Platinum Webinar: Could Jesus Read and Write?

Dear Platinum Members, Our next Quarterly Platinum Webinar is set for Wednesday, October 9, 2023, at 7:30 pm ET. For this talk, I’ll be tackling a question that has been widely debated among scholars and enthusiasts alike: Could Jesus read and write? While many have pondered this over the years, the scholarly evidence and interpretations are far from settled, and there’s more to the story than you might expect. I’ll explore the latest research and perspectives, followed by a Q&A and discussion, where we can really unpack the topic together. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Here's the Zoom link: Quarterly Platinum Webinar I hope to see you there. Bart
