They weren't original statements, but quotations from the psalms. Both Psalm 22 (quoted in John's account) and Psalm 31 (quoted in Luke's account) are psalms where a person persecuted unjustly awaits the vindication of the Lord. They sound different in english, but in their proper context, the two sayings are synonymous. That's bible 101 stuff, no way Ehrman didn't know that, he's just trying to mislead people who don't research. Found this at Colbert’s site and worth repeating

I think he won the "debate". I've been following your post and have found it helpful in my research in fighting my Christian unbelief. Thanks. It was good seeing Colbert grill Ehrman.
