Jesus, Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible & Why We Don't Know About Them

Bart Ehrman, a New Testament scholar, argues that the Bible contains contradictions that most readers never see, and that these are explained by modern historical-critical scholarship. He shows how the gospels give different accounts of Jesus' life and death, how some letters attributed to Paul were probably written by others, and how the books of the New Testament were chosen. He writes in clear language and relates how his own faith changed as he studied.

It is aimed at general readers, both believers and skeptics, who want to learn what scholars actually say about the Bible. Readers will get a short course in textual criticism and the history of early Christianity.

Balanced in tone; a moderate read.
