Discovery Class–We continue with week two of the four part video presentation of Jesus in Galilee. This weeks class explores Baptism & Jordan. The class will learn how John's "baptism" was so distinctive that he was nicknamed "Baptist" by both Josephus and Mark. Let's examine what history tells us about John's movement and Jesus' participation in it. We will examine...What made John's baptism distinctive enough to become his defining title: the convergent historical evidence from Josephus and the Gospels and how Jesus' emergence from this movement shaped his own mission and message. This pre-recorded video lecture is from Dr. John Dominic Crossan, one of the world's foremost scholars of the historical Jesus—rigorously reconstructing the life, teachings, and world of a first-century Jewish peasant who proclaimed God's Rule in Roman-occupied Galilee. This class is live-zoomed and recorded. (Room 102 & Zoom) Discovery Class Zoom Link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/822361992
