Course Overview
Are you curious about what the Bible actually says about when life begins?
Uncovering Biblical Insights
In this illuminating two-lecture course, we delve into the fundamental question: When does life begin? Is it at conception, during gestation, viability, or at birth? What does the bible actually say about one of the most contentious topics in modern times?
Contrary to common assumptions, the Bible's stance on this topic may surprise you. Led by esteemed biblical scholar Dr. Bart Ehrman, this course confronts these complex questions head-on, dissecting the biblical perspectives on the unborn fetus. We will examine both sides of the debate, analyzing passages that advocate for the humanity of the embryo or fetus, potentially framing intentional termination as murder, alongside passages that may suggest otherwise.
Fact-based Exploration
This course is NOT about taking sides in the abortion debate.
Instead, it's a factual exploration of the biblical texts, free from personal bias or agenda. Dr. Ehrman delves into the historical and cultural context surrounding these scriptures, providing a comprehensive understanding of their implications.
