BIBL 5043 - PASTORAL EPISTLES

This course is a historical and exegetical exploration of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus, examining how they functioned in the church context to which they were written. Themes will be addressed through exegetical study, including ecclesiastical organization, relationship between orthodoxy and heresy, the role of women in the household and the church, pneumatological witness to “sound doctrine,” and pastoral identity and function. The implications of these themes will be related to the present church and culture.
