  • Does John of Patmos accept the Gospel of Jesus?

    Does John of Patmos accept the Gospel of Jesus?
    Nov 19 2024

    The book of Revelation is by far the most violent book of the New Testament.

    The blood-soaked narrative calls for the death and destruction of non-believers and even of many Christians. Some Christians over the reveled in the horrific torments and the rivers of blood described in the book; but what would the historical Jesus have thought of it?

    Would the Savior who instructed his followers to love their neighbors, to give up all their worldly possessions for those in need, and to care deeply for strangers and outcasts? have been on board with the wholesale slaughter of those who don’t fit the mold? Let’s find out!

  • The Incredible Gospel of Judas (Iscariot)

    The Incredible Gospel of Judas (Iscariot)
    Nov 12 2024

    How would you respond if I told you that, actually, Judas was the only disciple who understood what Jesus was doing on earth? Or that I said that Jesus is unrelated to the God who created the world? Or that the God who created the world is not the same as the one who created humans?

    From a modern Christian point of view, those are blasphemous statements - some more so than others, yet they are all paraphrasing an early Christian Gnostic text, known as the Gospel of Judas. Join us today on Misquoting Jesus to find out more about this surprising, esoteric gospel, and to learn the secrets of the world according to the Gnostics.

  • Did Paul Actually Write the Pauline Epistles?

    Did Paul Actually Write the Pauline Epistles?
    Nov 5 2024

    Writings attributed to the apostle Paul make up a large swathe of the New Testament, and have been of fundamental importance in the development of Christian theology.

    However, there are some serious questions over whether Paul actually wrote everything attributed to him. What texts do scholars think are not as…legitimate as they could be, and what texts do experts think were actually written by the man himself?

historical background

I really enjoy listening to the history and politics of those days. not sure why Bart doesn't believe in God but he certainly knows the new testament forward and backwards.

I'm a Dr. SupErhman Super Fan

I read my first Dr. Ehrman book about 15 years ago, and I have read everything he's written since. While he didn't cause my own personal transition away from Christianity, his scholarship, knowledge, and ease of explanation made me feel comfortable about my transition. Even for a devotee like me, I have learned from this podcast.

Thank you, Bart, for sharing this knowledge.

This really is must listen radio for anyone living in the Western side of the world. Want to know why? Listen and find out!

A podcast worth listening to for a deeper understanding of Jesus & the Bible

Dr. Erhman provides a knowledgeable guide to a complex, highly fragmented religion. The podcast, hosted by Megan Lewis provides a deep dive into Christianity & the Bible - a subject that has influenced our past, present & likely future. Highly recommended.

An excellent talk on the NRSVue

Jennifer Knut was on the committee that updated the NRSV, already the standard academic English version of the Bible. She talks about the word duos (slave/servant), as well as the problems the committee faced.

Fascinating podcast based on historical information

Dr. Ehrman provides a deep historical knowledge-based and logical approach to biblical stories. It’s a must listen for anyone exploring what facts are available from 2 millennia ago and the investigation into the circumstantial data to determine the events that most likely occurred and what was believed at that time.

My favorite religious studies podcast. Actually my favorite anything podcast.

I’ve read & listened to dozens of religious scholars and Bart Ehrman is my absolute favorite. I’ve read everything he’s written but these conversations are just something you can’t get in a book. Highly recommend for people on the whole religious spectrum. It’s definitely in depth on topics you won’t get from any pew. And the current research discussed is great for atheists, agnostics, and even, or especially, practicing Christians who want to understand the history and context of the book that shaped western civilization and our current culture.

Excellent and knowledgeable

Bart presents the latest scholarship about the Bible and Jesus in a way that’s clear to the general public. He is neither pro nor anti Christian. He is so popular because he is so reliable.

Not Christian

False . His opinion is clearly secular deception. He is making his best effort to deny everything Christian's believe to be true.
