page 95 note 8 The Birth of Christianity, p. 96. See, as examples, Jesus and the Victory of God, pp. 87, 517, 554, 662. I took the verb ‘bypassed’ from that p. 87 and, here once again, I decry the sneering condescension (those words are carefully and accurately chosen) with which you describe previous tradition-critical scholarship on those pages.

page 109 note 46 For example, Sibylline Oracles 2:319–24, in a Jewish apocalypse dated to the reign of Augustus, describes how ‘The earth will belong equally to all, undivided by walls or fences … Lives will be in common and wealth will have no division. For there will be no poor man there, no rich, and no tyrant, no slave. Further, no one will be either great or small anymore. No kings, no leaders. All will be on a par together’ (John Collins, Old Testament Pseudepigrapha 1.350–3).
