The Scripture
The Scripture
Project description
What?
In well-written, carefully researched and written academic essay of 1000 words double-spaced, choose on Bible passage from the list below. Study the passage in several
different translations. Research the author, the occasion, the message and then summarize your findings in essay form. Why was this scripture written? How would it
have been received by the first hearers, and how is the passage understood today? Where is it placed in the canon, and why? Are there any literary or symbolic motifs?
What did you learn (if anything) from this passage?
Further, in preparing for your paper:
– Be sure your paper included a thesis (topic) sentence that provides a summary statement of your essay.
– Including an organization and/or ‘scaffolding’ statement.
– Each paragraph in turn must have it’s own topic sentence. They paper should also include transition sentences, internal summaries to help the reader follow the
development of the thesis.
How?
You must consult at least one in-print reference work (NIV Study Bible notes, a Biblical commentary, a theologian). These sources must be included in a bibliography
and properly notated throughout. One good online resource that digitalized reputable works is www.ccel.org (then ‘study a passage’) and biblestudytools.com
(I wrote two sources because of what it’s asking for here).
Format:
Footnote (not endnote) any and all citations and sources. Include bibliography. Include a title page with name. Remember, appearance does matter. The paper should be
completely free of grammatical and typographical error.
