BIBL104 – Old Testament Survey

BIBL104 – Old Testament Survey, 3 credits

This course surveys the entire Old Testament with an emphasis on its historical and theological foundation to the great ideas of the Bible–creation, transgression, redemption, and consummation. The three main genre of the Old Testament (narrative, poetry, and prophecy) will be studied along with the significance of the great eschatological covenants (Abrahamic, Davidic, Palestinian, and New) and Israel’s place in God’s plan. The student will behold the faithfulness of God toward Israel and be introduced to the nature and love of God. He will be introduced to the purpose of the Law and its typology and witness the unfolding of the Messianic anticipation and cultivate a worshipful heart.
