Frasi di Bart Ehrman

Bart D. Ehrman è un accademico, biblista e filologo statunitense, specializzato in studi sul Gesù storico, storia delle origini del Cristianesimo, critica testuale del Nuovo Testamento e degli apocrifi neotestamentari.

Ricopre il ruolo di James A. Gray Distinguished Professor e di Chair of the Department of Religious Studies dell'Università della Carolina del Nord a Chapel Hill. Dopo un'iniziale adesione ad una visione fondamentalista della Bibbia secondo l'idea di un'ispirazione verbale assoluta, ha ribaltato la propria posizione contribuendo a diffondere l'idea che i testi originali del Nuovo Testamento siano stati alterati dagli scribi nel corso dei secoli per vari motivi, e che queste alterazioni abbiano influenzato e influenzino l'interpretazione del testo biblico ancora oggi.

Bart Ehrman: Frasi in inglese

“We don't even have copies of the copies of the originals, or copies of the copies of the copies of the originals. What we have are copies made later—much later.”

Bart D. Ehrman libro Misquoting Jesus

Introduction
Misquoting Jesus (2005)
Contesto: It is one thing to say that the originals were inspired, but the reality is that we don't have the originals—so saying they were inspired doesn't help me much, unless I can reconstruct the originals. Moreover, the vast majority of Christians for the entire history of the church have not had access to the originals, making their inspiration something of a moot point. Not only do we not have the originals, we don't have the first copies of the originals. We don't even have copies of the copies of the originals, or copies of the copies of the copies of the originals. What we have are copies made later—much later. In most instances, they are copies made many centuries later. And these copies all differ from one another, in many thousands of places. As we will see later in this book, these copies differ from one another in so many places that we don't even know how many differences there are. Possibly it is easiest to put it in comparative terms: there are more differences among our manuscripts than there are words in the New Testament.

“There are few things more dangerous than inbred religious certainty.”
