5. The New Testament as History
Introduction to New Testament (RLST 152)
The accounts of Paul's travels in The Acts of the Apostles and Galatians seem to contradict each other at many points. Their descriptions of a meeting in Jerusalem--a major council in Acts versus a small, informal gathering in Galatians--also differ quite a bit. How do we understand these differences? A historical critical reading of these accounts does not force these texts into a harmonious unity or accept them at face value. Instead, a historical critical reading carefully sifts through the details of the texts and asks which of these is more likely to be historically accurate.
00:00 - Chapter 1. Paul's Travels in the Acts of the Apostles
17:49 - Chapter 2. Paul's Travels in Galatians
28:25 - Chapter 3. Which Account Is More Historically Accurate?
