Dr. Jack Dean Kingsbury Lecture in New Testament Theology
2022-09-20 19:30 - 20:30 | MO, United States
Join Dr. James W. Voelz, the Dr. Jack Dean Kingsbury Professor of New Testament Theology, Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, for the seventh annual Dr. Jack Dean Kingsbury Lecture in New Testament Theology.
Doing Biblical Interpretation the Concordia St. Louis Way
Concordia Seminary, St. Louis, is a confessional Lutheran Seminary whose exegetes practice a conservative method of biblical interpretation that is both textual and historical, often called the historical-grammatical method. But there are various versions or iterations of this method, i.e., various points of emphasis or various elements of focus. Concordia Seminary exegetes have a specific approach to biblical interpretation, their own version of the historical-grammatical method, as it were, especially in the last 40-50 years. This lecture will take a close look at the features of this “St. Louis Seminary” approach.

How the Early Church Read the Bible
Dr. David Maxwell
Registration deadline: Sept. 23, 2022
The Bible has been around for more than 2,000 years, and people have read it in different ways. This course explores how the church read the Bible in the first 500 years of the church’s history. By entering into the mindset of Christians in a very different time and place from our own, we can gain fresh eyes for our own reading of Scripture.

500th Anniversary Lecture: Martin Luther’s New Testament Translation
2022-10-13 18:15 - 20:30 | MO, United States
In 11 weeks’ time, Martin Luther managed to produce a translation of the New Testament that forever changed the shape of the German language and influenced the earliest Protestant English Bibles. But Luther’s translation was first and foremost an expression of his understanding of God’s Word as a “living voice” that brings life to those who hear it.
Now, 500 years after Luther first translated the New Testament, millions of people still don’t have the Bible in their own language. Come and delve into a discussion about the ways Luther’s vision to place God’s Word into every language is being fulfilled across the globe during the “500th Anniversary Lecture: Martin Luther’s New Testament Translation” co-sponsored by Concordia Seminary and Lutheran Bible Translators.
Held at 7 p.m. CT Thursday, Oct. 13, in Werner Auditorium on campus, this special lecture will feature two esteemed New Testament scholars: Dr. Jeff Kloha, chief curatorial officer at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., and former Seminary provost; and Dr. Vilson Scholz, visiting professor of Exegetical Theology at the Seminary and former translation consultant for United Bible Societies.
This event is free and open to the public. The lecture will be preceded by a reception at 6:15 p.m.
