The Masoretes & Councils

Torah, Psalms, Prophets, and Historical volumes collected and redacted into a standard reading compilation without the writings between 350 BC to 150 AD. A tradition of variants or additions develops into various schools of thought. Three different worldviews include the Jewish non-Christian, Jewish-Christian, and non-Jewish Christian. An example of this diversity is the Archbishop John II of Jerusalem’s Homily on the Encaenia of St. Sion dedicated to Bishop of Gaza combining Jewish calendar with non-Byzantine calendar.
