About this product
Product Information
How did Christianity become the dominant religion in the West? In the early first century, a small group of peasants from the backwaters of the Roman Empire proclaimed that an executed enemy of the state was God's messiah. Less than four hundred years later it had become the official religion of Rome with some thirty million followers. It could so easily have been a forgotten sect of Judaism. Through meticulous research, Bart Ehrman, an expert on Christian history, texts and traditions, explores the way we think about one of the most important cultural transformations the world has ever seen, one that has shaped the art, music, literature, philosophy, ethics and economics of modern Western civilisation.Product Identifiers

Another brilliant book from the Master !
Bart Ehrman continually proves his brilliance through his expert writings, his balanced analyses, always with supporting material. He is an admitted agnostic, but never projects or imposes his personal feelings and opinions into his works. Ehrman is a historian, stresses that everything he writes is from the point of view of a historian, which apparently confuses some readers. His academic background is impeccable and deeply impressive: for a man to learn Latin, Greek, Hebrew and Coptic is no little matter ! Also, of course, in his earlier years he was an ordained Christian minister, so he has that valuable experience to drawn upon. Further, his writing style is fluent, smooth, easy to follow. A great man. A great book. GREAT !Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
