  • BIBL 504: New Testament Study II

    3.00 Credits
    Eastern University

    This course covers the thirteen letters of Paul in the New Testament. Because these documents are pastoral letters, written to address specific problems, queries, and situations in the life of individuals and churches, we will pay attention to historical, cultural, social, and religious influences of the first century milieu, while addressing hermeneutical implications for today's world and church.

  • BIBL 512: Gospels and Acts

    3.00 Credits
    Eastern University

    Gospels and Acts is a foundational course in the study of the New Testament, covering Matthew, Mark, Luke-Acts, and John. 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. By doing so, we will be less prone to impose 30 modern standards and worldviews on the biblical text. 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.
