Rev. Dr. John Anthony Dunne

John Anthony Dunne is an Associate Professor of New Testament at Bethel University in St. Paul, MN. Dr. Dunne’s research interests lie primarily in the New Testament, the life and letters of Paul (esp. Galatians), Christian origins, and second temple Judaism. Within these frameworks he is fascinated by many things, including: theologies of suffering and mortality, ritual practices and participation with Christ, symbolism associated with ancient fermented beverages, critiques of imperial ideology, intertextuality with antecedent texts, and the reception of the Bible in contemporary popular culture.
