Marvin R. Wilson

Apart from writing over 200 articles or reviews Wilson is also a frequent speaker in synagogues, conferences, and on TV and radio.

One of Wilson’s most notable contributions is his textbook Our Father Abraham: Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith which is in its 29th printing.

He also served as primary scholar for the award winning, two-hour national public TV documentary Jews & Christians: A Journey of Faith.

[1] Wilson joined Edwin Yamauchi (Professor of History emeritus, Miami University) as co-editor and author of the four-volume reference work Dictionary of Daily Life in Biblical and Post-biblical Antiquity (Hendrickson Publishers, 2014–16).

A collection of twenty essays written by Christian and Jewish scholars was presented as a surprise to Wilson at a recent Gordon College commencement.
