In this video I respond to Rabbi Tovia Singers absurd belief that Mary was not a virgin and that Jesus real father was a Roman soldier called Pantera. This crazy and worn out view is based primarily on the Talmudic writings and the grave stone of a Roman soldier from Sidon. The Talmud is filled with historical errors, edits and is mostly written hundreds of years after Jesus and the apostles died. Often times the Talmud is illogical babbling worse than the Quran.
TALMUD WRITINGS
The Jews constantly heard that the Christians (the majority of whom spoke Greek from the earliest times) called Jesus by the name "Son of the Virgin"... and so, in mockery, they called him Ben ha-Pantera, i.e., "son of the leopard." It was gradually forgotten that Jesus was so called after his mother, and the name “pantere” or “pantori” or “pandera” was thought to be that of his father and since this is not a Jewish name, there arose a legend that the natural father was a foreigner; and it was concluded that Miriam, the mother of Jesus, committed adultery with a soldier, and, of course, with a Roman soldier, since there were Roman legions in Judea at the time. Joseph Klausner (Jewish Historian - Chief editor of the Encyclopedia Hebraica).
In my view the allegation that Jesus’ real father was a man named Pantera (or panthera) exploits Christians’ claim that Jesus was born of a “virgin” (Greek, parthenos). It was nothing more than a play on words. Pantera was the closest sound alike name, and was a name of soldiers, so Jesus’ conception was suggested to be not that of a virgin, a “parthenos”, but that of a soldier, named Panthera. We have here nothing more than slander and rebuttal. We have no actual archaeological evidence that can with any probability be linked to Jesus. - Craig Evans
First, the earliest rabbinic sources date from the late second to the third century and the most celebrated material even later than this. This alone raises questions about the historical value of this material. To illustrate, we possess a rabbinic account of Jesus’s life (Toledot Yeshu) that claims, among other things, that Jesus was born out of wedlock, grew up acting disrespectful toward Jewish leaders, and mastered magical practices to gain a following. It also claims that Jesus’s body was found after his death. Were this a first-or even second-century document, it
might be of historical interest. However, the Toledot Yeshu was compiled in the fifth century. True, Toledot Yeshu and other Jewish literature contain traditions that predate them, but the relatively late date and clear polemical focus of Toledot Yeshu and other rabbinic references to Jesus render them suspect as historical sources. They tell us something about Jewish polemics against the early Christian movement, but nothing reliably about Jesus. (Eddy and Boyd, JL, 170–171)
TIBERIUS JULIUS ABDES PANTERA
This archeological finding really doesn’t give us any more information than what the historians have already given us; namely, that it’s likely that there were Roman soldiers in Judea named Penthera.
Penthera was a very common name for a Roman soldier and since it was the closest name to Parthenos the Jews used it to create the slur.
Because the name “Panthera” was to be found among Roman soldiers it was applied to the imaginary lover. - Joseph Klausner
This name, as first-century inscriptions show, was fairly common. - Eric Snow
Scholars who have studied the inscription doubt that Pantera was old enough to have impregnated Mary or anyone else in 5 or 6 BC. - Craig Evans
WHEN WERE THE VIRGIN BIRTH NARRATIVES WRITTEN?
The virgin birth is mentioned in both Matthew and Luke’s Gospel accounts. Luke was written before Acts because Acts is the sequel to Luke, and Acts was written well before 70 AD, most likely in the early 60’s AD.
Acts ends with Paul’s first imprisonment in Rome during the reign of , prior to his final imprisonment and execution in 63-64 AD under the Emperor Nero.
It’s unlikely that Luke would have omitted Paul’s execution under Nero if it had already taken place, especially since he already recorded the execution of Stephan and James the apostle in the Book of Acts.
Paul quotes Luke as scripture in 1 Timothy 5:18.
For Scripture says, "Do not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain," and "The worker deserves his wages." 1 Timothy 5:18
MATTHEW’S POLEMICAL RESPONSE
Tamar (Genesis 38).
Ruth the Moabite (Genesis 19:30-39).
Rahab the prostitute (Joshua 2:1 & Ruth 4:18-22).
Bathsheba the mother of Solomon (2 Samuel 11).
