“Does the Bible really say that?” This and other questions will be answered for each post on this page. Following a tradition that started with the early work of the Jesus Seminar, the answer will not be a simple “Yes” or “No.” After hearing and discussing research presentations, scholars vote to indicate degrees of agreement about important research questions. Scholars vote using colored beads. Red means “Yes.” Pink means “Probably.” Gray means “Probably not.” Black means “No.”
