Updated the page for the second semester 

Jesus Christ, Revelation of God

This page is  intended to accompany the seminar by the same name (TST216) at the Gregorian University, Rome .

The Ordo (university prospectus) describes the seminar as follows

In this seminar we will look closely at the person of Jesus. We will begin from the biblical accounts, and then go on to explore the development of the understanding of Jesus through the ages. This will lead to a discussion of the ways in which Jesus reveals the Trinity to us, in particular through the Paschal Mystery, and how this is foundational for our understanding of and relationship to God.
