How the Good News Goes Bad: Christian Biblical Interpretation and Antisemitism (Dialogues on Divinit

The Dialogues on Divinity series seeks to address vital contemporary issues with a theological lens. It is presented by the Community at the Crossing, an ecumenical community for young adults, in residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. The series is co-sponsored by Graymoor Ecumenical & Interreligious Institute (GEII).

Dr. Amy-Jill Levine, world-renowned scholar of biblical studies and Jewish-Christian relations, will join the Very Rev. Patrick Malloy, Dean of the Cathedral, to discuss what constitutes antisemitic biblical interpretation, the typical errors Christians make about the Jewish context of Jesus and Paul, why mistakes continue to be made, and what can be done to correct them.

Day-of student rush tickets will be available in person at the time of the event.
