SUMMARY:“The Book of Genesis” Non-Credit Course
DESCRIPTION:Intended for university students\, faculty\, and recent graduates. Others interested in attending\, please contact info@lumenchristi.org \nThursday\, January 13\nGenesis 1-2: “Creation: Grace upon Grace” \nIf the Hebrew word for God were treated as an unknown (so that we learned its meaning from the text\, instead of bringing our catechism with us to the reading)\, these verses would by themselves teach us most of the Divine Attributes. We are told of the creation of heaven and earth\, the creation of man in the image of God\, the naming of the beasts\, the presentation of the woman and her namegiving\, and the nuptial meaning of the one flesh. To be discussed: what authority does the text of Genesis claim for itself? \nThursday\, January 20\nGenesis 3-4: “Downfall” \nGod places the man into a garden He had planted. Prohibition\, temptation\, sacrifice\, and homicide make their appearance. What are we to understand by prohibition\, sin\, lying\, and shame as conveyed by the text? \nThursday\, January 27\nGenesis 5-11: “The Sign of the Covenant” \nGod resolves to destroy “all flesh” by the flood. What does it mean for God to annihilate His own Creation? What does the righteousness of Noah consist in and what is the meaning of the covenant? What was the sin of the builders of the tower of Babel\, and how does the sacred author understand their abasement? \nThursday\, February 3\nGenesis 12-22: “Abraham: Reckoned unto Him as Righteousness” \nThe story of Abraham and Sarah is the story of a divine promise\, which is at once a burden and a source of hope. What is meant to be taught by Abraham’s obedience in the sacrifice of Isaac? To be discussed: does the Old Testament understand faith as a virtue? \nThursday\, February 17\nGenesis 23-36: “The Sorrows of the Patriarchs” \nAbraham\, Isaac\, and Jacob are not held up to us as men whose character and moral conduct are to be imitated. Their patriarchy is accorded its value not in virtue of heroism or holiness\, yet is seen most clearly in adversity. To be discussed: within its own limits\, what does the Book of Genesis understand by “Israel”?
