Peter Williams interviews Dr Tom C. Schmidt about his new book, 'Josephus and Jesus: New Evidence for the One they Call Christ'. In this episode they tackle the question of whether Josephus's writing about Jesus was edited by Christians to sound more like the biblical account, or whether it could in fact have been written by Josephus. In next week's episode they will discuss whether Josephus could have known people who were present at Jesus's trial.
Tom's book has been published online for free: https://academic.oup.com/book/60034
