3rd Annual Academic Symposium - Entangled Jewish and Christian Perspectives - Keynote Lectures

Saint Vladimir’s Seminary held its Third Annual Academic Symposium on November 13-15, 2024.
This year’s symposium, titled “I Saw the Lord (Isa 6.1): Entangled Jewish and Christian Perspectives on the Encounter with God,” gathered leading Orthodox Christian and Jewish scholars from around the world, who reflected on the manner in which theophanic texts-biblical accounts of Divine Revelation to the patriarchs and prophets-have always been and remain foundational to their respective doctrinal and spiritual traditions.
The symposium began on Wednesday, November 13, at 6 p.m. (EST), in the Metropolitan Philip Auditorium, with two keynote addresses, shown in this video:
His Eminence, Archbishop Alexander Golitzin (Emeritus Professor, Marquette University): “THEOPHANEIA: Studying Orthodox Theology with an Eye to Judaism?”
Rabbi Reuven R. Kimelman (Professor of Classical Judaica, Brandeis University): “Who takes the cue from whom in the Qedushah / Sanctus, angels or humans?”
