Is the ' Not rebuilding of the temple after the year 70 ' secondary evidence ?
Didn't Jesus say - Matthew 24:2 - that not a stone of God's temple would be left standing, and that happened in the year 70.
Later, Emperor Julian planned to rebuild the temple.
According to church historians Julian encouraged the Jews to rebuild the temple in the hope of proving Jesus a false prophet.
Those historians debated whether the work was ever started, or if abandoned after starting, but what is certain is that Julian was killed within a couple years after coming to power and his temple project died with him, but Jesus' words remained true.

Look at my link. For religion the Bible is a primary source of the religion. It is not a primary source for the history of many of these events. The NT especially/

What is contradictory about Luke 4:16 B ?

When you change the verse I am talking about you are creating a strawman.

Luke 4:16 is contradicted by Mark 6:1-6 which does not mention reading at all. Also Nazareth was a flyspeck of a village with no record of a synagogue, all that has been found was a bathhouse.

Zacharias - Luke 1:63 - was a grown man before Jesus was born. Since Zacharias could write why couldn't he teach Jesus to write?

Zacharias was of the priest caste and his father was priest. Religious leaders and castes were educated due to their social standing, role in administration and society. Jesus' parents were not priests nor part of the administration or social system.

Who wrote for what reason according to Exodus 17:14; John 7:19; John 7:42

John 7:16 is evidence of widespread illiteracy. John 7:42 is not evidence of literacy but merely repeating a common meme repeated for centuries. The adultry story itself is not part of the orginal Gospel nor found in the other 3. It is an addition found is the least reliable and the most removed Gospel from the time of Jesus. It is a product of the 4th and 5th centuries.

What did Jesus teach from but from the old Hebrew Scriptures - John 8:2; John 7:16; John 5:46-47

Again John 8 is an interpolation not found in older manuscripts. Verses attributed to Moses claimed to be about Jesus are very slim and retrofired exegesis into a Christian paradigm. There is also major issues with Moses and archaeology but this is off-topic

The written Constitution of the Mosaic Law code was a rule of action. - Psalms 1:2
Deuteronomy 6:6-9; Deuteronomy 17:18-19
God's Word ( Scripture ) was Not written down to be rejected or Not used - 1 Samuel 15:23-24
Jesus was the Abrahamic messenger of that covenant contract - Malachi 3:1; Malachi 4:4

Christian paradigm used an interpretation view point.

I do thank you but I am aware of these sources and used them in my dissertations in theology.

My comment was a supportive one rather than directly towards you. The source link was for those unaware of the difference between primary and secondary sources.
