The Nativity Narratives of the Gospels, Part 2

Dec 12, 2016 |

Join us in the Great Hall as Dr. Larry Welborn, Professor of the New Testament at Fordham University, continues to guide us on a multi-week tour through the Nativity narratives of the Gospels, providing his expert historical and spiritual insights, informed by the latest scholarship.

Last week he regaled us with a lively examination of Joseph, Jesus’ father-in-law, in light of claims of illegitimacy in the air at the time. This week he painted a picture of Jesus’ mother, Mary, using the hidden details that have recently emerged in the scholarly world.
