Public Lectures

this course covers these burning questions:

Did Peter assert that Gentile followers of the Jewish Jesus needed to adopt Jewish practices such as circumcision, observing kosher food laws, and keeping the Sabbath?
Did Paul, in contrast, maintain that Jewish converts to Christianity were not obligated to adhere to the Mosaic law?
In Paul's account of his confrontation with Peter, why does he not mention the outcome of the dispute? Was there an assumption that he had been defeated?
Why does the book of Acts portray Peter and Paul as completely aligned? Does this portrayal deviate significantly from historical reality?
Could the New Testament books of 1 and 2 Peter have been authored later by someone posing as Peter to illustrate his acceptance of Paul and his teachings?
What motivated certain writings attributed to Peter to vilify Paul as the ultimate heretic, referred to as "my enemy"?
Was the rift described in Galatians between Peter and Paul everlasting? Did they maintain fundamentally divergent interpretations of Jesus' teachings until their deaths?
