Understanding Matthew, Mark, and Luke: A Journey into the Synoptic Gospels

The Digital Hammurabi Podcast

In this episode of Digital Hammurabi, host Megan Lewis welcomes Dr. Mark Goodacre, a Professor of Religious Studies at Duke University, to discuss the Synoptic Gospels. Dr. Goodacre, who has an extensive academic background including degrees from the University of Oxford and several published works, shares insights into his upcoming university-level course on the Synoptic Gospels through Bart Ehrman's Biblical Studies Academy. Designed for non-academics, the course reflects Dr. Goodacre's teaching approach, which does not require prior knowledge in biblical studies. The conversation explores the significance of the Gospels, the historical Jesus, and the resources available for understanding Christian origins. Tune in to learn more about this fascinating topic and Dr. Goodacre's contributions to the field.
