DISCOUNT FOR CLERGY & STUDENTS

with Lyn Bechtel

An introduction to the Hebrew Bible and the language it is written in. Learn why looking for the

original meaning of the Hebrew Bible (rather than a modern perception) is important and why some

knowledge of biblical Hebrew and its thinking pattern is essential. Study the two major theologies of

the Hebrew Bible in their original context and understand how these two theologies prepare us to

consider the theology of Jesus and the New Testament Gospels.

Lyn Bechtel is a feminist Hebrew Bible scholar.
