Summary

Unveiling Truth: Undesigned Coincidences in the Gospels and Acts

Hidden in Plain View: Undesigned Coincidences in the Gospels and Acts revives an argument for the historical reliability of the New Testament that has been largely neglected for more than a hundred years. An undesigned coincidence is an apparently casual, yet puzzle-like “fit” between two or more texts, and its best explanation is that the authors knew the truth about the events they describe or allude to.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

Readable and entertaining, as well as instructive, this book is well worth the read. (William Lane Craig)

One more important plank in the ever-growing platform for the reliability of the New Testament. (Craig L. Blomberg)

Lydia McGrew has opened a window into Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century apologetics by reintroducing the concept of “undesigned coincidences,” showing how different passages can complement each other in ways that support their historicity. (Gary R. Habermas)

A valuable and accessible approach for recognizing significant historical information in the Gospels that does not simply repeat arguments that most of us have already heard. (Craig Keener)

Both those who defend the faith and those who oppose it will have to take these original and welcome insights very seriously. (Paul Maier)

McGrew has done us a great service by showing us how to find evidence that is easy to miss even though it is right before the readers’ eyes. (C. Stephen Evans)

An intriguing concept, executed well. The result is not only a fascinating read but a deeper appreciation for the connections Scripture makes. (Darrell L. Bock)

I must confess that I never took the argument from “undesigned coincidences” very seriously-until I read this book. (Greg Boyd)

Even though I have been teaching and writing in the field of apologetics for nearly two decades, many of Lydia McGrew’s arguments were new to me. And I find them very convincing. (Sean McDowell)
