121E Old Testament Intensive: The Pentateuch, Part I

This course covers the Bible text in Genesis.

In the beginning . . . with these words in Genesis, the student begins to study the beginnings of God's plans and purposes. He creates the heavens and the earth, creates Adam and Eve in His image who later mar that image by their fall into sin. He chooses a covenant people through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the beginning of the nation Israel through which God would bless the entire world. With Adam and Eve's fall and the later giving of the Mosaic Law, the student begins to see god's plan of redemption unfold, the need for a blood sacrifice to atone sin.
