Fascinating, concise and scholarly study of the oldest existing gospel texts and the changes that took place through the centuries either by human error or deliberate interference.

A great read. The biblical scholar and one time born-again Ehrman decisively demonstrates how the bible evolved over the centuries. For instance, many of christiandom's favorite stories weren't even in the oldest and best copies of the gospels. Many changes were deliberate, many accidental -- but it's conclusive that we have no idea what the originals contained.

It was a really good book. Very informational. I think he made a few leaps in logic. Sometimes his conclusions were only minimally supported by his evidence, but it was a great read, and a book i would recommend to anyone who wanted to learn the history of the Bible as we have it today

Bart Ehrman is probably a really good scholar but his writing style is kind of repetitive. Good subject though.
