Ot 620 Pentateuch, Joseph R. Dongell

I. General Purpose: This course aims to continue fostering Bible study which is: methodical (following orderly procedure, rather than relying on chance), inductive (promoting direct personal study of the text prior to use of secondary sources), structural (observing logical connections as a key component of meaning), literary (recognizing the literary character of Scripture and the significance of literary context), historical (honoring the location of Biblical texts in their particular historical settings), theological (placing the passage in the context of the Scripture and Christian doctrine), and reverent (pursuing Biblical study humbly, prayerfully, under the influence of the Spirit)

This course involves a careful examination of the Book of Acts according to the inductive method of Bible study introduced in the first IBS course and builds on the methodology of that first course by further use of what has been learned and by emphasizing the study of the book as a whole and of larger units within the book. Particular attention is given to the process of application moving towards proclamation (preaching and teaching) of the biblical text. The emphasis is upon the structure and major themes found in the Book of Acts, with the Gospel of Luke employed …
