| Jun 2, 2017 at 12:41 | comment | added | Sola Gratia | I see. Do you have any paticularly telling instances where this is more evidently the case? It seems rather speculative to apply it to any dialogue involving those aquinted with the philosophers. | |
| Jun 1, 2017 at 23:44 | comment | added | bradimus | @SolaGratia The dialog is a literary device. Plato and Xenophon are probably the most well-known practitioners. They typically use fictional characters or have a (a caricature of a) well known proponent of a philosophy to repesent the philosophy. Trypho might be caricature of Rabbi Trafon, but the content of the dialog is not at all consistent with what we know of Trafon. | |
