Publisher's summary

Dan Brown's international best-seller The DaVinci Code has raised many questions in the minds of readers. The DaVinci Code, in blurring the lines between fact and fiction, popularizes the speculations and contentions of numerous more serious books that are also attracting wide attention. How should we respond to such claims that we now have documents that reveal secrets about Jesus, secrets long suppressed by the church and other religious institutions?

Do these new documents successfully debunk traditional views about Jesus and early Christianity? Ben Witherington confronts these claims with the sure-footedness of a New Testament scholar, yet in the plain language than any interested reader can follow. He takes us back to the early centuries after Jesus' death and tells us what we really can know about Jesus, Mary Magdalene, the canonical Gospels and their Gnostic rivals.

A Good Book

I decided to read both "The Gospel Code" by Ben Witherington and "Breaking the Da Vinci Code" by Darrell Bock.
Both books were good.
Bock's book does a better job of getting straight to the point regarding the errors of "The Da Vinci Code."
Witherington's book spends additional time discussing matters outside of the immediate scope of "The Da Vinci Code."
Both books were good. Both contained a lot of the same information.
