Description: The problems with the Bible that New Testament scholar Bart Ehrman discussed in his bestseller *Misquoting Jesus*—and on *The Daily Show* with John Stewart, NPR, and *Dateline NBC*, among others—are expanded upon exponentially in his latest book: *Jesus, Interrupted*. This New York Times bestseller reveals how books in the Bible were actually forged by later authors, and that the New Testament itself is riddled with contradictory claims about Jesus—information that scholars know… but the general public does not.
