Cathedral Book Club: "Jesus and Paul: Parallel Lives"

The Cathedral Book Club meets on Thursday, August 24, 2023 in the West Conference Room, 7 - 8pm, to discuss "Jesus and Paul: Parallel Lives," by Irish Dominican FatherJerome Murphy-O'Connor, O.P. 

The (2007) book is described as  "imaginative interweaving of geographical, cultural, and historical elements into configurations that reveal important parallel trajectories in the lives of ... Jesus, the God-Man, alongside Paul, Man of God and Apostle to the Gentiles."

Father Jerry had been a Professor of New Testament at the Ecole Biblique in Jerusalem since 1967.  Whether writing or lecturing, he was increasingly recognized as a popular Biblical authority, especially on Paul.

The 107- page work promises to be thoughtful summer reading. 

Let's get reading so you can join the discussion of "Jesus and Paul: Parallel Lives."
