Quote:That much is well established, but Zechariah ben Berechiah's death must be established to prove anything. Both Zechariah's are seperated by almost 3 Centuries (as Netanel rightly pointed out) and can't be confused with each other !!
Quote:Not really, you ASSUMED Jesus was refering to 2Ch. 24:20-21 !
Quote:The key to Matt.23:35 is the span of murders Jesus is referring to: "FROM the blood of righteous Abel (the first murder of the righteous) to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah (the MOST RECENT murder of the righteous at that time), whom you murdered between the Sanctuary and the altar.
Quote:Unless anyone can PROVE conclusively that Zechariah ben Berechiah did not die between the altar and the sanctuary then there's no basis for concluding Jesus (hence Matthew) had the wrong Zechariah.
