I heard today about a new website just starting up that seeks to address the various claims of New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman. I’ve blogged about Bart Ehrman before, so in case you don’t know who he is, go here (you’ll have to scroll down and through some pages to find the Bart Ehrman entries).
Editor’s note: broken link removed.
Hat tip to Shaun , who directed me to the fact that Ben Witherington blogged on each chapter of Bart’s book back when it came out, some years ago. The first of the series is here . I post this even though it’s well after the fact because I get a lot of...
The most recent issue of Themelios, the academic journal of the Gospel Coalition, contains a review of Matthew’s Theological Grammar: The Father and the Son. This is an important work that argues that “προσκυνέω [proskuneō] in Matthew means worship and...
We’ve interviewed Peter Gurry before on the Naked Bible podcast, and I’ve blogged some of his posts over at the Evangelical Textual Criticism blog. Peter is a bona fide New Testament textual critic, so he’s a good authority for the question posed in...

the link just goes back to the main page
it’s a new site, so there isn’t much there yet.
Would be much funnier if they called it the “Ehrman Seminar”!
very clever – and that would have been funnier!
Also worth mentioning: Ehrman’s second appearance on The Colbert Report. “If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and raises the dead like a duck, then it’s a duck.”
They have some content up now…not sure if it’s more than when this was posted, but the design of the site is one of the best I’ve seen. Thanks, Mike. Another great resource.
cool
