Theology
using both historical and modern approaches, learn the
basics of the ancient religions of israel – those of the three
large monotheistic religions, and of the smaller minorities
represented in the country. As the birth place of both Judaism
and christianity, and a significant area for the development
of islam, israel is the ideal laboratory to recreate history, and
explore the ancient roots of many religions.
