About
The New Testament was written by Jewish believers in Jesus, with the possible exception of Luke. But for many Christians, the Jewish context of “B’rit Hadashah” has been lost. We invite you to join us for a free webinar series with Dr. Craig Keener, professor of biblical studies at Asbury Theological Seminary. Dr. Keener will speak about how knowing the place, culture, and theology of the Jewish people can give you a greater understanding of the New Testament texts and help you to interpret them with much deeper insight. Over the course of two days, we will explore the Sermon on the Mount, the Book of Revelation, and the Gospel of John. You will need a special link to join the livestream, so register now to reserve your seat!
Session 1: The Jewish Context for the Sermon on the Mount and the Book of Matthew
Session 2: The Jewish Context for the Sermon on the Mount and the Gospel of Matthew Continued
Session 3: The Jewish Context for the Gospel of John
Session 4: The Jewish Context for the Book of Revelation
