 th the New Testament - Dr Julia Snyder\, Faculty of Divinity and Bye Fello

DESCRIPTION:Many people think of the New Testament as a set of Christian t
 exts that provide information about the authors’ views on being Christia
 n. There are problems with talking about “Christians” in connection wi
 th the New Testament\, however. This talk will explore some of those probl
 ems\, drawing on my research on the letters of the apostle Paul. It will d
 iscuss how reading through the lens of “Christians” can obscure the si
 tuation of women and enslaved persons in the ancient world. It will also e
 xplore how it may contribute to the phenomenon of accidental anti-Judaism 
 among readers of the Bible today.
