I Interviewed a Josephus Expert. Luke Never Looked the Same. 🤯w/ Steve Mason

Описание: Did the author of Luke-Acts copy from Josephus? I sat down with Steve Mason, one of the world's leading Josephus scholars, to investigate the evidence.

What we uncover is remarkable: the same unusual Greek terminology, the same historical figures mentioned in the same configurations, and historical "mistakes" in Luke that only make sense if the author was working from Josephus's account.

📚 EVIDENCE COVERED:
The Quirinius census problem (and why it matters)
Judas the Galilean and Theudas - why Luke gets them backwards
"The Egyptian" and the Sicarii - a smoking gun?
Why Luke calls the Pharisees "the most accurate school"
The mysterious Lysanias of Abilene
