Description
Christ’s birth, life, crucifixion, and glorious resurrection were all prophesied centuries earlier in Old Testament
times. This course aims to reconstruct the prehistory of Christ or the Old Testament messianism as it unfolds in
the Pentateuch, Psalms and Prophets. Selected messianic texts will be interpreted in the light of patristic traditions
with references to modern scholarship as well. This course may fulfill the Old Testament Exegesis requirement.
