| Title: Il Testimonium Flavianum: analisi linguistica Secondary Title: Henoch Volume: 20 Pages: 153-177 Type: Journal Article Year: 1998 Abstract: Harrington, Daniel J. in: NTAb 43.3 (1999), 544: "This linguistic analysis of Josephus' Antiquities 18:63-64 serves to isolate hints of an original text that described Jesus as a charismatic man loved by his disciples, and highlights some major Christian interpolations that most probably are to be dated to the second half of the 3rd century A.D. It also concludes that Agapius' Arabic version and the Syriac versions of Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History are Christian redactions that shed no light on Josephus' original text".
Sievers, Joseph in: JSJ 30.4 (1999), 471: "The linguistic analysis of the Testimonium Flavianum highlights major Christian interpolations, which most probably are to be dated to the second half of the 3rd century. The same analysis singles out hints of an original text which describes Jesus as a charismatic man, loved by his disciples. Agapius' Arabic version and the Syriac versions of Eusebius' Historia Ecclesiastica are Christian reductions which shed no light on Josephus' original text [Journal's summary]".
