YOU WOULD ALMOST THINK that with all the research that's been done for centuries, it would be almost impossible to discover anything new about, for instance, jesus. Nevertheless, a harvard anthropologist came up with a scrap of leather on which is written an alledged quote from joshua ben joseph himself, something about having a wife.
A piece of ancient canvas, with someone writing down an alleged quote from jesus, saying he had a wife. Well, we'll see. One thing is for certain: we will never know whether jesus had a wife, its too late to find out.
Strangely, jesus himself never did any writing, which can be viewed as very unfortunate; if he had written down everything he wanted us to know, and we had it toady, the world might be a far better place, and we might not be fighting over different religions interpretations; jesus would have set everything straight, personally, sacred text gospel - wise.
But of course, what we do have of the words of jesus, written by people long after his crucifixion, are obviously wise, beautiful, and worthy of following, and yet we do not, at least, not enough.
Perhaps someday we will build a time machine which weill allow researchers travel back in tome to witness and verify the life of jesus of nazerath. Until then, who he really was, in his entirety, and exactly what he said, will be jubject to interpretation. The four gospels certainly do not agree.
It matters not whether jesus had a wife, but rather, what we do now, in our lifetimes, to make the world a better place.
