Old Testament Exegesis: Understanding and Applying the Old Testament (BI205) teaches how to study, interpret, and apply the Hebrew portion of the Christian Scriptures (the Old Testament). The course breaks down the exegetical process into twelve comprehensive and logical stages that fall into five overarching categories—text, observation, context, meaning, and application. It covers everything from textual criticism and Hebrew grammar, to historical and literary context, to biblical and systematic theologies in a Christ-exalting way that equips the exegete to accurately proclaim Christ and His gospel from the first three-fourths of the Bible.
