Praise for this book
"If one likens the shelves of basic Bible textbooks to a rock-strewn landscape, then Ehrman's The Bible is a gem. Oxford's price on this text is fair, reasonable, and easily the best buy among comparable texts. The Bible is a true value. For its unsurpassed accessibility and exceptional value, buy it and use it."--Wayne C. Kannady, Newberry College"In The Bible, Bart Ehrman does a fantastic job of covering the material in a clear and engaging manner that does as much justice as possible both to its breadth and its details. I praise the inclusion of pedagogical suggestions in the Instructor's Manual; Ehrman's provision of these is simply wonderful."--James F. McGrath, Butler University"The Bible is a high-quality work of current scholarship and thoughtful presentation. The textbook presents a wealth of information in a style that engages students and encourages them to go to the primary text."--Kim Williams Bodenhamer, Baylor University
