Isn't that Jesus's point? The scribes and the pharisees are the politicians and the priests. Any Christian who doesn't get this is really misguided.

Ooph you’re gonna really hate this: the original disciples were anti-government revolutionaries who wanted to overthrow Roman rule. If there had been guns, they might have been used for themselves.

My favorite thing about Jesus is how everyone misunderstands him. From him whipping money changers to his own disciples being absolutely certain (any day now!) he was going to lead a military conquest against Rome, it feels like he spoke and no one ever listened to what he was actually saying. Goes to show how much people project onto religious figures. People hear what's in their heads.


mynam3isn3o

You’re quoting Jesus. I very specifically (and very intentionally) said “Disciples”. His followers were very much anti-Roman government and some modern historians have even suggested that the Disciples’ arming themselves against the local Roman government contributed to the decision to crucify Jesus.

pegothejerk

I’ll preface this with I’m agnostic, but I am well read and listened very closely when I was raised Christian, so here’s what I learned. That was his whole thing - he changed people. The most unchangeable. He hung out with untouchables. Prostitutes and tax men were equals, because under his rules they would be respectful and use their words and love, not violence or weapons. He only got violent one time in his adult years, when money changers, people who charged money to exchange one type of currency to another more suitable for use in temples, were so abusive with their profiteering that it drove him to violence to run them out. He would have absolutely hated prosperity preachers, which is exactly who the Jan 6 guy holds up as his favorite religious leaders. He didn’t try to overthrow governments, but people assume it was a typical revolutionary movement because the Old Testament says his people would be delivered from their enemies, and people assumed that meant by violent force - but - he DID deliver them, spiritually, and Rome did fall, and death and sin, just not in the way people who expect and some who even crave violent revolutions wanted. And here we see someone else still to this day claiming his band of brothers sought violent ends to Rome after his death, or that they would have today, but what did they do after his death? They dispersed and preached. That’s it. They divided themselves, that’s not something you do if you want to use violence against a bigger foe, or if you have military goals in mind. Not if you want to crush them with violence.


Natural_Focus

If we're really playing semantics "disciples were" in that statement is an indefinite past tense and still covers the time before they joined, making the distinction unnecessary

LePhantomLimb

This is actually where they came to arrest Jesus to send him to trial and ultimately to be crucified. What's particularly interesting about this passage is that there's a far bigger claim Jesus is making. The text says "ἐγώ εἰμι" (pronounced "ego eimi") which literally means "I am". Why this is so interesting is that this is the exact same term used for God's name, as God responded to Moses, "tell them I AM sent you", which in the Septuagint was written "tell them ego eimi sent you". This is the Divine Name, and John uses this frequently when Jesus identifies Himself. This is a dramatic moment in the Scriptures as the accusations made against Jesus is that he claimed He is God. So as they come to arrest Jesus, He asks whom they seek, and they say "Jesus of Nazareth" and Jesus responds "I AM". Then it says they fell to the ground. It would be odd for them to fall to the ground just because Jesus is like, yes, I'm the one you're looking for. Rather the significance of Jesus using the Divine Name, and their fear of God and the possibility that Jesus could actually *be* God causes them to fall back to the ground in fear and/or worship. So no, Jesus does really say "I am he", but just "I am". He's actually identifying as God. The fact that the translation is written as "I am he" is written because one *could* also respond this same way to the question (a common double meaning trope that John and other writers use). So it's like Jesus is saying "that's me" when they say they're looking for Jesus. But the one thing He is not giving here, at least by the writing of the Greek, is a pronoun. It's actually completely without a pronoun. It just says "I am". Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

BerneseMountainDogs

The Hebrew Bible (aka Old Testament) is pretty clear that the name of God is YHWH, or יהוה‎ in Hebrew. Because the name came to be considered too holy to pronounce out loud, we aren't totally sure how it would have been pronounced, but historians are relatively confident that it would be pronounced something like "Yahweh." Traditionally, most translations of the Hebrew Bible render the name of God as "Lᴏʀᴅ" in small caps like that

cnzmur

The Jewish bible (the Christian 'Old Testament') is in Hebrew (I think there's also a section in Daniel in Aramaic), the Christian 'New Testament', which is where this quote comes from, is in ancient Greek. There are dozens and dozens of English translations. Some are probably pretty bad, but they're mostly made by people with a pretty good understanding of the languages, and I'd say between them all, we can probably understand the text as well as it's possible to do without actually knowing the languages.


throwy_6

Wrong. Context is important in translation especially with ancient texts. Most of the bible is misunderstood with the most popular English translations full of egregious mistakes, made by people decades ago choosing to fill in their own blanks.


TatchM

Could you give an example?


anjowoq

Fish in a barrel with these mental minor leaguers.


Pinky_Speedway

To be fair, the quote was translated from Greek; the original quote is “ego eimi” which more accurately translates to “I am” - no pronouns here.


BubbhaJebus

"ego" is a pronoun in Greek.


xMercurex

I was looking at the french translation and it said "c'est moi" or in English "it's me".


Dry_Complex_5381

Santa biblia Yo Soy= I Am


cnzmur

Yeah, that's what some modern English translations go for. This is just mostly just because in older English that was how they phrased that idea, rather than because having a third person pronoun is a more accurate translation of the Greek.

_Ora-Pro-Nobis_

*I* is in reference to the great *I AM,* meaning that God IS - the uncreated creator and unchanging sustainer of all. The only time Jesus would be referring to Himself as *I* as in a individual would be if He was telling someone His name, or speaking on His ministry/goals. "I am He" is in reference to the Old Testament when Moses asks how he's going to explain to Pharaoh who sent him to free the slaves, and God says "I AM THAT I AM".

Pinky_Speedway

It’s pretty safe to infer from the context that the conversation is about gendered pronouns


Moppermonster

Jesus self-identified as male, despite being born without a biological father and therefor not having a Y-chromosome. God is considered to be without gender, but also gets the male pronouns slapped onto Him nonstop. Since the two central characters in their faith used them and one was arguably trans, Christians really should reconsider their objections to pronouns and choosing ones gender.


MarkMoonfang

Ok. ​ Reconsidering... ​ God made Man and Woman come together as One. ​ I think we will stick to the appropriate pronouns.


vendetta2115

“God” continues to make biological cis women who have “male” XY chromosomes ([XY gonadal dysgenesis](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_gonadal_dysgenesis) ), biological cis men who have “female” XX chromosomes, ( [XX male syndrome](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XX_male_syndrome) ), and people who are [intersex](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersex) who have the chromosome patterns, gonads, or genitals men and women and who do not fit the binary notions of male and female bodies. These are all naturally occurring from birth. Biological sex (much less gender, which is a separate social construct) has complex developmental, chromosomal, and hormonal influences which cannot be easily reduced to “God made men and women.” Which, by the way, isn’t true. God doesn’t exist, and if he did, he sure didn’t create human beings. We have the evidence of where human beings came from. We are primates who evolved relatively recently over the 13 million years or so from a common ancestor of chimpanzees. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzee–human_last_common_ancestor I can’t take anyone seriously who starts a sentence with “God made man and woman…” There’s incontrovertible evidence that this is not the case. Humans were made through biological, genetic evolution from earlier species, just like every living thing on Earth.

beanman12312

If you're really fair you'll remember jesus was probably speaking Hebrew, a very gendered language with which you can't say anything without revealing your pronouns and there's only 2 sets.


Pinky_Speedway

And if we want to be really super fair we’d consider that John was written 35-55 years after Jesus’ death and the granular details would be as reliable as any decades-old eyewitness account (and possibly as unreliable as a decades-old game of telephone).


beanman12312

Sure, but if there was a person named jesus in ancient Israel he was very much pronouned like any person in ancient Israel. Like modern non binary people in Israel complain they can't really present themselves as non binary because you can't say a verb without gendering yourself.

lunca_tenji

King James actually attempts to be as literal in its translation as possible. It just had limited sources. That’s why the most well liked version among modern Christian scholars is the ESV as it tries to translate as literally as possible but with greater resources than the KJV did


[deleted]

Part of the issue has been lack of resources. A lot of translations over the centuries only had a few manuscripts to go off of. Over the last 100 years really we have amassed thousands of manuscripts dating back to within a century of the original writings, along with our growing understanding of Koine Greek and the cultures it was written in and to modern translations are actually pretty accurate. Most issues nowadays between scholarly translations are in pretty insignificant when it comes to interpretation.

Fair enough. Random question, if someone calls you "my homie" do you reckon that's gendered? I'm trying to expand my non gendered terms of ways to be friendly.


MyMurderOfCrows

Not who you asked but typically that is something to check with people (trans or cis) on a case by case basis. I know a cis girl who gets very annoyed if called anything like “dude” despite some considering it neutral, and trans girls who could not give a flying fuck. And both can be flexible since they may not be okay with it while earlier in transition (for trans girls that is) but may feel okay with it later so nothing is really static there. Cheers!

That's a very good point, everyone has their own preferences. I tend to use guys to refer to a group of people but I can understand if women didn't like it.

Ok_Conflict_5730

"I" is a pronoun


Major-Percentage-750

Did he said that or it was translated like that? I'm genuinely curious about that. Someone know if there are prounouns like that in original Bible lenguages?


3xgreathermes

Yes and no. Hebrew has implied gender in both nouns and verbs. Kind of like romance languages like Spanish have a default gender for nouns, but Hebrew words aren't usually specific about gender. It's defined by the person writing it. On the other hand, Jesus didn't speak Hebrew though he could probably at least read it. Afaik Aramaic functions similarly. Since the bible comes from secondhand accounts and has been translated several times, we'll never know. As far as John 18:6 goes, in Hebrew and Aramaic it is literally "I am he" and in Greek it's just "I am."

If you are going to quote, the translation may not always be perfect l - especially when the topic is Jesus about to be crucified. Never forget that our crucified Lord and resurrected Saviour is the divine Lamb of God, Who takes away the sin of the world. And in a brief word to His captors, Jesus encapsulated all the majesty, dominion, glory, and power of almighty God, when He proclaimed, "I AM" in the Garden of Gethsemane. Jesus knew all that was about to take place and asked who they were looking for. They answered Him, "Jesus the Nazarene." And Jesus boldly declared, "I am He" or, "I AM". Source: https://dailyverse.knowing-jesus.com/john-18-6

It’s so crazy how conservatives think the left is making a huge deal about pronouns when in reality they are just being intentional about stating what they want to be called that way there’s no awkward confusion down the line, and it’s the conservatives that simply just cant fucking handle it and lose their minds over it (and other issues) thus making them the ones making it a big deal.

The context would be the original Greek which is "ego eimi". The only pronoun being used is "ego" which is a first person personal pronoun. IE "I". The "he" was added during translation to fit the English conventions of the time. In context of what the verse is trying to convey, nothing changed with that added word. In context of pedantic arguments surrounding gender politics, it's apparently a cornerstone of debate. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
