THE BIBLE INSTITUTE OF LOS ANGELES
ing thought and study is given upon each division. Then, at the close of the whole lesson, the teachings of the whole passage are classified; as, for example, "Teachings about Jesus Christ," "About the New Birth," etc. At the end of each twenty lessons a series of questions on the whole section is sent to the student to be answered and returned. If these answers are satisfactory, the student is allowed to take up the next section. This method is followed until the entire 140 lessons (seven sections) are concluded. The course is an admirable one for use in advanced classes in Sunday Schools, and for adult classes, etc.
Course Three Through the Bible by Books and Chapters By JOHN H. HUNTER, Secretary of the Faculty of the Institute
This course carries the student right through the Bible, from Genesis to Revelation, each book being studied as a whole, and each chapter in each book analyzed. An introduction to each book is furnished, which puts the student in possession of the facts concerning the writer of the book, when, where and why the book was written so far as the facts are positively known, or generally accepted by conservative scholars. An analysis of each book is designed to give the student a grasp of its contents by which the material can be recalled to memory. Next, the book is studied by chapters, each chapter being carefully analyzed so as to bring out the lesson-doctrinal or practical-that the chapter contains, and other valuable facts. A specially prepared blank is furnished on which the stu dent records the result of his own study. These are sent to the instructor for examination as each book, or group of books is completed. The work is carefu lly examined by the instructor and mistakes are marked in reel ink. The marked sheets are returned to the student with corresponding compar ison sheets. From the latter, the student can readily see his mistakes, or how his work could be improved . An examination on the introduction and general contents of each book is given
