Life and Work magazine April 2007 issue review
The Easter issue of the magazine of the Church of Scotland offers a fresh insight into the disciple who betrayed Christ. The suggestion that Judas was invented as a warning to Christians 'tempted to apostasy or betrayal' is investigated by Larry Hurtado, Professor of New Testament Language, Literature and Theology at Edinburgh University.In addition, The Rev Jane Barron, the Church of Scotland’s first woman minister at St Andrew’s Church, Jerusalem, offers an update of daily life in the Holy Land and warns of the continuing decline in the number of Christians living in the 'cradle of Christianity'.
And there's a profile of the 'presbyterian agnostic' Lord Sutherland of Houndwood, the former Principal of the University of Edinburgh and the chair of the Royal Commission which implemented [sic] free care for the elderly in Scotland.
Full story at the Church of Scotland.
