Response: yeah sort of, but that's not uncommon for a book to have a different writing style. Why? because a lot of times scribes would write down a lot of things that was said instead of the apostles themselves. You see this in Jeremiah, and in some of Peters books so its no big deal. But if this not what your professor is talking about find out. I'd love to see it. Also a lot of times these arguments are subjective in nature such as the JEPD, you know they say that Moses did'nt write the Torah because of different writting styles in it, they do the same to Isaiah with verse 1-39 and 40-66 calling it a Duetero- Isaiah in this case the burden of proof is on them. So ask your professor what proof does he have of this ( in a nice way). And check it out. A lot of times these professors speak dogmatically about things like there fact but sometimes there not.
