Some critics of the Holy Bible claim that Matthew false and mistakenly attributed a prophecy from Zechariah 11:13 to the prophet Jeremiah (cf. Matt. 27:9-10). Here I will cite the lengthy refutation to this argument from Dr. Michael L. Brown’s book, Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus, Volume

WORSHIPING THE ETERNAL CREATOR

In this post I will be summing up the points found in a plethora of my articles/rebuttals in support of Jesus Christ being identified the eternal Creator and Sustainer of all creation. Obviously, this is to be understood in the context of his being the uniquely begotten Son of
