IF "High Priest Jeshua III" existed? Come on Will, seriously. Are you
just trying to anger me? Jeshua III ben Phabet was the High Priest of
Israel from 30 to 22 BC.


I've found temporary confirmation of the existence of a High Priest called
"Joshua ben Fabus" 30-23 BC, however no indication yet that he was a III.
When I find the source I will post the complete text.

I'm glad that you've proven it to yourself, because the rest of us who
read know he existed. To me it's almost like asking for proof of the
existence of Queen Victoria, it's a waste of time.

Since Queen Victoria is attested in tens of thousands of documents and
"Joshua Ben Fabus" (however ridiculous that name is) is attested in exactly one
single sentence .. no it's not.

You have yet to directly address the mistake you made when you said "As
anyone who read's Josephus knows...." and then proposed a genealogical line that
Josephus specifically refutes.
