the Gospel of Matthew will be studied. Significant teachings such as the Nature of the
Scriptures, Interpretation of the Old Testament, the Identity of Christ, the Kingdom of God, the
Trinity and Baptism, the Apostolic Mission and Ministry, the Return of Christ, the Lord’s
Supper, Jesus’ Death as Atonement and the Resurrection will be examined. Faithful interpretation
of the Gospel of Matthew for preaching and teaching will be modeled in lectures and
mentored in exegetical groups. Note 6.
EXT 111 GOSPELS II
As a continuation of the focus on the centrality of the revelation of God in Jesus Christ begun
in Gospels I, major portions of the Greek text of the Gospel of Luke and some portions of the
Greek text of the Gospel of Mark will be studied. Special attention will be given to content and
teaching in these Gospels that is unique from Matthew. Faithful interpretation of the Gospel of
Luke and the Gospel of Mark for preaching and teaching will be modeled in lectures and mentored
in exegetical groups. Notes 6 and 7.
EXT 116 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK READINGS
