Tell No Man
Jesus had just spoken to the multitude on the mountain where he delivered the Sermon on the Mount and came down the mountain and a man with leprosy asked to be clean and Jesus cleanses him and says the following:
Matthew 8:1-4
1When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him.
2And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
3And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
4And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
What happened to the multitudes that at that time were following him as stated in Matthew 8:1 just two verses preceeding? Since we are reading about it in Matthew
obviously someone knew!
Are priests not men?
Or is there “another reason” for this strange request?
What are these strange requests about- to Tell No Man when obviously they did tell men and also purposefully recorded their strange ”Tell No Man” statements in the bible?
Again in Matthew Jesus tells his disciples to tell no man,
but this time
that he was Jesus the Christ
Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
Could it be that he wasn’t the real Jesus the Christ,
but An imposter?
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
Why?
This does not make sense!
By the way, these Tell No Man requests are not in the Gospel of John!
And he charged them that they should tell no man:
but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it;
Now come on,
if this is the Son of God don’t you think he would know that they would publish it?
This is an imposter—- a made up version of Jesus Christ!
The real Jesus Christ is the spirit of prophecy.
He would know that they would publish it!
Why the pretense?
This is a mock of the real Jesus Christ! A facade.
In other words, an image. A deceptive image!
And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.
And as they came down from the mountain, he charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of man were risen from the dead.
And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.
And her parents were astonished: but he charged them that they should tell no man what was done.
Luke 9:21-23
21And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing; 22Saying, The Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day.23And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and and take his cross daily, and follow me.
Wait a minute, if you don’t tell them, how will they come?
This is nonsensical!

Note:
The Gospel of John
does not
include this same antithesis, Tell No Man!
Nor does Jesus of the Gospel of John tell his followers to deny themselves, etc.
A nomen indicates which gens a Roman belongs to. A gens is a loose collection of families sharing the same nomen. It is the middle part of the tria nomina, i.e., the three-part Roman name.
Here is a strange coincidence:
Acts 23:16-22
16And when Paul’s sister’s son heard of their lying in wait, he went and entered into the castle, and told Paul.17Then Paul called one of the centurions unto him, and said, Bring this young man unto the chief captain: for he hath a certain thing to tell him.18So he took him, and brought him to the chief captain, and said, Paul the prisoner called me unto him, and prayed me to bring this young man unto thee, who hath something to say unto thee.19Then the chief captain took him by the hand, and went with him aside privately, and asked him, What is that thou hast to tell me?20And he said, The Jews have agreed to desire thee that thou wouldest bring down Paul to morrow into the council, as though they would enquire somewhat of him more perfectly.21But do not thou yield unto them: for there lie in wait for him of them more than forty men, which have bound themselves with an oath, that they will neither eat nor drink till they have killed him: and now are they ready, looking for a promise from thee.
22So the chief captain then let the young man depart,
and charged him,
See thou tell no man
that thou hast shewed these things to me.
Same Lingo: charged them / tell no man
as in the 3 Synoptic Gospels
(Matthew, Mark and Luke)!
Now, who wrote the Synoptic gospels?
It is pretty obvious!
Sounds like the same person who wrote Acts
wrote quite a bit of the Synoptic gospels
of Matthew, Mark and Luke!
Weird, huh!
The writer of these Tell No Man phrases is mocking the Gospel of John when he said No Man in many verses. It is obvious that the authors of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, the Book of Acts and so forth
(in their deep hate and their evil insanity)
had the Gospel of John
to degrade in every way they could!
Remember when Peter escaped from prison went to another place after James was killed and Herod died. Then Saul turned into Paul after fulfilling their mission and both Paul and Barnabus took Mark? Per chance they meant the book of Mark and not the man or both. Maybe that was their mission. Because Mark would not work they added a few more gospels. Barnabus and Paul had problems so Barnabus took Mark to Cyprus.
Why do you suppose the real Jesus Christ threw out the money changers in the temple,
if he did not want people to know about him?
Why would he raise Lazarus from the dead if he did not want people to know about him?
Why would he enter Jerusalem on a colt of an ass and have people laying down palms and believing in him
if he did not want us to know about him?
Why would he feed the multitudes if he did not want anyone to know about him?
Why would he have disciples if he did not want people to know about him?
Why would he heal people of their infirmities if he did not want people to know about him?
Why would he raise himself from the dead if he did not want people to know about him?
Why would Jesus come
if he did not want people to know about him?
John 12:19 ……..
“behold, the world is gone after him.”
Obviously, he wanted the people to know about him!
And I believe he came to confront an imposter…
the Thorn
so that we would be able to recognize who He is!
Why do the Synoptic Gospels seem so confused and confusing ……
Maybe the intention of the authors of those gospels is to confuse.

John 2:23-25
23Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.24But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,25And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.
John 3:31-33
31He that cometh from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaketh of the earth: he that cometh from heaven is above all.32And what he hath seen and heard, that he testifieth;
and no man receiveth his testimony.
33He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal
that God is true.
==================================================
The true Messiah Jesus Christ wanted people to know about Him!
(Even before he was raised from the dead)
How would people believe
if he did not have witnesses?
John 11:41-42
41Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid.
And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42And I knew that thou hearest me always:
but because of the people which stand by I said it,
that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
Again, the Synoptic gospels of Matthew and Mark do not have this event of the
raising of Lazarus in their gospels.
Only the gospel of John!
However the Gospel of Luke does tell another story of Lazarus.
.Jesus Christ did not go around telling everyone to
tell no man
He wanted us to know!
John 12:17-19
17The people therefore that was with him when he called Lazarus out of his grave, and raised him from the dead,
bare record.
18For this cause the people also met him, for that they heard that he had done this miracle.1
9The Pharisees therefore said among themselves, Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing?
behold, the world is gone after him.
Who is ye?
Prevail
1. To be greater in strength or influence; triumph: prevailed against the enemy.

THE THORN
in the above verse was so jealous of Jesus because he raised Lazarus from the dead and that the people believed in Him. Luke, Paul, and his friends ravaged the Gospel of John with the other gospels and Acts, and so forth. There are so many, many examples of the antithetical verses against the gospel of John and the truth about Jesus Christ.
Maybe that is why Paul says in the following verses:
1 Corinthians 16:21
The salutation of me Paul with mine own hand.Galatians 6:11
Ye see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.2 Thessalonians 3:17
The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.Philemon 1:19
I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.Because Paul is lying to cover up the fact that Paul is also the writer of these antithetical scriptures against the Gospel of John and the truth and wants us to follow him instead of the true Jesus Christ as he attempts to do in his writings using the name of Jesus Christ for his own
BENEFIT!
Otherwise why would Paul say “in mine own hand“? He could just sign off as Paul but he adds “in mine own hand.”

John 4:22-24
22Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.23But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.24God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
DO NOT WORSHIP the Shroud of Turin, NOR the Pope, NOR any Institution, NOR the Bible, NOR the Torah, NOR the book of Catechism, NOR Mary, NOR the Temple, NOR any shrine, NOR any Bishop, or Priest, or apostle, NOR any book, man, religion or beast, NOR icon, NOR idol, NOR relic, NOR the Eucharist!
Why would Jesus Christ the true Messiah tell everyone he met to tell NO MAN?
It’s ridiculous!
He did not come to us to bewilder us or to hide who he was….
what would be the point?
He wanted us to know Him, perceive Him, hear Him, see Him, and to believe in Him. The TRUE Jesus Christ wanted us to know the Father through Him so that we might have life in His Name! He was not trying to hide like a criminal as the Synoptic gospels would have you believe. He didn’t come just so that the priests might know him. He did not come just so the upper class might have access to him. He did not come just for Kings and Queens or for a privileged few as in Luke 10:24 above would have you believe. He came for the world because:
John 3:16
16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
The reason that Jesus Christ came to Israel and not to another country is because it is the God of Israel that is His Father!
The Father of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
John 8:57-59
57Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?
58Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
59Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself,
and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

But the Synoptic Jesus said:
And Jesus saith unto him, See thou tell no man; but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

Get the drift?
This is the ANOTHER Reason!
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Obviously, there are two different Jesus’s written about in the New Testament!
The Synoptic Jesus and the Jesus in the Gospel of John.
Since the Synoptic Gospel seems so dysfunctional, confusing and scattered in comparison to the Gospel of John, who should we believe?
Obviously, we should believe the Gospel of John which does not have Jesus going about telling the multitudes to tell no man about him knowing that the would tell about him.
