The Difficult Words of Jesus: A beginners guide to his most perplexing teaching by Professor Amy-Jill Levine. This is a short book (6 chapters; 156 pages) – so we would meet over 6 weeks – one chapter per week.
Professor Levine is the Professor of New Testament & Jewish Studies at Vanderbilt Divinity School USA. She is an internationally renowned scholar and teacher and the author of numerous books including Jesus the Misunderstood Jew and the Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi.
The study group would be via zoom on Tuesday afternoons between 3.30 pm and 4.30pm. The sessions include a brief overview of the chapter led by me followed by group discussion of the chapter.
