This course introduces students to the history, doctrine and background features of those books of the
Bible that were written prior to the incarnation of Jesus Christ. Our primary goal in this course is to help
students become better readers of the Old Testament. Every reader of the Bible is an interpreter of the
Bible. We want to help
you
become an active interpreter by describing central doctrines, and some of
the historical, geographic and cultural factors, which figure into the formation of the He
brew Scriptures
we designate the "Old Testament.”
