About this listen

 The problems with the Bible that New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman discussed in his bestseller Misquoting Jesus—and on The Daily Show with John Stewart, NPR, and Dateline NBC, among others—are expanded upon exponentially in his latest book: Jesus, Interrupted. This New York Times bestseller reveals how books in the Bible were actually forged by later authors, and that the New Testament itself is riddled with contradictory claims about Jesus—information that scholars know… but the general public does not. If you enjoy the work of Elaine Pagels, Marcus Borg, John Dominic Crossan, and John Shelby Spong, you’ll find much to ponder in Jesus, Interrupted.©2009 Bart D.

A brilliant book, well presented and enjoyable.
Very easy listening. Comes across as a fair book, not pushing any agenda and without an axe to grind. Dr Ehrman gives his own views and interpretations but makes it clear there are other views that sensible, rational and scholarly people hold. Highly recommended for Christians and others who want to improve their understanding of Jesus, the Bible and Christianity. I have listened to other books by Dr Ehrman, all extremely good.

Thoroughly recommended.

before reading this book I had specific ideas about the Bible and Christianity. this book puts the whole Christian religion, the theology behind it, the history of the Christian religion and the historical factors about Jesus into perspective. it is certainly worth the read for those who believe the Bible is the Divine work of God and also for those who don't.

well worth the read

i had recently finished re-reading the bible, and despite feeling utterly overwhelmed by the tsunami of absurdity contained within, this book helped me realise i had missed so much more... when reading the bible outside of the worldview of a devoted and unquestioning believer, your brain starts to feel like you've gone several rounds with Mike Tyson, and you will almost certainly miss quite a few points of interest. this book is the remedy for this. I will never understand the Christians faith.

Eye opener.
