Very fine article. And Mike Licona is a very respected Christian apologist. Newsweek’s choice in selecting writers is why they are no longer in print. They have no credibility.

Ultimately, the only rebuttal necessary is: It’s Newsweek.

My wife and I watched Ehrman’s videos on the New Testament several years ago as published by The Teaching Company. We only watched the first several videos as we both concluded that Ehrman was a charlatan. It was stressful just watching those videos which were so full of baloney. In my opinion, he is no Christian. He is a man whom I doubt believes that Jesus is the Son of God. The real tragedy is the the University of North Carolina employs him as a professor in their Theology department.

The shroud of Torrin is what they claim he was buried in. They have tried every way to disprove it and failed. There is no other explanation to how the image was created.

“Yet in Luke 3:23, Eli (the father of Mary) is listed as the father of Joseph.....”
Cathoic tradition says the parents of Mary were Joachim and Anna. I believe this comes from some of the early books which did not make it into the Bible.

Newsweek folds at the end of the year.
Unless the print edition comes back from the dead in a few days, count this as a victory.

I would also suggest everyone interested in this topic read Dr. Daniel Wallace’s refutation of Bart Ehrman’s book “Misquoting Jesus”. You can find it at the link below.

When will they be so inquisitive about Obama’s history?

Ehrman also mentions the common problem of the two seemingly contradictory genealogies of Jesus (Matthew 1 vs. Luke 3). It's difficult, but not insurmountable. The short answer is that Matthew tells the nativity story from Joseph's perspective and does the same with the genealogy. Luke tells Mary's story and includes the annunciation and the Magnificat (Mary's song). The genealogy in Luke is believed to be that of Mary. gosh--i thought this explanation was common knowledge by now... how does Dr. Ehrman not know this?

Dr. Bart D. Ehrman needs to know the Truth or he will be with the others who hang their heads in shame when Jesus returns.
