Old Testament II
ElectivesElectiveBilingual
Second Old Testament course: poetry and prophecy read in context. Students learn to distinguish the historical setting, the theological message, and the passage’s place in the larger story, to back every claim with a verse, and to acknowledge honestly what the text does not allow them to assert.
