Strategies for review:
1. Make a one sentence summary of each of Prof. Albertson's lectures.
2. Make sure you can answer all of the study questions
3. Put the primary sources in a larger context. Relate them to the three transitions in Christianity prior to 400CE (See below). How do the primary sources relate to each other? Try to put them in dialogue with each other.
3 Transitions
Judaism ---> Greco-Roman/Hellenistic = cultural
Martyrdom ---> Religion of the Empire/ Institutional Religion = political
Apocalyptic ---> Ethics & Institutions (acceptance of the delayed apocalypse)
