Stephanie Binder

Dr. Stephanie Binder, a Classics scholar specializing in Jewish-Greek-Roman relations, unpacks the crucial split between Judaism and Christianity. She explores how early Christians, originally Jewish, grew hostile and how church fathers shaped this narrative. The discussion highlights the role of the Council of Nicaea in defining orthodoxy and the importance of communal identity. Binder also emphasizes the need for Jews and Christians to study each other's histories to combat antisemitism and foster understanding.
