[Invincibly Ignorant]

A Gospel that was thought to be "pure theology is now shown to be grounded in history," he said.

This is a silly statement. Why would a geographical location have anything to do with the Gospel being grounded in history? Jerusalem, Gallilee, the Jordan river, etc.etc.etc. are mentioned in the Gospels as well. I assumed it was already grounded in history. lol

Biblical scholars are like English scholars who find hidden meanings in poetry that was never intended by the poet. Sometimes a flower is just a flower.
