当世界级的圣经学者巴特·埃尔曼第一次开始研究圣经原文时,他惊讶地发现,早期的译者犯了许多错误和刻意的改动。在《误引耶稣》一书中,埃尔曼讲述了古代抄写员对《新约》的错误和改动背后的故事,并展示了他们对我们今天使用的圣经产生的巨大影响。他以个人的思考为框架,讲述了他对希腊手稿的研究是如何让他放弃了曾经对圣经持极端保守态度的观点。自从印刷机的出现和文本的准确复制以来,大多数人都认为当他们阅读新约时,他们阅读的是耶稣话语或圣保罗著作的一模一样的副本。然而,在近1500年的时间里,这些手稿都是由深受当时文化、神学和政治争议影响的抄写员手工抄写的。在现存的手稿中,错误和故意修改的情况比比皆是,这使得原文难以重建。埃尔曼第一次揭示了这些变化是在哪里以及为什么做出的,以及学者们如何尽可能接近地重建新约中的原始词语。埃尔曼提出了一个具有挑衅性的案例,即我们珍视的许多圣经故事和广泛持有的关于耶稣的神性、三位一体和圣经本身的神圣起源的信仰源于抄写员的故意和意外修改--这些修改极大地影响了圣经的所有后续版本。
When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In "Misquoting Jesus," Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.
