Outline of LPL Module on Understanding the New Testament
This LPL Module is intended to provide an introduction to:
- The context of the New Testament: the historical and the socio-religious background of the New Testament (the Context of the NT);
- The text of the new Testament; and
- The basic principles of interpreting the New Testament texts.
It is assumed that students are conversant with the content of all the New Testament books (and have read through the New Testament more than one time).
It is expected that students will study the three basic textbooks listed below, preferably before attending the course.
