During the Spring Semester 2010 at Veritas, we are pleased to offer the following NEW courses!
FOUNDATIONS OF BIBLE INTERPRETATION
HERM102 This introductory course studies foundational elements and basic principles of hermeneutics. Among other things attention is given to whether the Bible itself provides any guidance on how it should be interpreted.
Textbooks: Evangelical Hermeneutics: The New Versus the Old (Robert L. Thomas), Principles of Biblical Hermeneutics (J. Edwin Hartill).
BIBL6362
A straightforward study of the first Gospel covering its distinctive features and structure. The course holds to an early dating for the Book and a premillennial understanding of its prophetic elements.
Textbooks: Moody Gospel Commentary: Matthew (Ed Glasscock), New Testament Survey (Robert G. Gromacki).
BIBL6370
In this course, Dr. Steve Lewis' lectures provide an overview of the apostle Paul's letter to the Galatians. This is one of the most autobiographical letters of Paul, and it gives several glimpses into the history of the early church. It also provides one of the most comprehensive outlines of the doctrine of justification by faith alone.
Textbooks: New American Commentary: Galatians (Timothy George), New Testament Survey (Robert G. Gromacki).
This course covers the Pauline letters of Colossians (taught by Dr. Garland), and the Book of Philemon (taught by Dr. Henebury). Dr. Henebury also adds some material on "The Worldview of Colossians."
Textbooks: The Epistles to the Colossians, to Philemon, and to the Ephesians (F.F. Bruce), New Testament Survey (Robert G. Gromacki).
ALL OUR COURSES are available for enrollment! Please contact an instructor if you need guidance.
Note: Undergraduates are encouraged to enroll and participate in the graduate-level courses; the study involved will be well worth the effort! And as always, anyone may audit the classes, whether for trial purposes, or simply for personal edification. While we encourage students to enroll for our semesters, it is possible to do a course at any time if flexibility is an issue.
