Did the New Testament Authors Tell the Truth? Archaeology & Embarrassing Facts

The narratives that we find in the gospel accounts of the New Testament make numerous historical claims and statements of fact about the past. We can validate these claims against what we know about the past, such as evidence from other written sources and archaeological discoveries, to see if what we find corroborates the stories in the gospels. Also, the presence of embarrassing details in the gospel accounts lends credibility to their claims. Would you write down embarrassing facts and incidents about yourself if you were making up a story to bolster a claim to religious authority? Neither is it likely that the apostles were doing this in the gospel accounts.
