The Genesis Gallery
In the course of Trinity Term, we will be exploring the Book of Genesis through the resources provided by the Visual Commentary on Scripture. Genesis is one of the foundational texts not just for Christian tradition but for Western culture. It continues to animate and excite our understanding of what it means to be human. It informs our understanding of creation, but also speaks of the rich tapestry of human living, with all its joys as well as its sorrows, our hopes as well as our fears. Each passage below has a link to different elements of the Visual Commentary on Scripture. Each exhibition consists of three images, the relevant passage from Luke, and a theological reflection. In our sessions, we shall draw on these resources and explore the way in which a variety of different artists have drawn inspiration from Luke's narrative.
You will be able to join us via Zoom for these Bible Studies. Please email vicar@universitychurch.ox.ac.uk for further information. You will be sent joining instructions on the day.
