When do you think Moses wrote things down?

I don't. I do't think Moses wrote the first five books.

How about Daniel?

Don't know, doesn't matter. What matters is when the Gospel writers wrote things down... and everyone agrees that it was decades after Jesus' earthly life was over, by men who had the writings of Moses, Daniel, and the rest all but laid out in front of them at the time -- a couple of them admitted as such.


"Threescore and two" weeks would be 62 weeks -- a little over a year. The Romans waited a lot longer before finally sacking Jerusalem and obliterating the temple.

Unless "threescore" refers to years, meaning 60 years and two weeks. If we put Jesus' crucifixion around AD 30, then the destruction of the temple in AD 70 means this time the Romans jumped the gun.

And if he is not saved and teaching this people another gospel....he is in danger of eternal hell torment in the lake of fire...where his worm will die not.

I suggest you keep your immoral, insulting empty threats to yourself.

I think Jesus was working with the traditional beliefs of the time... I also think his message bears investigation regardless of who wrote the OT before him.

Alas, too many people -- then as well as now -- get hung up on literalism and miss the bigger picture. Not even John's Gospel could clear that up.

Whom do you think did then instead of Moses?

I don't know, but I suspect multiple authors -- any of whom would've been far more effective at detailing the death of Moses and the aftermath than Moses himself would've been....

On a side note, I suspect whoever wrote Deutoronomy was on Josiah's payroll -- but I digress.

What do you think is the reason Moses is mentioned numerous times in the NT as linked up with the writings that are from the first five book of the Old Testament?

Because that was the traditional belief at the time.

All well and good, but secular history still proves this prophecy to be a bust.
