  • Summary

  • A recent peer-reviewed paper critically examines an argument made by biblical scholar Richard Bauckham that the distribution of names in the Gospels matches what we'd expect if they were based on eyewitness testimony. It points out flaws in Bauckham's data and analysis, and presents new statistical tests showing his conclusions don't follow from the data. Authors Kamil Gregor @kamilgregor and Brian Blais join me to discuss.
