As remarked in a recent comment I have been dwelling on a micro-section of The Jesus Legend (Eddy and Boyd) in this recent series of posts. But this is not the first time I have addressed specifics in their book. I am sure I will be addressing more in future, both macro and micro.
Other comments on their work is in my Eddy and Boyd archive.
This includes:
Destroying a story to save a geographical reference
Embarrassing or stereotypical narrative details
Miracles: Fundamentalist misrepresentation of David Hume’s sceptical argument
Eddy and Boyd: The Jesus Legend – Overview Impressions
Eddy and Boyd: Miracles and global human experience
A silly argument encountered so often in biblical studies
