JWST 305 - Biblical Prophecy & Apocalypse Semester Offered: First Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4HU, WINT
What is the meaning of biblical prophecy? What does biblical prophecy have to do with Jesus and Christ-centered stories about the end of the world? This course is designed to introduce students to the critical study of prophecy, apocalypse, and eschatology. We will focus on the historical, cultural, and theological contexts in which biblical prophecies and apocalypses were written. We will also put into dialogue early Christ-centered writings with Jewish prophetic and apocalyptic texts, leaving room to question to what extent early Christ-followers made sense of Jesus and the end of days in light of traditional Jewish sources. Enrollment Limit: 15 Instructor: S. Emanuel Cross List Information Cross-listed with RELG 305
