Leolaia,
I?m sorry for what happened... it?s so frustrating! I noticed, when it happens to me, I have a short span of time in which I can write a common text again pretty easily. But 5 hours, with fresh research and references... it just sucks.
However, I hope you don?t cut down your contribution too drastically, because it is highly appreciated by a wide variety of people and from a number of standpoints.
As for the use of paradidômi in John 19:30, it?s noteworthy that the verb occurs everywhere in GJohn for the ?handing over? of Jesus (by Judas, the Jews, Pilatus... 6:64,71; 12:4; 13:2,11,21; 18:2,5,30,35,36; 19:11,16; 21:20). But it can also recall the use of pneuma as the object of didômi in 3:34, or lambanô in 7:39; 14:17 ? and especially the so-called Johannine Pentecost of 20:22: Jesus said to them again, "Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, so I send you." When he had said this, he breathed on them and said to them, "Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.? So 19:30 IMO may also be understood along the line of Johannine tradition (paradôsis), according to the various stages of Paraclete theology.
About the empty tomb, I?m pretty convinced by your analysis of Luke. My guess is that a revelation story before Jesus? body may also have merged with an ?empty tomb? story implying a real ?spiriting away? of Jesus? body (resulting from an action of the disciples or Joseph, or still someone else, as the slanderous [which way?] tradition in Matthew about the tomb guards suggests); let?s also remember the very strange question appearing both in Mark 15:44ff and John 19:33 whether Jesus was already dead...).
About the Eucharist, I fully agree with one root of this tradition being sapiential. I suspect it may be traced as least as far back as Dame Wisdom?s banquet in Proverbs 9, and this would agree very well with the Q tradition. But every river has a lot of sources...
Thanks again for everything,
Narkissos
