About the event

In the 1st Testament, the prophets were the charismatic commentators on social, political, economic and religious issues of the day, that offered a safety valve within a system ruled by kings. They were often political figure – scathing speakers against religious norms. This lecture will consider some of the early prophets, such as Amos, the most radical voice of the times. Rev. Sandy will provide insights into the nature and role of the prophets, as well as the relationship between the prophets and kings of the 1st Testament, in comparison to their relationship with the leaders of the Roman Empire in the 2nd Testament. He will speak to the constructs of the prophets of the 1st Testament, then the interpretation to involve Jesus in the Jewish saga
