Description
Jesus is called by many names in the New Testament: God, Lord, Son of God, Son of Man, Messiah, Prophet, Bread of Life, True Light, and many others. The Evil One is called by many names as well: Satan, Devil, Poneros and others. This course will explore the significance of each of these titles individually, by examining their prehistory prior to the New Testament, as well as the way in which these various titles coalesce into a coherent understanding of the identity of Jesus Christ, and the identity of the Evil One whom Christ overcomes.
