The problems with the Bible that New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman discussed in his bestseller Misquoting Jesus—and on The Daily Show with John Stewart, NPR, and Dateline NBC, among others—are expanded upon exponentially in his latest book: Jesus, Interrupted.
This New York Times bestseller reveals how many books in the Bible were not written by their traditional authors, and that the New Testament itself is filled with conflicting accounts about Jesus—information that scholars of biblical criticism know... but the general public does not. If you enjoy the work of Elaine Pagels, Marcus Borg, John Dominic Crossan, and John Shelby Spong, you'll find much to ponder in Jesus, Interrupted.
This landmark work unpacks the provocative questions that scholars have debated for centuries but are rarely discussed outside the seminary.
