The culmination of our Lenten study of Luke’s passion narrative will be two presentations by one of the foremost Biblical scholars of our day, Amy-Jill Levine.  Dr. Levine brings Jewish and feminist perspectives to her teaching and numerous books.  She and Dr. Ben Witherington, a leading evangelical New Testament scholar, co-authored a commentary on the Gospel of Luke; her latest book is Witness at the Cross (© 2021), a companion volume to Entering the Passion of Jesus (© 2018). 

​

March 30 + The Women at the Cross

“…the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a distance, watching …”

 

April 6 + The Other Two Victims

“Two others, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him.”

 

Amy-Jill Levine is Rabbi Stanley M. Kessler Distinguished Professor of New Testament and Jewish Studies, Hartford International University for Religion and Peace, and University Professor of New Testament and Jewish Studies and Mary Jane Werthan Professor of Jewish Studies Emerita, Vanderbilt.
