EarthDiverse: The Historical Jesus
REMINDER: EarthDiverse's newest History course entitled "The Historical Jesus" begins this Wednesday 27 April 7:00-9:00 (NZ time).
One typically understands Jesus as presented by the Christian religious tradition as the founder of Christianity. What then happens when he is approached by an expert in Jewish history rather than Christian history? This course contextualises Jesus within the historical, cultural, religious and political framework of the late Second Temple Period from the standpoint of Jewish history, rather than via a theological framework. This course reexamines Jesus through the cultural, religious, and political environment in which he lived and died, and which shaped his own religiosity and worldview.
This course is offered as both an in-person class at the EarthDiverse Centre in Hamilton, as a live-streamed interactive Zoom session, or by watching the recorded video sessions when they become available the next day to watch at a time more suitable to your schedule.
From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
Poll: When do you shop the sales?
Bargain hunters made the most of Boxing Day sales at Centre Place and The Base in Hamilton on Friday.
However, a marketing expert believes Boxing Day sales, long a staple of Kiwi life post-Christmas, is on the outer as Black Friday becomes more popular.
