| Summary |
Presents a series of twelve lectures that provide an introduction to the New Testament for people who recognize or appreciate its cultural importance or have religious commitments to it. This course is historical and does not presuppose faith or deny faith. The four Gospels, the book of Acts, the 21 epistles and the book of Revelation are studied in terms of the factors which eventually produced them. |
