This February 6 event will explore what we know—and don’t know—about these teachers of the past who are also in some ways the predecessors of all forms of modern Judaism. The program will start with an initial presentation by the co-editors and contributors to The Pharisees, a multidisciplinary volume that addresses the question historically, theologically, and pastorally. Following the panel, interactive roundtable discussions will allow the panelists to join participants in exploring some practical suggestions for incorporating a nuanced understanding of the Pharisees in preaching, teaching, and catechesis.
