No doubt the majority of my regular readers have already come across Ben Witherington’s review/critique of Bart Ehrman’s latest book but after having just read it in full I thought it necessary to suggest that others do the same. I don’t agree with every point that BW3 makes but his review is certainly informed (and long, like really really long, and it’s only part 1!). In the same manner that Misquoting Jesus spawned book-length rebuttals in the form of Misquoting Truth and Lost in Transmission, and chapter-length rebuttals in Fabricating Jesus; Reinventing Jesus; and Dethroning Jesus, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Jesus Interrupted receiving the same kind of written response. Ben’s review is already as long as some book chapters and given the speed with which he writes and his sheer ability to manufacture tons upon tons of material, I wouldn’t be surprised to see a book coming from his pen some time in the future. But until that happens (if it happens at all) go on over and check out what he’s written right now.
