Title: Historical Jesus
Course Section Number: REL-372-01
Department: Religion
Description: VIRTUAL COURSE. HIS-310-01=REL-372-01 "From Jesus to Christ" . . ." The Proclaimer became the Proclaimed" . . . "Jesus preached the Kingdom of God and what came about was the Church." What can we really know about Jesus of Nazareth, one of the most important historical figures in world history? These slogans reflect the differences, even the divisions, perceived by many scholars, for well over 200 years now, between the activities, sayings, and intentions of the "historical Jesus" and "Jesus Christ" of the Church's creeds and confessions. This class will examine these recent claims by leading scholars that that earliest and best sources about Jesus of Nazareth and Second Temple Judaism and the creeds of Christian Churches are at odds with each other-sometimes mildly, sometimes dramatically so.
