BBL 3423 New Testament Book Study: The Synoptic Gospels

Three hours (On Campus)

The course offers a critical and theological introduction to the study of the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark and Luke), with particular emphasis on their interrelations and a more detailed exploration of one of the Synoptics. The more detailed study addresses the composition, narrative, literary features and theology of the selected book and explores the context-social, political and religious-in which it was written. Special focus is placed on major topics in the selected Gospel’s interpretation and reception through the ages. Meets the Arts and Humanities requirement of the Core Curriculum.
