Please read the entire text of the Old Testament, from a non-paraphrased translation (no NLT, the Message, or the Passion Translation).

This course lays a strong foundation for the study of the Old Testament by surveying the text through a chronological lens, and exploring the different literary genres and themes within it. A strong emphasis will be placed on understanding the development of thoughts and theology in the Hebrew mind, allowing students to see where each book fits in God’s unveiling of Himself to the nation of Israel and to the world.

Students who successfully complete the course will have a solid understanding of the narrative arcs and theological trajectories within the text, and will be better prepared to preach, teach and rightly divide the word of truth.

This course also prepares students for future courses on specific book studies within the canon.

As a prerequisite to the coursework, please read the entire text of the Old Testament, from a non-paraphrased translation (no NLT, the Message, or the Passion Translation).
