Jesus' wife? Not so fast!

9/19/2012

Does a fourth century fragment, which may be a copy of a second century composition, provide evidence that Jesus was married?  No, according to an essay by Dr. Karen L. King, Harvard Divinity School historian.

It simply shows that, if the second century date is correct, the fragment provides "direct evidence that claims about Jesus' marital status first arose over a century after the death of Jesus in the context of intra-Christian controversies over sexuality, marriage, and discipleship."

Dr. Jeff Gibbs, Concordia Seminary professor, offers his response here.
