Spent much of my study time working in Biblical Hebrew. Continued Chapter 9 on the Construct chain. It seem that the progress gets slower the further I get into the grammar due to the need for constant review to solidify concepts.
Lord, help me learn the original language of your Holy Word for the glory of God.
Amen
Continued with Lectures in Biblical Theology: The Patriarchs. Read the First chapter of Biblical Theology by Vos.
Took notes on a Yellow pad on the nature and extent of Biblical Theology. Review:
Theology is the science concerning God.
4 departments of Theology: Exegetical, Historical, Systematic, Practical
BT see the organic nature in the historic unfolding of the Drama of redemption.
Proceeds in Epochs( Abraham -----> David ------> The prophets ------> Christ -------> Church Age --------> End State
"All that God discloses of Himself has come in response to the practical religious needs of His people as these emerged in the course of history" pg. 9
Biblical Theology is a straight line while systematic theolgy is a circle. BT --> the flow of doctrine. ST ----> the interrelatedness of doctrine.
Belongs to the supreme end of all theology: The Glory of GOD.
