La bufala del Vangelo di Barnaba
LA BIBLIA DE BERNAB
Citas en el Video:
La Biblia mas antigua demuestra que Jess no fue ni Dios ni el
hijo de Dios.
La Biblia encontrada en Palestina duce : He Was A SERVANT
of God d.h.
El era un sirviente de dios, de hace 2.000 aos una antiga
Biblia encontrada en Palestina.
Es la Biblia mas antigua que todas las Biblias en la tierra. Esta
biblia prieba que el Coran es la absoluta verdad.
Otra aclaracin:

El tema de fondo muy sencillo, como imaginaba
y como he podido descubrir despus por m mismo, con cuatro o
cinco bsquedas de Google, en castellano e ingls.
(En la imagen, una pelcula iran fundada en el Evangelio de Bernab,
como propaganda anti-cristiana Es decir, como propagando
pretendidamente cridtiana a favor de
Mahoma)
a. El texto encontrado no sera
una Biblia de Barrabs sino un
Evangelio de Bernab. Era clara la
falsa traduccin Barnabas (que en
ingls en Bernab) por Barrabas,
porque le suena mejor. No s si la
confusin se hizo ya en ingls o es obra de un traductor hispano.
b. Puesto a imaginar, el redactor de la noticia puso Biblia en
vez de Evangelio y se lo atribuy a Barrabs (personaje
quiz slo simblico, no histrico) y as tenemos ya una vibrante
Biblia de Barrabs, con todo lo que eso puede significar. Hasta se le
poda encontrar un sitio entre los ofitas, grupo gnstico que tenda a
venerar a los poderes satnicos, entre los que podra hallarse el
mismsimo Satans.
c. Pero una vez que venimos a la verdad (un Evangelio de Bernab)
el resto de las cosas parece aclararse perfectamente, segn las
mismas fuentes.
((En la imagen: Evangelio de Bernab que ahora se presenta en
Turqua como propaganda cristiana a favor del Islam))
d. El texto no proviene de la
actual Turqua (aunque hubiera
sido posible), sino de Egipto
(quiz de la Genizah de El
Cairo) y estaba en manos de
ladrones profesionales e
internacionales, de los que roban y
venden manuscritos para hacerse ricos al venderlos (el tema es bien
conocido; todos los especialistas saben el trfico de manuscritos,
encontrados o inventados, desde el descubrimiento de Qumrn en
adelante).
e. Ese evangelio (no Biblia) de Bernab aparece en todos los
manuales de Introduccin al texto y manuscritos (con apcrifos) de la
Biblia y puede originarse en el mismo siglo V dC.
f. Parece que el Evangelio Apcrifo de Bernab contena una
reelaboracin de la famosa profeca de Jess en Jn 1416, donde l anuncia la llegada de un Parclito que completar su
obra. Tampoco hay nada de misterio en ello, porque esa profeca
utilizada y aplicada a s mismo por Mani, el fundador de los
maniqueos (en el siglo III dC).
g. Una profeca de ese tipo ha sido reutilizada por muchos
grupos gnsticos y de un modo especial por el mismo
Mahoma-Muhammad, que se considera a s mismo (al menos
implcitamente) como el parclito-profeta prometido por
Jess. Por eso, un evangelio de este tipo ha corrido entre los
musulmanes, como profeca de la llegada de Mahoma, el ltimo
profeta, anunciado por Moiss y por el mismo Jess. Yo mismo he
desarrollado expresamente ese tema en varios libros (sobre todo el
Moiss, Jess, Muhammad. Monotesmo y globalizacin, Verbo Divino,
Estella 2002).
h. La novedad hispana est en que un Evangelio de Bernab
(con la profeca de la llegada de Mahoma) ha sido escrito por
un granadino converso (un morisco), en el siglo XVI, para mostrar
la superioridad de Mahoma sobre Jess. Pueden encontrarse datos en
But hang on. How many gold letter Syriac Bibles are there sloshing
round smuggling rings in Turkey and Cyprus? Havent we seen this
before?
Anyway, those who want some facts can look at the images in this
news report.
The photo starts by homing in on the word Amen halfway down the
left hand page. As it scrolls over the wording above it is clear that it is
Matthew, we get the sequence:
[dn]trwn klm dpqdt[kwn]
n mkwn n kl[hwn]
[yw]mt dm lwlm[h]
that they should keep all that I have commanded [you]
I am with you all
[da]ys until the end [of]
Its just plain Peshitta.
Now are my eyes deceiving me or does the last line of the colophon
they show say something about in the year 1,500 of our Lord?
bnt lp whmm dmrn
If so, the media dating is only out by a millennium, but Im not sure of
my reading at this stage.
The pointed Nestorian script is the giveaway that were not dealing
with something 1,500 years old.
It is puzzling that if the end of Matthew is on the left hand page, the
right hand page should be blank. Also with only two verses appearing
on this page of Matthew (28:19-20) there is certainly no way this
manuscript has enough pages to contain the four gospels and no way
that the whole of Matthew could occur to the right. Moreover, its odd
that all the writing is grouped on the right hand side of the page.
These are features which would make me think of it as a modern
forgery. Why go to the effort of using gold and yet have the
appearance on the page so irregular and the margins so uneven?
Anyway, anyone who would pay $28,000,000 for this ought to
consider doing the world a favour by buying up some toxic debt
instead.
Any more observations?
Update:
I see that Michael Law got there first on reading the 1,500 years and
in suspecting a forgery.
Possible arguments in favour of forgery could be failure to distinguish
beth and kaph; the angle of the nun in year, the page layout, the line
spacing, the gold, the criminal context, the release with such hype.
This sort of thing could happen when someone is copying a text
without really knowing the language.

What is up with the gold ink? Do we have any authentic manuscripts
from the first millennium in gold ink? My guess is that Turkish forgers
favor this ink, because it is visible on their leather pages which are so
dark. For parchment, they are apparently taking remnants from old
couches and jackets, and running them through the washing machine
a few times. In this case, however, it appears that their Syriac script
(although anachronistic) is at least somewhat skillfully executed.

I saw this over at Christian Post a couple of days ago. Its clearly not
from the 500s. Perhaps we are seeing two things here:
(1) A side-effect of a growing awareness (on the part of forgers)that
someone wealthy is building a huge collection of Bibles and Biblerelated stuff.
(2) The infiltration of Islamic apologists into some news-organizations
that accept freelance work. (What else explains the reference to the
Gospel of Barnabas?) This is not the first thing Ive seen that could
be considered evidence of what appears to be a campaign by Islamsupporting writers, disguised as journalists, to cast aspersion upon
the NT text by announcing news of discoveries that are supposed to
somehow draw it into question (and thus vindicate Islamic claims that
the Injil has been corrupted, blah, etc., blah).
Yours in Christ,

Some questions:
1) Are there any authentic examples of Syriac dating using a year of
our Lord formula?
if yes':
2) Do the Syriac churches of Eastern Turkey retain manuscripts (or did
they, before hooligans made off with them) that could have served as
exemplars?
