How Do Historians Evaluate the Evidence for Jesus? (Ehrman's "Did Jesus Exist?" Part 1)
This is the beginning of a series examining the historical evidence for Jesus presented in Bart Ehrman's book "Did Jesus Exist?" In this video, Adam gives an overview of how historians and scholars of ancient history evaluate the evidence we have concerning the life of Jesus.
