RST 104 Introduction to the Bible

3 credit hours

Students will study the Bible, both the Hebrew Scriptures and the Christian New Testament, or an introductory level in light of recent biblical scholarship. Central to the course is a concern to determine the original intent of the biblical authors and how readers of the Bible can responsibly apply the results of such an investigation today. To pursue this goal, students will explore the historical contexts of the authors and how that affects the manner in which the texts were written.
