	13.07.05 - A Biblical Backgrounder 1 \| St Lukes
		It was in the children of Israelís political interest then (from around 1300 BCE) to claim that a divine promise was made to their ancestors some 500 years previously that this land would be their land, and to associate these ancestors with three Canaanite holy places.

	104 The Origins of Greek Theatre II, Classical Drama and Theatre
		Tragedy's rise was not inevitable—Else is surely right in that regard!—rather, it is a unique phenomenon, unlikely to have happened outside of Athens in the 500s BCE or without the agency of visionary men with tremendous sensitivity to the tastes and sensibilities of their day.

		The result was that, by the late sixth century BCE, Western drama had set off on its rise to prominence and prestige.

		It’s interesting to consider how the Christianity, Judaism, and the Greek symposium of the time (~200 BCE – 350 CE) were also forms of that single religion, variations on the same essential theme.
		Similarly, scholars should suspect that Gnosticism was also a form of that same theme, to a greater degree than has been acknowledged.
