at Lexington Theological Seminary,
Cook will address institute partici-
pants on "Five Jewish Approaches to
Jesus and Paul: A Critique and
Defense," speaking at 9:30 a.m. on
Jesus' seemingly contradictory state-
ments about Jews and Judaism and
Paul's possible influence on gospel
depictions of Jesus. At 10:45 a.m., he
will discuss "The Evangelists' responses
to Jewish challenges of Christianity," the
evangelists' anti-Jewish intensification of
their sources and the evangelists' confor-
mance of Jesus to Jewish scriptural
imagery.
Cook will speak at Shabbat services
Friday at 7:30 p.m. on "Praying for and
Preying on the Jews: Responding to the
Missionary Threat." On Saturday at
9:15 a.m., he will discuss "Biblical
Stories in Jewish and Christian
Theologies: Competing Interpretations
of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, Noah
and the flood, the binding of Isaac and
Jonah and the whale" with the Saturday
Torah class.
Finally, he will speak at 10:30 a.m.
Shabbat services on "Christianity's
Passover Syndrome: the Impact of
Upcoming Church Seders on Christian-
Jewish Relations.'
- The community is welcome to
attend both the Friday programs,
Shabbat services on Friday and Saturday
and the Saturday Torah study. No reser-
vations are necessary; there is no charge
for any of the events.
The Glazer Institute, an event draw-
ing 300 clergy from the metropolitan
area, originated in 1942 when Glazer
invited a small group of ministers to the
temple to hear a lecture on Judaism and
share mutual concerns. The institute
was renamed in his memory following
his death in 1952.
In 1999, following the sudden
passing of his widow, Ada S. Glazer,
the institute was once again
renamed; its mission, however,
remains unchanged. It continues to
provide a setting for scholarly pre-
sentations and shared concerns.
