Abel M Bibliowicz: did you use copilot to write this draft? --Gurkubondinn (talk) 17:23, 16 April 2026 (UTC)
Hi
Trying my best to learn asap .......
I consulted copilot on a couple of questions.
Thank you for your counsel and guidance. Abel M Bibliowicz (talk) 15:48, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
Abel M Bibliowicz: was any of the text in the draft written by Copilot? --Gurkubondinn (talk) 15:53, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
No, the texts are mine. I may have consulted copilot on a certain phrase or segment, but the texts are from my books and articles. Abel M Bibliowicz (talk) 16:01, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
I thought I had done this already, but I'm leaving a standard note on your talk page with information about creating autobiographical articles. --Gurkubondinn (talk) 16:08, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

"In methodical and precise fashion Bibliowicz takes the reader through the relevant ancient Christian texts bearing on the question at hand. In so doing, he proposes an intriguing, compelling thesis. The book should prove to be a major voice in the ongoing debate." - Brooks Schramm, Professor, Biblical Studies, Lutheran Theological Seminary
"Impressive work...With this impassioned study available to us, it will no longer be possible for us to ignore the unintended ways the unthinkable came to be and still say 'we did not know.'" - Didier Pollefeyt, Professor, Faculty of Theology and Religious Studies, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, co-author of Anti-Judaism and the Fourth Gospel and Paul and Judaism

"An intrepid excursion into the Christian discourse The quest of an intellectual, a humanist Interesting and, in fact overwhelming...A timely and honest engagement of the Christian texts, authors, and scholars by a Jewish intellectual." - Burton L. Mack, Professor of Early Christianity, Claremont School of Theology, California, Author of A Myth of Innocence: Mark and Christian Origins

"The most important and comprehensive reconstruction of the origins of Christian anti-Judaism... Standing on a brilliant and insightful reconstruction of Paul, and on a quite shocking (but perhaps compelling) reading of Mark - the author offers a number of original and in some cases quite compelling theoretical reconstructions of the context and purposes of early Christian texts... a work of sublime moral passion... must be considered by every thoughtful Christian, not just by specialist and scholars." - David P. Gushee, Distinguished University Professor of Christian Ethics, Director, Center for Theology and Public Life, Mercer University, Author of Kingdom Ethics: Following Jesus in Contemporary Context
"Bibliowicz uses solid scholarship to engage large and difficult topics while managing to be balanced and clear... invites Christians to walk a deep journey towards truth ... and suggests a compelling nuance; that the conflicts in the early texts were between Jewish and Gentile followers of Jesus, not between Jews and Christians." - David L. Coppola, Professor, Executive Director, Center for Christian-Jewish Understanding, Sacred Heart University
"A meticulous study a mammoth endeavor goes beyond others in his interpretation of the evidence, tracing and documenting distinctions and tensions in the early Jesus movement." - N. A.

Allison, Jr., Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, Author of Constructing Jesus: History, Memory, and Imagination

My advice is to not write an autobiography at all. Especially not as your first (or only) contribution to Wikipedia. --Gurkubondinn (talk) 09:28, 19 April 2026 (UTC)
I will consider the suggestion to contribute to Wikipedia. I am now retired and have some discretionary time. I have checked several Wikipedia articles in my area of expertise. I identified quality, accuracy and agenda preoblems. What are the requirements for becoming a contributor?
I have edited-shortened my submission and have added links to reviews of my work. I resubmited my article.
Thanks Abel M Bibliowicz (talk) 13:59, 19 April 2026 (UTC)
I have added all the reviews of my work. The review panel "SBL Global Virtual Meeting 2023 – Review Panel". Society of Biblical Literature was dedicated to the review and discussion of my work as reflected in my first two books: Jews and Gentiles in the Early Jesus Movement (2013) and Jewish–Christian Relations: The First Centuries (see segment- Proposal Description: Review panel of invited speakers that will share their thoughts on the Bibliowicz thesis as reflected in "Jews and Gentiles in the early Jesus Movement" (Palgrave 2013) and in "Jewish-Christian Relations – The first Centuries" (Fourth ed. 2022)).Therefore, this review is mentioned as covered both books.
Thank you

My advice is still to not write an autobiography at all. If you are notable and meet the WP:NBIO criteria, then someone will write an article about you eventually. If you want to contribute to Wikipedia, then I suggest focusing on other subjects than yourself. Read WP:AUTOBIO for a fuller explanation. --Gurkubondinn (talk) 11:49, 20 April 2026 (UTC)
Done: User talk:Abel M Bibliowicz § April 2026. --Gurkubondinn (talk) 16:11, 17 April 2026 (UTC)
