I don't know the man, only took a cursory look at one video, but I think "divinely inspired", in this day and age, is a useless term, and the odds are, and I do not believe I'm going too far out on a limb here when I say, that he is not.

A greater question is why are you taking up the idea that he is?

I believe they call this "damning with faint praise".

If Ehrman has made it possible for people to get closer to knowing the truth about the provenance, textual integrity, and internal logic of the New Testament, doesn't that mean his work ~ according to those who believe that the scriptures and their subsequent translations are divinely inspired ~ is part of the process?
