Course Info
The Jewish Gospel of John confirms what Krister Stendahl stated long time ago: "Our vision is often more abstracted by what we think we know than by our lack of knowledge." Other than challenging the long-held interpretations of well-known stories, the author with the skill of an experienced tour guide, takes us to a seat within those who most probably heard this gospel read in the late first century. Such exploration of a variety of important contexts allows us to recover for our generation the true riches of this marvelous Judean gospel. This mini-course covers chapters 7-13 of John’s Gospel.

Posted 2 months agoThis was a very good course. Dr Eli is a very good reader/narrator! This course shows that the so-called Rabbinic authority has NO authority over me, therefore, their edict or prohibition NOT to pronounce the Name of YHWH has NO authoirty over ANY of us. In fact, we are commanded in Yeshiyahu 12, AND Yirmiyahu 12 to call on His name. Amen. -
