DIVISION OF BIBLICAL STUDIES
BIBLE
RICHARD MCNEELY, Chairman Objective : The objective of the Bible Department is to train the student in the reverent and effective use of the Bible for personal life, evangelism, and public ministry. To this end three methods of Bible study are employed. The synthetic method of Bible study is designed to enable the student to ob tain a broad view of the contents of Scripture, seeing each book as a whole and its relation to the other books. The analytical method first considers a book as a unit in the light of its au thorship, purpose, and theme, and then outlines the contents to show the relationship of each part to the whole. The expository method instructs the student in setting forth in detail the fullness of the divine truth. Premajor Requirements: Greek 101, 102. Department Major: 24 upper division units, include 302, 401, 402, and Doc trine 302. Required collateral courses are History 418; Greek 201, 202; Christian Education 201. 101 EARLY HEBREW HISTORY (3) Genesis through Deuteronomy; introduc tory problems of authorship, sources, and historical accuracy; synthetic presenta tion of the content of each book. 102 LATER HEBREW HISTORY (3) Biblical history from Joshua through Esther; Hebrew poetic form and literary devices of the poetic books.
