OT510 Old Testament Narratives (3 credits)
Tuesdays, 1.45 pm-5.00 pm

The study of Genesis to Esther highlights that the God of the Old Testament is the same God we worship today. It has been said that “The New Testament is concealed in the Old, and the Old Testament is revealed in the New.” Many themes we find in the New Testament have their roots in the history of Israel. This study will help the student appreciate the unfolding drama of God’s redemptive plan for man. Each book advances God’s plan to raise up a chosen people and a holy nation.

Pre-requisite: BS510 Bible Study Methods and Hermeneutics.
