BIBL 503 - New Testament Study I

Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

Biblical Studies

Description:

New Testament Study 1 is a foundational course in the study of the New Testament, covering Matthew, Mark, Luke-Acts, John, Hebrews, James, and Revelation. In order to appropriate the message of the New Testament for the world today, we need to first place ourselves back in the political, religious, and cultural world of the first century, and respect these documents as ancient narratives, written within a particularized historical setting and readership, by people of faith for the community of faith. Being more aware of our presuppositions, we can better allow the biblical authors to speak for themselves in their unique witness to the life of Jesus and the early church.
