This course will examine Paul as a prominent historical figure as well as overviews of his writings found in the canonical scriptures of the Christian Church. This ten-week course will explore who Paul was within the context of early Christianity. Paul, probably next to Jesus himself, is the key figure in the nascent Church. His letters give us insight into the earliest understandings of Jesus and his post-resurrection followers. We will see Paul as both a controversial figure of his own time and of ours and begin to understand the basis of the various interpretations his writings have spawned. For more detailed information, required texts and course expectations, please see the course syllabus.
