Course Description

Genesis makes a unique and important contribution to the biblical canon. This course explores that contribution by looking at the distinctive place Genesis occupies in the biblical narrative and investigating its rich theological content. It investigates the sophisticated composition of the book and its carefully crafted narrative episodes. The student will also encounter the book’s remarkable capacity for speaking to contemporary concerns in the complex cultural landscapes that exist within Aotearoa New Zealand and beyond.
