How the Bible Explains Suffering

Bart D. Ehrman was invited to speak at the University of California Berkeley Graduate Council Lectures on September 8, 2008, titling his lecture, "Problem and Human Solutions: How the Bible Explains Suffering with Bart Ehrman " [Show ID: 14693]. The presentation was part of the Foerster Lectures on the Immortality of the Soul. In 1928, Miss Edith Zweybruck established the Foerster Lectureship. She requested that lectures be given "on the immortality of the soul or other kindred subjects. Such lecture is not to form a part of the regular college course and shall be delivered by some person especially qualified therefore and especially appointed for the purpose."

Susanna Elm, Professor in the Department of History, Director of the Foerster Lectureship Committee, introduces Bart at the onset of the lecture.
