Bart D. Ehrman, the New York Moments bestselling author of Jesus, Interrupted and God’s Issue reveals which books in the Bible’s New Testament were not passed on by Jesus’s disciples, but had been rather forged by various other hands-and why this centuries-hidden scandal is usually far more significant than many scholars are prepared to admit. A controversial work of historical reporting in the tradition of Elaine Pagels, Marcus Borg, and John Dominic Crossan, Ehrman’s Forged provides a sensational explication of 1 of the very most substantial-yet least discussed-problems confronting the globe of biblical scholarship or grant.
