Publisher's Description

How accurate is the historical information in the New Testament Were any writers of New Testament books eyewitnesses? Is the New Testament a myth? How biased were the writings of first-century Christians? Isthere any information apart from Christians sources? How soon after Jesus' death were the New Testament documents written? Were errors introduced as manuscripts were copied and translated through the centuries? These are thequestions Paul Barnett tackles in this clear and straightforward book. He considers how reliable the New Testament documents are in light of the evidence and standard methods of historical research. The answers will prove enlightening to anyone interested in the trustworthiness of the New Testament.
