Doctoral Seminar on Hebrews

October 22, 2012

This week I participate in my first ever doctoral seminar at LMU. One of my fellow students is researching Hebrews for his dissertation. Thus, our seminar will focus on Hebrews and we will hopefully sharpen our friend’s research into the letter. Incidentally, he gets to co-teach the seminar. Listed below are the essays and monographs we will be reading for the course. I’m proud to say that one of Dr. Black’s essays (who supervised my master’s work) made the list:
