Paul’s Prejudices | Podcast with Theologian Matthijs den Dulk

DUTCH - Stereotypes and prejudices are, unfortunately, timeless. This becomes clear once again in the new book by theologian Matthijs den Dulk, who researched the use of ethnic stereotypes in the letters of the apostle Paul. What kinds of prejudices were these, and how have they influenced the way Christianity has viewed minorities throughout history? And wasn’t Paul the one who said, “in Christ you are all one – no Jew or Greek, no male or female, no free person or slave”? How does that relate to the presence of stereotypes?
Listen to this new episode of The Reflector, in which program manager Liesbeth Jansen discusses theologian Matthijs den Dulk’s latest book 'Ethnic Stereotypes and the Letters of Paul: History and Reception'.
