Teaching


At the Faculty of Theology of the University of Göttingen, I have frequently conducted the proseminar “Introduction to New Testament Exegesis.” My teaching experience also extends to the HAWK Hildesheim. For the winter term of 2024–2025, I am excited to offer again a course at the University of Göttingen titled “Introduction to the Septuagint.” Additionally, in the past, I have taught a variety of courses, including:

  • Jesus der Davidssohn in den Evangelien (Jesus the Son of David in the Gospels)
  • Paulus als Apostel und Theologe (Paul as Apostle and Theologian)
  • Septuaginta und Neues Testament (Septuagint and New Testament)
  • Rezeption und Transformation der Septuaginta im Urchristentum (Reception and Transformation of the Septuagint in Early Christianity)
  • Frühchristliche Briefliteratur des 2. Jahrhunderts (Early Christian Epistle Literature of the Second Century)
  • Salomonisches Schrifttum zwischen Magie und Poesie (Solomonic Literature between Magic and Poetry)
  • Einleitung in den griechischen Psalter (Introduction to the Greek Psalter)
  • Einführung in die Septuaginta (Introduction to the Septuagint)
