Description

This course will span the disciplines of exegesis, biblical theology, and systematic theology. When we are clear what Paul was communicating in his letter to the Colossians to his intended readership, we shall try to rethink and restate it for our time.Greek will be referred to, but the basis of study will be the English text, as in ESV, NLT, or either version of NIV.
