The 2008 Bernard Manekin Lecture

Hearing the Parables Through Jewish Ears:
Good Samaritans, Bad Lawyers, and Challenging Teachings

Dr. Amy-Jill Levine

September 11, 2008

7:30 p.m.
Kraushaar Auditorium, Goucher College
1021 Dulaney Valley Road, Baltimore, MD 21204

The ICJS welcomes Dr. Amy-Jill Levine, E. Rhodes and Leona B. Carpenter Professor of New Testament Studies at Vanderbilt University Divinity School in Nashville, Ten-nessee. She is the author of several books, including The Misunderstood Jew: The Church and the Scandal of the Jewish Jesus. A self-described "Yankee Jewish femi-nist who teaches in a predominantly Protestant divinity school in the buckle of the Bible Belt," Professor Levine combines historical-critical rigor, literary-critical sensitiv-ity, and a frequent dash of humor with a commitment to eliminating anti-Jewish, sexist, and homophobic theol-ogies. She is a lively and engaging speaker, so this promises to be an enjoyable as well as educational evening.

This event is FREE and open to the public.
