This week was the fourth week in the six-week Bible Survey class I’m doing at my church.
We didn’t quite get to the Introduction of the New Testament like I had planned. This class was a bit different than other ones. Rather than focusing on a lot fo content of each book, this week was mostly a “tour” of these sections of the Bible and History, with some “highlights” along the way. The main point was to give people a bigger picture of these things to help them read the Bible themselves.
Just like last week, my notes are very incomplete. Most everything I said is in there, but I definitely want to provide a lot more in the notes than I say–and that hasn’t been filled in for most of the books so far. I will be spending the next two weeks filling that in. Once I’m done, I’ll let you all know. Thanks for your patience.
Lastly, I know I did a very poor job at telling the story of the Intertestamental history. I will try this again and condense it more in the next class. I will be much better prepared then.
This Lecture Covers:
- Principles to keep in mind to help when reading the Prophetic books
- Highlights from the Prophetic Books
- Survey of the content and some of the background of the Wisdom Books of the Old Testament, with a special focus on the content of Job
- Survey of the History between the Old Testament and New
