Maybe Yeshua did come back. Maybe we're in Satan's little season where he gets to try to deceive the masses. Look at the buildings from "Tartaria." Maybe there's been a time erased from history, and people who remembered and spoke of it were sent to insane asylums and their children to orphanages. Josephus talks about seeing the angels coming on the clouds. And why would there be a third rebuilding of the temple? We are to be filled with the Holy Spirit and our bodies our temple. Yeshua already died for our sins. Anything sacrificed on an altar now would be an abomination by a religion who refused to accept the Messiah.

Yeshua wasn't a liar, so why would he think of him as such? Maybe the answer is really the most simple one.

What do you think about Lewis' argument that this and Jesus' words on the cross indicate historical reliability (presumably with respect to the authorial intention)?

It makes sense as an argument once more fixed views about Christ's divine nature had been generally settled. Would you say this is the case for the late 1st century Christians?

Do the conventions of ancient bioi have anything to say on this matter i.e are such additions of ignorance etc unusual for hero stories etc at the time?

Thanks!
