Product Description

What did the "other" Scriptures followed by early Christians say? Do they exist today? How could such outlandish ideas ever be considered Christian? If such beliefs were once common, why do they no longer exist? These are just a few of the many provocative questions that arise from these 24 thrilling lectures. Join the dramatic search for lost Christianities and learn why it's considered such an appealing subject to study. These lectures focus on the remarkable fact that many of the struggles of early Christians were not against pagans or other nonbelievers but against other Christians. Professor Ehrman will introduce you to these fascinating groups, including the Ebionites (Jewish Christians who accepted a non-divine Jesus as the Messiah), the Marcionites (who believed the God of the Old Testament and the God of Jesus were different), and the Gnostics (who believed in other deities aside from the one true God). The fascinating heart of this lecture series is its exploration of the Scriptures that were read and considered authoritative by these Christian sects. They provide a fascinating opportunity to study little known and sometimes controversial Scriptures that might have become part of the Bible. You'll explore the Gnostic Gospel of Truth (one of the most powerful and moving expositions of the joy of salvation to survive from Christian antiquity), the Infancy Gospels (which describe events leading up to Jesus' birth and during his young childhood), and the Apocryphal Acts of the Apostles (which provide legendary, imaginative, and entertaining accounts of the activities of Jesus' closest followers).

    5.0 out of 5 stars Well done and interesting
    Reviewed in the United States on June 29, 2018

    This is a series of lectures on the forms of Christianity that didn’t make it into modern times. The Ebionites, Marcionites, and the Gnostics are all covered. There is also a discussion of protocol-orthodox Christianity. I would recommend you first work throughDr. Ehrman’s courses On the New Testament and one called After the New Testament for background.
    Like every other course by Brad Ehrman, this is excellent. It is clear, presented as history and not from the standpoint of religious dogma. Thus, each of the forms of Christianity finds a voice and makes its case, almost like you were a first, second or third century Pagan considering a change. Interestingly, the viewpoint of the Pagan is discussed enough detail to enable you to understand why they found Christians undesirable. How each religion considered its ties to Judaism are discussed. All in all, nicely done.

    Bart is genius in motion. He is genuine, very informed and often uses humor and irony to good effect. Such a pleasure. Very few instructors--in this case also authors--can even touch Dr. Ehrman on the Bible, Christianity, what is called Christology, and history of the ancient Near East (Middle East). Buy it.
