In his seminal work on modular curves and the Eisenstein ideal, Mazur studied the existence of congruences between certain Eisenstein series and newforms, proving that Eisenstein ideals associated to weight 2 cusp forms of prime level are locally principal. In this talk, we re-examine Eisenstein congruences, incorporating a notion of "depth of congruence," in order to understand the local structure of Eisenstein ideals associated to weight 2 cusp forms of squarefree level.
