How well do you know the Bible? Do you know the stories? Do you know how the Bible is organized and how those texts were chosen? Have you ever thought about all the different ways people approach the Bible and decided for yourself what to think? If you said no to any of these questions, you need What Is the Bible? This six-week study in basic biblical literacy assumes no prior knowledge of the Bible and is not biased toward any particular Christian tradition.
It is the first course in the popular set of Bible studies Exploring the Bible: The Dickinson Series.
A detailed Leader's Guide for this study is sold separately.
You can learn more about the series and how you can earn a Certificate in Biblical Literacy at exploringthebible.
Other volumes in the series include: Volume 1: What Is the Bible? Volume 3: Introducing the New Testament PRAISE FOR EXPLORING THE BIBLE: THE DICKINSON SERIES Here is the most readable, complete, fair and accurate aid to the study of the Bible now available.
I recommend it highly.
Harvey Cox Hollis Research Professor of Divinity Harvard Divinity School Exploring the Bible: The Dickinson Series is a magnificent Bible study resource.
The questions we all have about the Bible are addressed in clear, accessible, and often witty language, and questions we didn't even know to ask are introduced in lively and provocative ways.
Those who have studied the Bible for years will find their understanding deepened, and those for whom the Bible is a new and unfamiliar land will find a reliable roadmap.
The Leader's Guides are filled with stimulating teaching suggestions.
