About this title: Featuring vibrant full color throughout, this new edition of Bart Ehrman's highly successful introduction approaches the New Testament from a consistently historical and comparative perspective, emphasizing the rich diversity of the earliest Christian literature. Rather than shying away from the critical problems presented by these books, Ehrman addresses the historical and literary challenges they pose, showing why scholars continue to argue over such significant issues as how the books of the New Testament came into being, when they were written (and by whom), what they mean, how they ...

"Any serious student of the Bible would be well-advised to begin with this classic textbook of the New Testament's historic beginnings. absolutely fascinating, Bart Ehrman is a great professor and writer--must read for Divinity students and novices alike."
"Although obviously centered on Ehrman's kind of scholarship--literary-historical--this is the best book of its kind that I have seen. I'm 80 and out of teaching now, but I would unhestitatingly adopt it as my basic text were I to teach again.
"Interesting introduction to the New Testament. Looks at the book from a historical approach, mixed with some literary criticism, and socio-cultural perspectives. An engaging textbook style introduction to "the book" of Western civilization."
"This was the first of many Ehrman books I read. It was required for my Intro to NT course.
To put it simply: I LOVE Bart D. Ehrman. I had the pleasure of watching him in a debate that was held at my college. He was just as brilliant in person, and thinking on his feet, as he is in his writing. This is a great commentary on the New Testament, and will definitely give people a stronger understnding of the NT. Highly recommended (and would recommend other Erhman books).
Note: Ehrman's strong focus on the historical facts and evidence may trouble some. Erhman is a Biblical scholar -- that means that he is a historian and not a theologian."
