Studying the Book of Hebrews

Hebrews is a bit of a mystery. This series explores its contexts, the unique picture of Jesus that it paints, and the role of a genealogy in understanding the world that was, the one that is, and the world that is to come. The themes of endurance, rest, and faith transcend time and connect the audience of Hebrews and communities of believers today – all believers who share a common inheritance.

Westminster Seminars begin the new program year on September 11 by welcoming Professor Jennifer Kaalund to lead us in a new way to look at Hebrews. The four-week series runs through October 2.

Jennifer joined the faculty of Pittsburgh Theological Seminary as Associate Professor of New Testament in June 2021. Her book, Reading Hebrews and 1 Peter with the African American Great Migration: Diaspora, Place, and Identity (2018), explores the constructed and contested identities in Hebrews and 1 Peter through the lens of the “New Negro,” a similarly vulnerable identity formed during the Great Migration in the United States in the early 20th century. It is a great pleasure to introduce her to Westminster.
