For almost 1500 years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were influenced by the cultural, theological and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. He makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and beliefs stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes--alterations that dramatically affected subsequent versions.--From publisher description. 000296799 63000 $$aBible.$$pNew Testament$$xCriticism, Textual. 000296799 63000 $$aBible.$$pNew Testament$$xCriticism, Textual$$xHistory. 000296799 63000 $$aBible.$$pNew Testament$$xManuscripts. 000296799 85200 $$bgen$$hBS2325$$i.E45$$i2005 000296799 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:296799$$pGLOBAL_SET 000296799 980__ $$aBIB 000296799 980__ $$aBOOK 000296799 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
