Description:
The immediate purpose of tMs Syllabus is to facilitate the work in the class in New Testament English in the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. It is not designed for general use, though other institutions have adopted it. The book, revised throughout, serves the function of a broad outline of the New Testament history with precise references to the text-books used for the daily lessons. The method pursued is the study of the sources of our knowledge as far as practicable with the aid of useful helps. The course follows the historical development of the events of the period and the interpretation of the New Testament books is based on historical exegesis. The whole of the New Testament era is covered in one session of eight months and the work is of necessity rapid, while comprehensive. This grasp of the whole period is essential for proper interpretation of any single position. The more important books, with various critical standpoints, are mentioned from time to time. The plan and spirit of the course are due to John A. Broadus, who established it in 1859, the first course in the English New Testament in any theological seminary so far as I know. All ministers need a thorough grip upon the English New Testament whether they do or do not know the Greek. The knowledge of each reacts favorably upon the other. Neither takes the place of the other. Both are necessary to the real student of the New Testament. The student who enters this class ought to know at least what is in the authors Studies in the New Testament.
