Other courses cover the Synoptic Gospels, John, Acts, and Paul; this course covers the rest of the New Testament — Hebrews, James, I and II Peter, Jude, and Revelation. Study of these writings allows us to see the full diversity of witnesses in the New Testament and presents an opportunity for reflection on the processes involved in the formation of the canon. The course includes a more in-depth examination of the first century world — particularly the interplay between early Christian communities, Judaism, and the variety of religions in the Greco-Roman world.
Elective, 3 credits
Spring, alternate years
