Description

What happened on the cross? In what ways can Jesus' death be said to be salvific for us? What do you preach on Good Friday? In this course we bring exegesis and theology in conversation by looking at how the Old Testament speaks about sacrifice and vicarious suffering, the diverse ways in which the New Testament understands the meaning of the cross, and how different theological models of atonement draw on this Biblical material.
