CBS Alum Continuing Education Spring Course

CBS Alumnae/i courses will resume in the fall. As an alternative this spring, we are coordinating with St. Patrick-St. Anthony in downtown Hartford to bring you a weekend study of the Servant Songs in Isaiah.

THE SERVANT SONGS IN ISAIAH
Saturday, March 28, 9:30-3:30 pm
continuing to Sunday, March 29, 1:00-3:00 pm
The book of the prophet Isaiah is one of the most important and influential books of the Hebrew Scriptures. In the second section of the book (Isaiah 40-55), written just before the end of the Babylonian Exile, four passages, commonly called Servant Songs (Is 42:1-4; 49:1-7; 50:4-11; and 52:13-53:12), bring into focus the identity and the role of the servant. By way of conclusion, we will consider the ways in which the New Testament authors used these songs to clarify the identity of Jesus and his mission. Suggested Offering: $15.00. Please bring your own bag lunch for Saturday.

Place: St. Patrick-St. Anthony Parish, Hartford
Presenter: Paul Sansone
