Here I am, not a Christian anymore, and all I obsess about these days is listening to truth about the bible.

Isaiah 53 is about me. I accidentally cut myself a few months ago so I was “pierced for yours transgressions”.

Is an apologetic creator seeking attention.

Don't even have to watch the video to say "Probably yes."

This is why scholars and scholarship are so important. Whether you are in total agreement with them or not, their conclusions are based on objective evidences and those evidences are vetted by their peers in the field... probably long before the layman gets a chance to offer their uncritical analysis. Scholarship can protect us from the blathering's of Christian Apologist and other scriptural hustlers trying to build thiefdoms off the gullibility of the sincere believer. Thank you, Dr., McClellan.

This behavior is common among cults.

When the cult leader's claims fail to be realized, a percentage of the followers often choose to retcon all of the cult's sacred writings and the cult leader's statements to fit the new circumstances rather than admit to themselves that they fell for a con artist and wasted part of their lives.

Rather than acknowledge that they dug a hole for themselves and it's time to climb out, they just keep digging so the hole gets deeper. 😞

People keep pitching at Dan, not understanding what it means to be a scholar, and he keeps batting it out of the park.

And if that is your thing, the Internet is like a batting cage.

I love the “no, it’s not” laugh

There are NO prophecies about the future where the events are written about as if they already happened. If Isaiah 53 was a prediction of the future it would say "will be crushed, will be despised" not "was crushed", etc.

When someone elects to use the strong "demonstrably false," they better understand the "demonstrate" part -- instead of just one-dimensionally quoting the Bible.
See what Dan did? Demonstrate with citations and sources.
I guess that dude just wanted to SOUND like Dan saying "demonstrably false," but predictably fell miserably short.
About that glow-up, sir? DENIED.

Obviously Isaiah 53 is a prophecy about pop punk band names from the 1990s-2000s. Yes, it was that bad.

Need to know if that content creator ended with: "And the fit for this video has been Johnny Cash."

I've been waiting to see Dan battle The Undertaker for quite some time!

"Incremental elaboration on existing traditions" important point.

"The daughters of Zion are haughty!"  Isaiah.   They certainly are in Tampa!  Woo!

Our RE teacher telling us how Jesus was not at all what Jews expected the Messiah to be and how the early Christians had to do this sort of thing with the text to get over this problem, was one of the things that got me interested in biblical studies.

Xtians Usually: You are not reading it *CONTEXT* .
Xtians on Isaiah 53: We do *NOT* need the context of *ALL* the previous verses.

LOLZ

These apologists need to grasp the fact that the Jesus character was a Jew. A Jew that had a desire to change the iniquities that he felt existed within Judaism. There exists zero theistic evidence that his desire was to form a new Religion. His sycophants made that decision and are to this day still trying to legitimize that action as being predestined. It wasn't.

Isaiah never mentions "Jesus" ... not even once

Appreciate the video Dan. God bless 🙏

hello, given that the famous 'emmanuel' prophecy that matthew reappropriated for messiah is one of the major points of absurdity in that book (that and the 'from egypt i called my son' taken from hosea and also totally absurd in a messianic context), i'll be very interested in how that eejit 'demonstrates' you were wrong
