The Gospels Were Written Early, Not After AD 70

#bible #gospels #apologetics
Most scholars say that the Gospel of Mark dates from AD 66-70, Matthew and Luke around 85-90, and John 90-100. Skeptics like Bart Ehrman imply that they’re too late to be reliable, as a decades-long time gap leaves plenty of room for myths and legends to creep in.
When it comes to history, chronological closeness matters. But where exactly are critics coming up with these later dates?
In this video, I look at one bad reason biblical critics date the gospels late and one underrated reason that some critics give the Gospels an early date, including skeptical scholars.
