This course has already made understanding the old testament better. I can finally study the prophetic books.

For someone who is an avid learner and a person new to the faith, this course will hopefully be beneficial so that I can grow my full understanding of the Old Testament and why it was put in the order that it is in. Clearly they were written at different times and in different formats, but why is it put in the order that it is. There has to always be a reason behind why everything is done a certain way, once this is learned, it begins to open the readers mind even more to all of the mysteries that is God of Abraham, God of Isaac, and God of Israel.

I think the results of this learning is deeper than knowing which way the Old Testament fits together the Old Testament is inspired and understanding the reasons why it’s in the order it is I believe will help in understanding God in the book and applying that to who I am in God

The Old Testament a story of man’s creation, his rebellion, and God forgiveness. It however is not chronological so knowing the flow is important in getting the whole story.

A benefit of knowing the the flow of how the Old Testament fits together is you can see more of a big picture view. Then, when you read verse by verse you have that big picture view in mind and can better understand what you are reading.
