What are some good sources of information on the historical Jesus?

>>1625292
The Bible.

>>1625292

Our very own Constantine, who will reveal sacred mysteries such as the Anal Birth of Jesus.

Just read some Bart Ehrman.

He's probably the foremost scholar in the area. Incredibly influential throughout academia while also producing enjoyable work meant for laymen. Don't talk shit nigga

He's a literal retard who's been refuted every time he opened his mouth.

Not him but Erhman and White agree on literally %99 of the issues, unless you are talking abotu very very very spesific things it is absurd to put white or ehrman over one another.
for example:
>>1625403
>>1625303
Bible is the most important literally source, with few brief mentions from autohrs like Josephus and Tacitus, even Ehrman confirms this in his TTC lecture about New Testament.

>>1625552
Yes, but you need people like Reza Aslan and Bart Ehrman to explain the context of the Bible

>>1625556
It's the infallible word of God

>>1625560
luther pls

>>1625577
>denying inerrancy
This is what papists actually believe

>>1625580
>this book tells me it is the infallible word of god
>must be true

>>1625585
You're not Christian.

>>1625591
You are absolutely right
However
>every anon is the same anon

>>1625580
why are there so many fundies on this board?

>>1625600
Is "fundie" some codeword for Christian bible believer?

>>1625600
because internet-pc became popular
10 years ago they were in jesus camp talking about how harry potter was the devil, most didn't knew about internet in the first place. Today its far more common.

>>1625608
No its short for fundamentalist, which is a term coined originally by Christian fundamentalists

>>1625580
if god is infallible why did he need multiple conflicting gospel accounts to get the message across?

>>1625625
*tips fedora*
>>1625615
So bible believer. Good to know.

>>1625634
what denomination do you define as a christian?

>>1625600
Reaction against the fedora STEMautists

>>1625394
is this the first /lit/ meme

>>1625644
Any true believer in Jesus Christ who recognizes the Bible as the inerrant true word of God.

>>1625681
You mean /his/?

>>1625552
If you watch debates of white vs errhman, you can see how whenever errhman grills white on his knowledge of scholarship, white would often shiver and show ignorance

>>1625838
Okay, whatever you say, retard.

>>1625292

Look at what you've wrought. I hope you're proud.

>a high level of discourse is expected

>>1625292
Jesus Apocalyptic Prophet of the New Millennium by Bart Ehrman

>>1625882
I am serious

I once asked him about his misrepresentations of the church fathers via email and I included rigorous references

No reply was ever given

>>1625292
No primary sources exist. At all.

>>1625882
true, no need to be salty about it, Ehrman knows his stuff better than White.

doesn't make him score one for atheism though, its just coming from comparing the two, some thrid guy might be a christian and have a better knowledge about biblical scholarship thna Ehrman, but White certainly has not.

>>1625292
There arent really any because he barely exists as a historical figure

>>1626029
White or Ehrman?

>>1626296
The same goes for Confucius and Socrates, no?

>>1627341
Are you sure that is true for Confucious? Are you thinking of Lao zi ?

>>1627330
James White of course

I emailed him twice, no reply at all

>>1625292
