Abstract
This course is an introduction to the study and interpretation of biblical literature. The primary tools and methods of biblical scholarship will be employed and evaluated through an examination of selected texts from both the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament. The role of context will be highlighted and discussed at length since both the originating context of a particular text and the context of later readers have a profound impact on how the Bible is understood and interpreted.
