The Christian Story and the Jewish People

The “Christian Story” and the Jewish People Lecture Notes/Questions

Focus of the class:

1. How does the formulation of the "Christian story" contribute to a negative image of Judaism and the Jewish People?

2. How does modern biblical scholarship help faithful Christians rethink their Christian story in order to develop a renewed and revised image?

Note the questions on p. 88.  How can they be answered by subsequent readings?

c.6 look at the complexity of the physical and intellectual world of Jesus.

c.7 look at Jesus within the context of Temple practice and purity. How can we recontextualize this?
