Publisher's Synopsis
The Credibility of the Gospel History, Volume 9, Part 2: Or the Principal Facts of the New Testament is a book written by Nathaniel Lardner and first published in 1753. The book is a scholarly examination of the historical accuracy and credibility of the New Testament, specifically focusing on the principal facts of the gospel. Lardner argues that the New Testament is a reliable historical document and defends the authenticity of the gospel accounts against criticisms and objections from skeptics. He examines various aspects of the New Testament, including the life and teachings of Jesus, the miracles he performed, his crucifixion and resurrection, and the spread of Christianity in the early years after his death. The book is divided into two parts, with the second part focusing on the resurrection of Jesus and the evidence for its historicity. Lardner presents a detailed analysis of the various accounts of the resurrection in the New Testament, as well as the testimony of early Christian writers and other historical sources. Overall, The Credibility of the Gospel History is a significant work of Christian apologetics and a valuable resource for scholars and students of the New Testament. It provides a thorough and well-researched defense of the historical reliability of the gospel accounts and offers insights into the early development of Christianity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
