Course Overview

This course is ideal for those interested in the many important issues related to these exceptionally crucial books.  The course will study the foundational people, places, events and themes of creation and covenant as essential to biblical theology, as well as explore critical issues of authorship and composition, and critical interpretive challenges. Because this course is offered in partnership between the Brookes Bible College, the MIKRA Research Laboratory, and the Historical Faith Society, participants will have exclusive access to many of the manuscript/scroll forms of the Torah held, analyzed, and exhibited by the MIKRA Lab in its various exhibits.  Each week, new manuscripts will be presented in class, many of which have never yet been fully analyzed but are currently in process.  Attendees can expect dynamic and interactive instruction that includes unique discussion of the process of textual transmission throughout the ages, as well as important theological and worldview contributions made by these formative books. This is a course that you will not want to miss.
