but men moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God. (2 Pet 1:20-21) Catholic and Orthodox defenders must contradict the traditional interpretation of the Fathers (Jerome) of Mt 2:23 and their own theologians. They are therefore violating the very principle of oral tradition and the "authority of the church" to interpret scripture, that they are trying to prove.
