Where they could have slanted the story to put themselves and Jesus in the best light, they did not. This convinces many of us that the account is truthful.
Thank you, this is very important, and IMO is seldom stressed enough. What writer does not seek to put himself in a good light? What other examples are there, other than Biblical, where writers actually disregard/put themselves down in their writings?
