Studies in the Textual Criticism of the New Testament - Paperback

by Bart D. Ehrman (Author)

In one volume, this book presents contributions to the textual criticism of the New Testament made over the past twenty years by Bart Ehrman, one of the premier textual scholars in North America. The collection includes fifteen articles and six lectures on a range of topics of central importance to the field. This book will be of vital interest to any scholar or advanced student of the New Testament and early Christianity. It will make an
ideal companion volume for Bart Ehrman's ground-breaking study, The Orthodox Corruption of Scripture: The Effects of Early Christological
