    Why would a "deluded" man quote David? Psalm 22:1

    To the Chief Musician, on the deer of the dawn. A Psalm of David.

    My God, my God, why have You forsaken me, and are far from my deliverance, and from the words of my groaning?

    The Psalmist was pretty deluded too. ;)

    I forget the exact passage, but somewhere near the end of John it is admitted that much of what Jesus said and did was never recorded. That almost sounds like an admission that what _was_ recorded are myths and legends.

    I guess I don't understand what difference it would make if he was quoting David, if in fact that was what he was doing. Please explain.

    Nark..Both Irenaeus and Ignatius seem to quote the words, but of course just what they were quoting is ??? Luke, Diatessaron, source material who knows. Anyway the counter explanation is that the words were felt too forgiving of the Jews and removed to fuel a growing antiJewish sentiment. To some extent this makes sense to me but the late date of Luke in the first place makes that argument seem less persuasive.

    David, a prophet, predicated Christ's return 100's of years prior to Christ. Plus, Jesus is part David's lineage. David just happens to say the SAME exact words as Jesus does before he dies on the cross?

    How is that possible!?? ;->
