And here is Thiering's utterly bizarre reply:
"Jesus' supporters had supplied the medicines for use by the physician
Simon. They could not supply the juice alone, as Simon could not
handle a cup."
He could not handle a cup, you see, but he could pick up a hundred
pounds of aloe leave and squeeze them hard enough to get the juice out
while holding them precisely in position.

Wow. I am shocked -- shocked I tell you -- to see David
Carl Christainsen referencing a web page that he says
supports his assertion but which actually refutes it.
Just like he did the last dozen times. What a shocker.

The pesher method, the Thiering methodology takes literally years
to understand completely.
Why would Engineer fire away on the NGs before studying Dr.
Thiering's books and her brilliant, scholarly articles?
There's one in particular that I have characterized as the GATEWAY.
Engineer or anybody else is free to request Yowie of SRQ
(soc.religion.quaker)
to forward a copy to you by email -
"The Three and a Half Years of Elijah",
Novum Testamentum 23,1, 1981, pp.41-55.
P.S.
Engineer rushes into print way too often.

Any evidence for that? Or is just required to make the theory work?

It's not "sleuthing". That implies detective work, deduction,
discovering and interpreting evidence and so on. All you want us to do
is search through a mass of badly written, unedited stuff for stuff
which you intend that we should accept as uncritically as you do.
> I don't see why I have to get involved on the NGs about it.
Because you bring it up and promise to answer any questions. Alas that
promise seems to be worth very little.
Ian
You get involved

Do you understand it completely?

And the question was not where the nails in Jesus' upper extremities
were, but where they were in the purported Simon Magus--who does
appear to be in the story because it works (better?) that way.
By the time of Christ, the Romans had a lot of experience crucifying
folk. Caesar's pay-back of the pirates who'd captured him (albeit he
did show some mercy there), and the fighters in the slave revolt by
Spartacus come to mind.

I don't think anyone else does either.
