Simcha and His Love of Theological Trauma - Editorial Meme
So of course Simcha Jacobovici chimes in and once more we see the same sort of enthusiasm as with the "Jesus Tomb." :-)
There is much more to be published about this fragment and I must again commend Dr. King for how she didn't go for sensationalizing it and now the academic community is beginning to do what it does best: Discuss.
Peace,
