Dr. Nicholas J. Schaser, Professor of New Testament and Jewish Studies
The resurrection of Jesus is foundational to the Christian faith, but the concept of resurrection was a Jewish one before it came to shape Christianity. Yeshua was not the first person to be raised from the dead and, according to Jewish texts and traditions, he won’t be the last! Israel’s Scriptures are full of resurrection events, prophecy, and theology—and all of it highlights the Messiah’s resurrection as a thoroughly Jewish event. In this exciting course, you will walk through Judaic history to see how resurrection develops as an idea among the ancient Israelites, runs through the Second Temple period (including the New Testament), and carries on after Jesus with the later rabbis. Join us for these stimulating lectures that reveal the resurrection power of God, the original meaning of Jesus’ death and resurrection, and the hope of being raised at the end of days. Enroll to discover the real relevance of resurrection from a Jewish perspective!
