Ken Baker: Wisdom Christian College Student Forum

Here is last week’s Lecture on Philippians 3  and the updated  University Schedule. Please note that you need to get going with the choice of 4-12 verses for your exegesis paper. This is a major level 2 assignment and needs an appropriate amount of preparation. Kairete!

Next week’s test will carry 40% of the total module mark, so please make careful preparation. We will be working from the MT of Exodus 3: 1-22 and you will be expected to translate, and make grammatical, textual, and exegetical comments. Please email any queries ( and no, you are not permitted to bring Bibles into class!). 

Here’s some of the material from last week’s class to aid your preparation:

Exodus 3 9-22: Hebrew to English

Commentary notes on Exodus 3 

Remember: your exegesis should include grammatical points, any textual issues relating to the passage and word meanings where appropriate, as well as straightforward exegetical notes.

And don’t panic: it’s only 45 minutes. Enjoy!

Another instalment of academic sites of particualr interest to the postgraduate class. (more…)

Here is the link to Roger Nicole’s 1958 essay on the new-testament-use-of-the-old-testament.doc which is a quite thorough and comprehensive introduction to a wide-ranging topic.
