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)

Nt 511 The Gospel Of Mark, David Loren Thompson

Syllabi

This course seeks to introduce the various aspects of methodical, inductive Bible study, especially observation and interpretation. It intends, by study of Mark’s Gospel, to foster Bible study which values orderly procedure, direct personal contact with the text, analysis of relations which hold between text units, and recognition of the book as the crucial context for interpretation. The English Bible will serve as the text of entry for the study, with emphasis also on appropriate use of the Greek New Testament and “original language” skills and tools for interpreting the book of Mark.
