BIL-450 Biblical Theology

This course will begin by surveying the various approaches that have been taken toward Biblical Theology (e.g., historical, canonical, thematic, salvation history, constructive). With this larger methodological basis, the course assignments will focus on two tasks: summarizing the main theological themes of a particular book of scripture and synthesizing a theme across both testaments of the Bible. Students will review examples of both approaches and do their own creative work in each arena using their interpretive skills. Prerequisites: 6 credit hours in 400 level BIL courses
