PHI253 Early Christian Sacred Texts

Christians wrote and wrestled over many texts in the first 300 years of the religion. We will explore these texts as well as the conversations around them, leading up their adoption into or exclusion from what is known today as the New Testament. Emphasis will be upon the social and theological problems in these early communities that occasioned the crafting of the texts.
