THEY Rewrote the ENTIRE THING | Bart D. Ehrman

Bart's new course "The Scribal Corruption of Scripture: How The Bible Was Changed And How Readers May Never Know," delves into the heart of one of the most crucial questions for those interested in the Christian religion: How can we be sure we have the original writings of the New Testament?

In a world where the first copies made by the authors have been lost to time, and we possess only hand-written copies of copies, often created centuries later, this course explores the authenticity of the New Testament texts.

While these lectures draw inspiration from Bart's best-selling book, there's no need to have read it to fully appreciate this course. Instead of simply rehashing the book's content, Bart will take a novel approach to essential questions, introducing fresh examples and diverse arguments to delve into the complexities of deciphering the original New Testament writings from surviving manuscripts.

I remember being taught the Bible isn’t a buffet. Where you pick and choose what you want out of it. Meanwhile scribes would pick and choose how to copy a manuscript.

[charleshines]

The thing that I find infuriating about the whole thing is that people are bent on believing the lies and they would say that the Bible has never changed.

[stevenbolin]

Always love hearing from Dr Bart, so direct and eye opening information.❤

[dylanjames]

Love your show! Bart is an amazing scholar! I've learned so much. Thanks for putting this content out there!

[markray]

Thanks Derek for hosting Bart and all your choices for interviews. This makes your program most interesting and enjoyable.

[jmike]

Derek, your continued passion to feed us this information from the top scholars in academia is so precious to so many of us. Thank you again so much.

[ardalla]

Good questions by Derek. Good answers by Bart. Impressive. I don't usually listen to Bart, but this is worth paying attention to. Nothing he hasn't said before ... but still.

[Amor-Fati.]

I enjoy Barts lectures and debates. I look forward to getting this. I am a truth seeker, and although I left Christianity, I always like to know the How and Why. The past can always teach us how to handle the future

[BilaamsDonkey]

Closing comments well-said. It’s important for everyone.

[cecileroy]

I have several of his books - they're fascinating!!! Thanks for this excellent channel!!!

[dannyhardesty]

Will be tied up Nov. 11th on another commitment. Hope Dr. Ehrman makes the lectures available as "on demand" streams down the road--more than happy to pay for those!

I love listening to Bart. I could never understand why p eople are wedded to the doctrine of the trinity. I was 10 when after a Sunday service I asked my Presbyterian minister to please explain the trinity for me. He said "it cannot be explained, it's a mystery and you've just got to believe it".

[royalcreations]

Dr. Bart is a great start regarding these issues. I would add the fact we need to also look at the Aramaic language for deeper understanding. Example: How do we know Marcion was wrong thinking Jesus wasn't human? The Aramaic idiom "Son of Man" means "an ordinary human being." "Son of God" is an Aramaic idiom meaning "a meek peaceful person." Early Western scholars didn't know or understand Aramaic and made up their own ideas to compensate their ignorance. And they came up with dogmas and theologies to rationalize what they simply couldn't grasp. The Trinity as we're taught came about in and after 325A.D. Jesus and his followers never taught that.

[Dr_Tripper]

Interesting enough of an interview to seek a more intellectual, docu-centric presentation. Thank you for sharing.

The background music is my favorite OST from Skyrim; It's so relaxing and atmospheric...

[glowheat]

As a Christian, I really enjoy your videos. I could listen to Bart Ehrman all day. I only wish the church would do as well.

DIRECT BART QUOTES:

“The position I argue for in Misquoting Jesus does not actually stand at odds with Prof. Metzger’s position that the essential Christian beliefs are not affected by textual variants in the manuscript tradition of the New Testament.”

“We can reconstruct the original text of the New Testament with reasonable, though not complete, accuracy. The vast majority of changes found in our early Christian manuscripts have nothing to do with theology or ideology. Far and away, the most common changes are simple slips of the pen, errors in copying.”

“The more I studied the manuscript tradition of the New Testament, the more I realized just how radically significant it was that we have thousands of copies. The New Testament is far better attested than any other book from antiquity in terms of the number of surviving manuscripts.”

“With the abundance of manuscripts that we have, scholars are able to reconstruct the original text with a high degree of accuracy, even if we can’t always be absolutely certain about every word.”

[pbohearn]

Catholic Church kept the Bible in Latin and the Mass too to keep the people ignorant

[sacredsoundtherapy]

ive known it in my heart for years, no one had to tell me, i felt it and just knew it, its great top see people coming forth with evidence

[m.a.]

Der Kurs klingt spannend. Schade, dass er nicht allgemein zugänglich ist und nur auf englisch. Die Thematik ist brisant und aktuell, will man den christlichen Glauben ernst nehmen und nicht einfach nur vor sich hin frömmeln wie es Fromme tun. Danke euch beiden.
