Did the Disciples of Jesus Die as Martyrs for their Faith? -Rabbi Tovia Singer

I have heard it in many churches growing up with my own ears. Before I ran for my life! God Bless!

You think that this is a gotcha moment but most serious Christians know this is a tradition not written in the Bible.

[plugnickle]

This is just scratching the surface.
The Red Pill moment in the Christianity Matrix. One of many to come.

[reynaldoperez]

Where does it say that Jesus is not the Messiah?

Jews can't find one verse that disproves
That Jesus is there Messiah.

Tovia, you are such a gentleman, and show so much tact in dealing with those who oppose you. I have great respect for you because of this.

THIS IS IMPORTANT because Christians often say why would Jesus' followers die for a lie. Which is a good question if it were truth and it sounds cool cuz it rhymes.

Does anyones know the music in the background ?

The end of most of the apostles is oral tradition. Rabbi knows that. It is written in the gospels that New Testament contains very little of what happened because all the books in the world would be sufficient to contain everything.

With regards to the points you have made Tovia, While the method of Paul's execution (And Peter's) are mentioned in traditions outside the New Testament (traditions which I think are true.) He nevertheless says this in 2 Timothy 4:
6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will award to me on that day, and not only to me but also to all who have loved his appearing.

This was a man who willingly and confidently went to his death for what he believed was true. Presumably the disciples had this attitude as well.

His execution was recorded by the Jewish historian Josephus. Any wise Christian already knows this.

[Jupiter]

Im Christian and I was aware the apostles deaths (except Judas) was not recorded in the bible. Im not sure why it matters though? The only death that matters is Christ's.

[shannonmitchell]

Other early evidences for the martyrdom of Paul can be found in Ignatius (Letter to the Ephesians 12:2), Polycarp (Letter to the Philippians 9:1-2), Dionysius of Corinth (Eusebius, Ecclesiastical History 2.25. 4), Irenaeus (Against Heresies 3.1. 1), The Acts of Paul, and Tertullian (Scorpiace 15:5-6).

“ Their leather bound Bible” I love it 😂

[Matthew_Scan]

Paul wrote all those letters while in Prison for his Evangelism in Rome that’s what tradition says anyway

[yod]

Yes Boss, set the record straight!
Whether the Disciples of Jesus died as martyrs for their faith.
You are going to upturn the entire Christian faith, go for it! Rabbi TS has taken up that task to bring Christians to the light...
An irony there, early Christians were Judeans...but Christians have been misguided...Contemporary Christians should revert to Judaism....

[MarkJesus]

The question in this video doesn't really disprove Christianity. It only proves that most Christians you're talking to haven't read all their own scriptures. And I whole heartedly agree.

[ssteeeeeve]

Peter or Paul, or is it in reference to both? Nevertheless, the biggest question regarding the catalyst of Christianity is what exactly did Paul encounter at Damascus? Moreover, after the resurrection, which he claimed to have witnessed, what was going on in there in Paul’s mind?

[strappedfatman]

The Apostle Paul knew his death was near in the letter to Timothy! New Living Translation
2 Timothy 4:6 As for me, my life has already been poured out as an offering to God. The time of my death is near.

[codyhook]

In the Book of Acts right after the gospels chronologically. And he said in his epistles he was imprisoned for the faith and expected to die

[dreamgina]

Rabbi, is there anything in Jewish writings about Gamaliel’s prophecy in Acts 5?
