The wedding of jesus

Hi Oberon!

Thanks for your response. Ben seems to think that it was necessary for jesus to be married to be called a rabbi. You say it wasnt custom back then. I say it doesnt matter. Ok. so back then a man didnt have to be married to be called a rabbi. So Jesus did not have to get married to be called rabbi. Either way, whether he married or not makes no difference to being called a rabbi.

What then would a man have to do back then, to be called a rabbi? I suspect he would have to undergo some training. I dont think Jesus was into tradition, and would not have gone through a formal training course. It doesnt seem like everybody called him rabbi. Some people called him rabbi because that is what he was to them. But whether jesus was 'legally' a rabbi, either through marrying or getting training he wasnt too much bothered about it.

If it wasnt necessary for jesus to marry in order to be called a rabbi, then he could have married anyway. If it was necessary for jesus to get married to be called a rabbi, i dont think he would have married because it was tradition. I dont think jesus would have tied the knot just so that he would be considered a rabbi.

So to me, whatever Jesus did, get married or not, it had nothing to do with what others naturally considered him to be. Perhaps that was part of the reason the hypocrites hated him. He was teaching the word of god since he was a young boy, i dont think he considered it necessary to wait until he is married to teach.

It is worthy mentioning though, that after this wedding the whole ministry of jesus seemed to get off the ground.

Jesus never had any problem with the Jewish tradition. You are confusing the real Jesus of Nazareth with the Christ of Paul. Paul was the one who had a problem with
Jewish tradition.

Ben, i dont think that healing on the sabath was a very jewish thing to do. You are confused. Going into the temple and trowing stuff around wasnt tradition either. Maybe jesus didnt have anything against circumcision, but its not like he could stop someone from giving him the chop. Jesus wasnt against jewish tradition, but neither was he subject to it.

Here is the problem Ben..Its very arrogant to suggest that anyone on this thread sees real evidence or "proof" that Jesus was married and you have determined they just find it "too hard to accept"..That is not what I see here..I see people discussing it as a possibliltity and determing for there own selves based on what information we have that in thier opinion he was or wasnt or we will never know..But further the fact you are claiming that not only do you know the answer to that(he was married) but you know specifically TO WHOM and people are just refusing to accept it is again extremely arrogant.

You are not the final authority or who gets to determine what motivates other people to come to whatever conclusion they do..The people on this thread have been very open minded and reasonable..Just because any one in particular does not believe your theory(and thats exactly what it is Ben..your theory not facts) to be accurate does not equate to denial of the truth..

There isa big difference between "If you find too hard to accept..." and "I am determined that you find to hard to accept." Do you see what I mean? In this case,
I am not arrogant.

The evidences that Jesus married Magdalene are just to clear to think of any other woman. If you check my original topic, I have outlined a few of them.

I agree that mine is a theory, but just kike Evolution is still a theory.

LOL, but most of us are sure you have your mary's mixed up. So if it was mary magdalene, its not because you cleared that up for us!

In this case..IMHO you are being arrogant...

The evidence that Jesus was married at ALL is not clear..Let alone if He was who it was that He married..

Its clear to YOU..If its not clear ..(not even close for me) to anyone else ..does not mean they are refusing to accept..Whats "refused" here is your theory being accepted as obvious fact.

I could say the same about you...that " if you are refusing to accept Jesus was unmarried it must be because to you that would mean..... fill in the blank...."....

I think so yes. If mary magdalene was a jew, iand she married jesus, its a wonder she wasnt killed before she got married. Some think she was a prostitute.

Jesus was married but it didn't work out;

Wife: "You mean he offered you the world?---the world!?---and you said 'no'"!?

I'll make you a deal. The second I believe that it was mary magdalene, i'll let you know if i feel jealous about the fact that it wasnt me.:angel2:

But so far, there is nothing to be jealous about when it comes to ben's brain.

:D

I dont have any reason to believe she was a prostitute..She had demons..That could be anything..I dont know why automatically a woman in the Bible who is a sinner the assumption is lept to she must have been a whore...

Kind of similar to being called a whore if I dress in a manner that "forces" man to think "impure' thoughts about me ....
