Diseases in the Bible and Today

On December 12, 2024, a special Többletelő evening took place, differing from the usual Wednesday gatherings. The central theme of the event was diseases in the Bible and in modern times, which we explored with the help of our guest speaker, Dr. Melinda Kolcsár, endocrinologist and university professor.

More than 40 participants—from retired medical professors to first-year university students—followed the lecture with great interest. Thanks to Dr. Kolcsár’s research, we were able to identify numerous diseases that were already present in biblical times. The evening also covered the historical and modern treatment methods of these illnesses, revealing fascinating parallels for the attendees.

The event was a true discovery for all of us, as it allowed us to examine health and healing from a new perspective by linking history and medical science. We extend our gratitude to Dr. Melinda Kolcsár for her inspiring lecture and to all participants for their active engagement!
