BIBLE INSTITUTE OF LOS ANGELES
II. Bible Synthesis
The Synthetic method of Bible study aims to provide the student with the following: First: A comprehensive grasp of the general contents of the entire Bible so that th e main features of its revelation may be seen and understood. Second: A bringing together and summing up of the general contents so that the mutual relationships and harmony of the component parts are recognized. Third: A recognition of the progressive character and development of the divine reve lation as set forth in the Scrip tures. Fourth: A knowledge of the clispensational teaching of the Word of Goel . The Synthetic method pursued by the class in this study is the reading beforehand of an appointed number of chapters in a book of the Bible; indeed, at times, a whole book is read at one sitting. The main sections of the book are then taken up and considered , and finally the teaching of the book is presented in unified form .
