The Philosophy of Philo: Bridging Worlds.

Because that's exactly what we're going to explore today. We're talking about a philosopher you've probably never heard of, living in a city that no longer exists, writing in a language most of us can't read, about 2,000 years ago. And yet—and this is what blows my mind—his ideas are everywhere around you. In the Gospel of John. In Christian theology. In how we think about the relationship between faith and reason. In our very concept of the divine Word.
Look at this subtitle: "Bridging Worlds." That's not just poetic language. That's literally what Philo of Alexandria did with his life. He stood at one of the most remarkable intersections in human history—where Jewish faith met Greek philosophy, where Jerusalem encountered Athens, where ancient wisdom collided with cosmopolitan culture.
