This week, Dr. Hugo Méndez, Associate Professor in Ancient Mediterranean Religions at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, joins Bible & Archaeology for a discussion about authorship in the New Testament. In this conversation we cover it all: How can scholars tell if something was falsely authored? How many texts do we think fall into the category of false authorship or forgery? And why does it matter?
