Dear Mr. Weeden, other members of the group:
Your piece on sleeping/ the disciples apostacy is not at the crosstalk site anymore, or yahoo cannot find crosstalk this morning.  I'm not sure which.  I would like to read it.

I would like to ask you and other members of the group, is Dr. Kelber's position, dating Mark after the fall of Jerusalem not even discussed?  I can't really see a person sitting down in the midst of such chaos to write.  And even if someone did, who would read it?  In the midst of a war, and given the state of writing technology at the time, I just don't think this would be an effective way of communicating.

Then what do you make of Daniel? It is a work almost as long as Mark, also
a "biography" (of sorts), written during a war at a crises point, and its
author fully expected it to be read!

Yours,

Jeffrey Gibson
