Bart D. Ehrman
Acerca de esta escucha
From the late Roman Empire all the way to our own time, no continuously existing institution or belief system has wielded as much influence as Christianity, no figure as much as Jesus. Worshipped around the globe by more than a billion people, he is undoubtedly the single most important figure in the story of Western civilization and one of the most significant in world history altogether. Yet who was Jesus of Nazareth? What was he like? It's a question that's been pondered by people and groups of varying convictions for more than 2,000 years. And everyone with even the faintest knowledge, says Professor Ehrman, has an opinion - with those opinions differing not only among laypeople but even among professional scholars who have devoted their lives to the task of reconstructing what the historical Jesus was probably like and what he most likely said and did.
This series of 24 lectures from an award-winning teacher and scholar approaches the subject from a purely historical perspective, with no intention of affirming or denying any particular theological beliefs. He explains why it has proven so difficult to know about the "Jesus of history" and reveals the kinds of conclusions modern scholars have drawn about him.
He begins with a discussion of the four New Testament Gospels - our principle source of knowledge about Jesus - and other sources, explaining what they are, how they came to be written, and how biblical scholars plumb them for historical understanding, before integrating them into the historical context of Jesus' life and a scholarly reconstruction of Jesus' words and deeds in light of the best available historical methods and evidence.

Whether taken as a book of faith or a cultural artifact, the New Testament is among the most significant writings the world has ever known, its web of meaning relied upon by virtually every major writer in the last 2,000 years. Yet the New Testament is not only one of Western civilization’s most believed books, but also one of its most widely disputed, often maligned, and least clearly understood, with a vast number of people unaware of how it was written and transmitted.

Historia
In a book that took eight years to research and write, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Ehrman explores how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty Creator of all things. Ehrman sketches Jesus's transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus's followers had visions of him after his death - alive again - did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God.

Christianity didn't have to become the dominant religion in the West. It easily could have remained a sect of Judaism fated to have the historical importance of the Sadducees or the Essenes. In The Triumph of Christianity, Bart Ehrman, a master explainer of Christian history, texts, and traditions, shows how a religion whose first believers were 20 or so illiterate day laborers in a remote part of the empire became the official religion of Rome, converting some 30 million people in just four centuries.

He discusses ancient guided tours of heaven and hell, in which a living person observes the sublime blessings of heaven for those who are saved and the horrifying torments of hell for those who are damned.

The early Christian Church was a chaos of contending beliefs. Some groups of Christians claimed that there was not one God but two or twelve or thirty. Some believed that the world had not been created by God but by a lesser, ignorant deity. Certain sects maintained that Jesus was human but not divine, while others said he was divine but not human.

In this fascinating and deeply researched work, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Erhman investigates the role oral history has played in the New Testament - how the telling of these stories not only spread Jesus' message but helped shape it.

Historia
It is often said, even by critical scholars who should know better, that “writing in the name of another” was widely accepted in antiquity. But New York Times bestselling author Bart D. Ehrman dares to call it what it was: literary forgery, a practice that was as scandalous then as itis today. In Forged, Ehrman’s fresh and original research takes readers back to the ancient world, where forgeries were used as weapons by unknown authors to fend off attacks to their faith and establish their church.

"Arguably the most distinctive feature of the early Christian literature," writes Bart Ehrman, "is the degree to which it was forged." The Homilies and Recognitions of Clement; Paul's letters to and from Seneca; Gospels by Peter, Thomas, and Philip; Jesus' correspondence with Abgar, letters by Peter and Paul in the New Testament - all forgeries. To cite just a few examples.

In this highly accessible discussion, Bart Ehrman examines the most recent textual and archaeological sources for the life of Jesus, along with the history of first-century Palestine, drawing a fascinating portrait of the man and his teachings. Ehrman shows us what historians have long known about the Gospels and the man who stands behind them. Through a careful evaluation of the New Testament (and other surviving sources, including the more recently discovered Gospels of Thomas and Peter), Ehrman proposes that Jesus can be best understood as an apocalyptic prophet.

Or was Jesus such a shadowy figure - far removed from any credible historical evidence - that he bears no meaningful resemblance to the person described in the Bible?

Historia
The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

Some believed that the world had not been created by God but by a lesser, ignorant deity. Certain sects maintained that Jesus was human but not divine, while others said he was divine but not human.

It is often said, even by critical scholars who should know better, that “writing in the name of another” was widely accepted in antiquity. But New York Times bestselling author Bart D. Ehrman dares to call it what it was: literary forgery, a practice that was as scandalous then as itis today. In Forged, Ehrman’s fresh and original research takes readers back to the ancient world, where forgeries were used as weapons by unknown authors to fend off attacks to their faith and establish their church.

In a book that took eight years to research and write, leading Bible scholar Bart D. Ehrman explores how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty Creator of all things. Ehrman sketches Jesus's transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus's followers had visions of him after his death - alive again - did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God.

In Armageddon, acclaimed New Testament authority Bart D.

By turns hilarious, moving, troubling, and provocative, Armageddon presents inspiring insights into how to live our lives in the face of an uncertain future.

Fascinating
Bart Ehrman brings the skills of an historian to an analysis of Jesus as discussed in the New Testament gospels and elsewhere including in later writings about Jesus' life.
As he focuses on what can be historically determined, miracles are out of scope. This is entirely reasonable given the purpose of these lectures. Additionally, motives are examined and differences between sources scrutinised for clues to what the writer actually intended. This leads to a set of 'facts' that seems reasonably well-supported, and a set of 'facts' that cannot be accepted *based upon the available evidence*.
This is not a great course for a seriously devout Christian who does not want to entertain doubt in their faith, but provides the inquiring listener with an awful lot of interesting information that pretty much all Bible scholars can agree on as a base (again +/- miracles).

Brilliant!!!
Such a fascinating and enlightening series of lectures. Helped me to clear up decades worth of confusion in regards to Jesus and Christianity. Course would be helpful for Christians and non-Christians alike to understand the historical perspective of Jesus, his life, and his teachings. Highly recommend this- don't miss it.

Excellent, very informative
The lecture series was excellent. I really enjoyed the depth of insight and explanations provided. In particular, was helpful to hear the comparisons and contrasts to other historical figures and events which are relatively “similar” to help understand the context and setting of Jesus and his early followers.

Extremely Detailed & Informative
I really enjoyed these lectures. Professor Ehrman gives a great introduction and contextual understanding of who the Jesus Christ of history is, and what sources we can, and those that cannot, be used to understand his sayings, his life, and his teachings. It provides a very interesting and helpful paradigm for reading scripture within historian’s eye.

Standard Ehrman, Captivating Series
AT A GLANCE:
Bart Ehrman gives a standard set of lectures which will be unsurprising to anyone already familiar with his work.
CONTENT:
These are 24 roughly half-hour lectures dealing with the historical Jesus. It deals not with matters of faith and tradition but rather what historians can affirm about the man (from Ehrman's perspective). He presents the earliest biographical sources and filters them through lenses reminiscent of the Jesus Seminar, the two most prominent being the criteria of dissimilarity and of multiple attestation. He repeats himself often and sometimes retreads the same material in different lectures. For example, you can expect to hear the following sentence, repeated nearly verbatim, to set the tone for at least three lectures: "Since Jesus was a Galilean Jewish rabbi of the first century, we need to let go of our preconceived notions and examine him as he would have been seen by his followers in the context of first-century Palestinian Judaism".
NARRATOR:
Bart D. Ehrman is widely renowned as a critical professor of New Testament studies. His knowledge of textual criticism and ancient Greek is top-notch, and he finds creative ways to present his information to students. He mostly succeeds in his attempt to remain unbiased. He is relatively easy to listen to and speaks at an even pace, though stops for many "uhm" and "ahs" when he speaks off-script.
CONCLUSION:
This lecture series was delivered around 1999 and is now somewhat outdated. It is a commendable attempt to synthesize late-20th century historical Jesus scholarship, and the intervening years have allowed time for many apt responses to these ideas. I would recommend it to anyone interested in tracking the progress of historical Jesus inquiries as they have developed, and the frameworks by which they are still largely taught at universities today.

Thought provoking but…
Listening to this as a historian (though not a Biblical one) there was a lot I got out of it, especially in the first half. I have a better appreciation of the sources and theories involved in approaching Jesus as a historical figure. Dr. Ehrman sets up the pins beautifully.
When he starts knocking them down, though, he runs into the problem that the main sources for Jesus’ life are in fact the gospels. Using a defined set of criteria for assessing them as historical sources, the result is one more reasonable thesis using the same handful of sources as any other historical assessment of Jesus.
It’s not that it isn’t a defensible position, just that it is not as unassailable as it is presented. This isn’t the fault of Dr. Ehrman, just the limits of his sources.

Awesome!
What a wild ride! This is a fantastic explanation into the actual historical life of Jesus, who IMO was a real homie.

Authoritative
If you've read Reza Aslan's book on Jesus, or Bill O'Reilly's, and want to see a recognized expert on the historical Jesus at work, check this out. It's not current; comments on the audio make it clear that it was recorded pre-2000; but it's aged well, and to date remains the most comprehensive summary of the subject available on audio.
Bart Ehrman has strong opinions on the subject, and he's not shy about voicing them here. But he returns again and again to the historical evidence and to the methodologies historians have developed for dealing with that evidence. These are the footnotes Aslan left out (and the ones Bill O'Reilly, in his rush to market, never bothered to look up). Ehrman's lectures are solidly grounded and delivered with the enthusiasm of someone who loves what he's doing.
About those strong opinions. Jesus was, says Ehrman, a millennial prophet (that was, in fact, the title of one of his first books on Jesus). Jesus expected God to intervene in history in his own lifetime and bring about the Kingdom, a Kingdom in which Jesus himself expected to play a prominent role. He expected his 12 disciples to play significant but subordinate roles: in Ehrman's view, statements made by Jesus about his disciples judging people from the four corners of the earth are to be taken literally as a description of his agenda. Unfortunately - says Ehrman - Jesus was wrong, and his mission was a failure.
This isn't the Jesus most believers want to hear about, but it's the Jesus who appears from a dispassionate examination of the evidence. It's the Jesus most consistent with the work of John the Baptist who preceded him and the apostle Paul who followed him. It's the Jesus of mainstream New Testament scholarship and has been so for a hundred years.
Traditionalists aren't the only ones whose ox is gored by Ehrman. The Jesus Seminar - a group that argued Jesus was an inoffensive philosopher of the Greek Cynic persuasion - comes in for a strong dose of forensic dissection. John Dominic Crossan's reliance on the gospels of Thomas and Peter is discussed and criticized at length. Scholars who argue for a multilayered "Q" document, earlier layers of which are non-millennial, are resoundingly refuted. Over and over again, Ehrman demonstrates how the view of Jesus as a millennial prophet makes better sense of more evidence than any of the rival views.
Every statement Ehrman makes in this "great course" is backed up by citations of evidence, a clear explanation of pros and cons, and careful reasoning. I'm not sure this is the first place to look if you want an easy introduction to the subject, but if your appetite is already whetted, Ehrman will give you a well researched and coherent vision of Jesus.
(Last time I'll say this, though: Great Courses - please - enough with the canned applause already.)
