SAHS: Leviticus as Christian Scripture: Formational Reflections

If we believe, with the Apostle Paul, that ALL Scripture is breathed out by God and is useful for the list of formative characteristics in 2 Timothy 3:16-17, then that includes Leviticus. But this raises the all-important question: how does Leviticus form and shape us into the people God is calling us to be in Christ? We have already had opportunities to push into these questions of Leviticus and formation in our previous sessions, and this will be a sole focus in our third event. Our expert guides for the event will be Dr. Christine Palmer and Rev. Dr. Amy Davis Abdallah.

The program for the event is as follows:

• Welcome and Introduction
• “Habituated for Heaven: the Formative Power of Leviticus”—Dr. Christine Palmer
• “Go, Eat, and Rest: Embodied Ritual as Formation in Leviticus”— Rev. Dr. Amy Davis Abdallah
• Discussion
• Closing

.
Join us on Wednesday, September 18th at 4pm EDT.

If you missed our first event in the series that dealt with hermeneutical matters or the second which deals with intertextual matters, you can watch the video recordings here and here.
