Course Info

Do you want to understand divine visions, dreams, and trances? Dive into the Hebrew Bible, Enochic literature, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the New Testament to uncover how prophets and seers, from Abraham to Isaiah and beyond, experienced profound encounters with the Creator-God of Israel. This course examines the nature of true and false visions, the symbolism of dreams, and the evolution of visionary traditions, revealing their moral and spiritual significance.

The lessons will explore questions like: How did Biblical figures "see" God? What distinguished divine messages from deceptive ones? From Isaiah’s vivid visions to the mystical accounts of the Second Temple Period, this mini-course illuminates the interplay of revelation, mystery, and morality, offering fresh insights into the timeless quest to connect with the divine. A must for those curious about Biblical spirituality and prophecy.
