Analogy: scholarly assumption that Jesus didn't speak Greek

Were Women Apostles in the New Testament? Women in Ministry part 5 00:31:31 – 00:32:01

Mike draws a parallel to another uncritically absorbed scholarly assumption.

Mike compares the Junia consensus to the widespread scholarly assumption that Jesus did not speak Greek. He argues the evidence for that claim is thin and there is strong evidence Jesus probably did speak Greek. Peter Williams agrees. A whole generation of scholars assumed it without carefully examining it. Similar uncritical absorption may have happened with the Junia consensus.
