Title: Scholarship lacking.
Review: Disappointing. This is way too off the cuff for a subject that needs objective treatment. Poorly written and not well documented. Short on specifics. If you want to know about this period, see the books of Ehrman or Pagels.Doesn't satisfy anyone who wants to seek knowledge.It is written more like a speach than an essay.Only 4 pages of works cited. No footnotes. Few parenthetical links.This would get a D grade in Theology 101.I think I agree with what he says, but could not support that view as he documents it.Definitly not a book to refute Bible Thumpers with.Choose any of the books by Bart Ehrman, if you are interested in this subject. Ehrman is more objective and coherent.
