, arrivinglittlebylittleatan increasingweakeningofits structure."

Hedeclaredthatlosses inregardtofamilylifecan berestoredbygrace.He warnedthatifmanwithdrawshimselffromgrace, "intentionallyignoringit, conjugallifeisdeprivedof itsmostvaluablesupport."

ThePopethenspoketo Christianeducatorsand doctorswho"wanttoconsidertheirprofession,not unilaterally,butinthefulnessoftherealcondition ofman,towhoserecovery thenaturalandsupernatural contributeabundantly."He continued:

"Thelevitywithwhich onefacesthematrimonial problemonsomanyoccasions,andthepre-occupying weaknessofmoralbarriers, arecausednotonlybya deficiencyinreligiousinstructionbutalsobythelack ofclearandpreciseideas onthepartofthosewho, because'oftheirprofession,

mustbealightandaguide fortheyoungergeneration.

"Thefirstblowtothe resolutionofsomanyconsciences,whoseencounter withanti-Christianeducatorsanddoctorshassometimesbeentheoccasionand causeofsorrowfulabdications,comesfromthewaveringoftheirconvictions,the superficiallyanderrorof theirphilosophicandreligiousformationand-Wesay itwithsorrow-sometimes fromtheperversedesireto placeobstaclesintheway oftheactionoftheChurch."

Asanothermeansof "firmlyestablishingthe securityofthefamily,"the Popesuggested"theperennialreminderofthepaternityofGod."Onthispoint hesaid:
