Sharing Our Scriptures: Three introductory sessions

Fourth Wednesdays at 7 PM:

  • April 26 @ Temple Bnai Israel, 383 Jackson St., Willimantic
  • May 24 @ Storrs Congregational Church UCC, 2 North Eagleville Rd., Storrs
  • June 28 @ UCONN Islamic Center, 28 North Eagleville Rd, Storrs
  • NEW DATE, TIME & LOCATION:  July 26 at 6:00 pm @ Windham Muslim Community, 4 Industrial Park Rd., North Windham

We’ve all heard of the Hebrew Bible, the New Testament, and Quran, but how much do we actually understand about what they mean to our Jewish, Christian, and Muslim neighbors?

These introductory sessions will cover:

  • Contents: What are the holy books of the religion?
  • Contexts: When and how are they read?
  • Origins: Where did they come from according to traditions and according to critical scholarship/opinion?
  • Emphases: What parts are particularly important to the various streams within the religion? Are there parts that are not read or heavily reinterpreted?

ALL WELCOME!
