Bart Ehrman has insisted that he never thought and never said that Paul went to Jerusalem to interview Peter or that Peter gave Paul eyewitness testimony about Peter's resurrection experience. That's very likely true. Ehrman seems to have a fair complaint against Habermas for over-claiming on those points, and such over-optimistic interpretation is only too typical of Habermas, as we've already seen in this series.But that's only part of the story. In fairness to Habermas, I have to say that Bart Ehrman is retconning what he said in his book _Did Jesus Exist?_ about "all" (Ehrman's words) of the traditions that Paul explicitly says he "received." This would include the first verses of I Corinthians 15. Ehrman now emphatically denies that he ever said or ever though that that list of resurrection appearances was extant prior to Paul's conversion. He says that he only conceded that these traditions were in existence prior to Paul's writing his epistles. But here he's wrong. He did write things in _Did Jesus Exist?_ that Habermas quite fairly took to mean that this list was in existence prior to Paul's conversion.Watch to get all the details.Here's the interview between Ehrman and Paulogia where he makes these disavowals:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQmwC4jLzWE
