Adult Bible School, June 1-4
How the Bible Reached Us with Professor Gary A. Rendsburg - June 1 to 4 - 5:00 to 7:00 p.m.
We walk into church or synagogue, and we take it for granted that the Bible is in our hands, with abundant copies in the pews and in the bookcases. But how did the Bible reach us? This wide-ranging series explores the history of the Bible, transmitted by devoted scribes throughout antiquity and the Middle Ages, up to the age of printing. How did all this happen, when did all this happen, and why did all this happen? Or to repeat the question above, how did the Bible reach us?
Professor Gary A. Rendsburg serves as the Blanche and Irving Laurie Chair in Jewish History and holds the rank of Distinguished Professor in the Department of Jewish Studies at Rutgers University.
Dinner will be served each evening.
Registration for this event is closed.
