    I’m jealous of your students, but I’m glad you have made your research accessible on nearly all of these seminar topics in your books.

    Hey Bart, thanks for reminding me how wonderful your job is and how shitty mine is! Ha! 🙂

    Does Princeton no longer PhD programmes in textual criticism?

    • BDEhrman August 29, 2012 at 7:05 pmLog in to Reply

      No, not since Metzger retired in 1984.

        I find it surprising only 2 universities in the US offer doctoral programmes in textual criticism, given it plays such a central role in determining the text of the Bible on which every aspect of the bulging field of biblical studies depends. Would you say textual criticism of the Bible is largely a completed research project?

        • BDEhrman August 30, 2012 at 9:17 pmLog in to Reply

          No, it is not at all completed. Apart from my program at UNC, what is the second?

          • Hon Wai Lai August 30, 2012 at 11:35 pm

            I was referring to Dallas Theological Seminar as a “university”.

          • BDEhrman August 31, 2012 at 10:41 pm

            Ah! That it is not! There are other conservative evangelical theological seminaries where one can work in textual criticism, for example Southwestern Baptist.

    Dr. Ehrman, what specific field of study (within general biblical studies) do you see most need in? Also, Is there a large need for scholarship in textual criticism?

    • BDEhrman September 5, 2012 at 11:18 pmLog in to Reply

      I think it’s a wide open field. Lots and lots needs to be done — including in textual criticism! Maybe I’ll address the issue in some posts on my blog. It’s a big issue.

    Oh dear, I seem to’ve drooled all over my keyboard… again…

    I so much enjoy the fact that Bart has covered so many of these areas so clearly and (what’s the adjective for “makes me think I could actually make it through some of these incredibly advanced courses although I probably couldn’t understand the introductory lecture”? 🙁

    I’m slowly teaching myself to read koine Greek (some of the fundamentalist online interlinear scripture sites are incredible, though I have to “collate” and cross-verify an awful lot), and I’ve signed up for a course in Aramaic, just for fun… I have to say, reality bites – my schoolboy French isn’t worth much, given the fact I last read French in anger 34 years ago! Still, it’s challenging, and fun, and keeps my intellectual fires stoked.

    Thanks for showing us what a scholar can achieve, Prof. It’s much appreciated.

    Who, Bart, are the “ten authors known as the Apostolic Fathers”?

    The Wikipedia article appears to name fewer.

    Many thanks! 🙂

    • BDEhrman May 30, 2015 at 2:45 pmLog in to Reply

      1 Clement, 2 Clement, Ignatius, Polycarp, Martyrdom of Polycarp, Barnabas, the Didache, Hermas, Letter to Diognetus, and Papias (and possibly Quadratus).

        Thanks! 🙂
