"As I read your post, I have the impression you mean that to say that Jesus' genetic seed, as in sperm, did not leave him ..." and you are profoundly WRONG. I was referring to the spirit within Jesus. You see, the Bible is its own best commentary, and the concept of 'seed' is so much more than the genetic one, biblically. But then I suspect you already knew that and took this opportunity to address the strawman you wanted to attack..

[holden]

No, I was not and am not interested in attacking a strawman. It was your apparently taking that verse out of its context that brought me to a possible outlier purpose. I clearly referenced my comment as in inference.

To say--as you do--that Jesus' spirit remained within him is to say nothing unusual for any human, though Jesus did somewhat unusually in the consciousness of man explicitly give up his spirit on the cross.
