Book Synopsis
Invites readers to go back to the time of the writing of the Bible and look at what is said about the sacred texts with a specific focus on how the authority of such texts was viewed. Ben Witherington then walks through Christian history until the point where the phrase sola scriptura actually appears as an authority claim of some kind.
