A study of the first five books of the Old Testament. Called The Pentateuch or The Five Books of Moses is to familiarize the earnest Bible student with the origin of mankind and his relationship with the Creator. This study of the Bible’s first Five Books, Genesis, Exodus Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy is a consecutive history covering the first two thousand five hundred years of human history; they constitute a progressive spiritual unity, setting forth, in their main features, what has been described as “the order of the experience of the people of God in all ages.” In addition, these first Five Books of the Old Testament will give us a progressive fivefold revelation of God in His relationship with His people.
A historical study of how the Bible has been preserved and handed down to this present day generation. This study will equip the student to answer such questions as: How and when did the books of the Bible have their origin? In what sense are these books different from other books? How have these books been preserved and transmitted to us? In order to gain the answers to these questions the student will span thousands of years, travel to various regions of the world and into the hearts of countless unnamed people whose first love was the Word of God. It was God's purpose that by means of a written record He be revealed to all ages and tongues as Creator and Redeemer.
A study of the last twelve books of the Old Testament – Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zepha-niah, Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi called the Minor Prophets to familiarize the earnest Bible student with the themes, messages and structure of these prophetic writings.
Hermeneutics may be described as the development and study of theories of the interpretation and understanding of texts. In contemporary usage in biblical studies, hermeneutics refers to the study of the interpretation of biblical texts. It is the study of theories and methods of the interpretation of all texts and systems of meaning.
