Course Description

This introductory course explores each portion of the New Testament in historical order (Pauline letters, gospels, and Acts, catholic epistles, and Revelation) by examining how the different New Testament authors describe, explain, or use the resurrection of Jesus in their respective genres. We will trace the development of the disruptive proclamation of the resurrection from the earliest church to its form as a story in the gospels to its institution as church doctrine.
