Sunday Adult Forum (Christian Essentials 2008 1a & 2008 1b)


Saint Jerome & the Lion

Last Sunday the adult forum began. The topic for October is the Bible. The first two classes, which I am leading, focus on the Bible as we have recieved it. Last week we discussed what it means that the Bible is a translation. How do we get from Greek and Hebrew (and other things) to English? What is the difference between this translation and that translation? Why do we use the translation (RSV) that we do?

This Sunday we will focus on where the texts that we have come from. Why do we have four Gospels? Do they agree? Do they disagree? What does it mean? It should be a lot of fun.

Sunday classes meet in the Mission House (133 West 46th Street) at 10AM.
