Drawing on decades of research, Craig Blomberg addresses all of the major objections to the historicity of the New Testament in one comprehensive volume. Topics addressed include the formation of the Gospels, the transmission of the text, the formation of the canon, alleged contradictions, the relationship between Jesus and Paul, supposed Pauline forgeries, other gospels, miracles, and many more. Historical corroborations of details from all parts of the New Testament are also presented throughout. The Historical Reliability of the New Testament marshals the latest scholarship in responding to New Testament objections, while remaining accessible to non-specialists. Review: Excellent book! - This is a thorough book unpacking how we can trust the New Testament. Every pastor, Bible teacher, student and scholar should have this work in their library! Review: Fair, Accurate, Balanced... Easy to navigate too - Prof. Blomberg has written a dozen solid books and over 150 peer-reviewed articles on New Testament scholarship. This 800-pager is not as intimidating as it looks. Extremely readable, easy to navigate, very well footnoted, with two generous indices, any thoughtful non-specialist could use this with some effort and care. It is that rare book of scholarship that is accessible and yet takes you on a very deep dive if you allow it to. Just started it last night, but flipping through to pet topics I have some extra interest in, I found it super insightful and reliable. Very self-evidently fair, balanced and accurate. I read the few negative reviews. A few criticize the format of the Kindle version, but not the content of the book (In fact, one of the 1-star reviews praises Blomberg!). One criticizes the conclusions Blomberg draws, but doesn't in any way show deep interaction with how Blomberg arrived at them. That sort of shallow critique is exactly the approach Blomberg avoids in his own analysis! He is generous, fair and humble in his interactions with other scholarship even if he is resolute in the conclusions he lands on. Skeptics and critics, especially, owe it to themselves and humanity to give this a few hours of your time. Even if it doesn't flip you on some issues, it will certainly temper some unfounded dismissals of the Bible that I hear constantly in our cultural narrative. Give it a test drive. Rev.

He does so with studied scholarship clothed with a popular and very readable style. This book will prove to be a valuable resource to both Christ followers as well as those who are considering the claims of Christ but are hindered by intellectual questions. I predict it will stand the test of time. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/53287782-the-historical-reliability-of-the-new-testament-countering-the-challenges](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/53287782-the-historical-reliability-of-the-new-testament-countering-the-challenges) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-25*
