BIB 753 - New Testament Theology and Exegesis

Credits 3
A study of the major presuppositions, theologies and themes of the New Testament. The goal is not primarily to master a theological system. It is rather to learn how to think biblically and theologically about crucial issues addressed within the New Testament and relevant for the church in mission today. This course combines elements of the usual "New Testament Theology" usually a part of the Master of Divinity program, and "New Testament Theology & Exegesis" as part of a component of the Presbyterian Ordination Preparation process. The "Exegetical" portion is primarily embedded in the Research Paper Assignment.
