Introduction to the New Testament, July 2017

Starting next week, July 5, I am teaching Introduction to the New Testament at Fordham University. In one month, my students and I will read almost all of the New Testament and explore its social, religious, and historical context in the Greco-Roman world. Some of my favorite classes focus on the role of women in early Christianity, Roman attitudes toward Jews and Christians, and the theological implications of the Passion and resurrection narratives.
