Miracles: The Credibility of the New Testament Accounts

Miracles
Craig S. Keener
Hardcover, 1172 pp., $59.99
Baker Academic (November 1, 2011)

Miracles: The Credibility of the New Testament Accounts
Most modern prejudice against biblical miracles depends on David Hume’s argument that uniform human experience precludes miracles. Yet human experience is far from uniform, and hundreds of millions of people today claim to have experienced miracles. This two-volume study presents the most thorough defense of the credibility of the miracle reports in the Gospels and Acts. Keener suggests that historical and contemporary miracle accounts are best explained as genuine divine acts, lending credence to the biblical miracle reports.
