Course Number: NT314
Professor:
J. Oliver Buswell, Jr., Ph.D., D.D.
Former President of Wheaton College (Wheaton, Illinois) and Shelton College (New York City, New York) and Dean of Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri
Course Description:
From the earliest days of the church, believers have wrestled with the relationship between the old and new covenants. Humanity’s inability to fulfill the Law clearly showed the need for forgiveness, and God’s elaborate sacrificial system demonstrated sin’s consequences. Yet how were Jewish believers to view Jesus? What were the implications of the Messiah being the Great High Priest? In this course, students wrestle with these and other theological questions as they probe Christ’s death and resurrection. Buswell helps learners understand the book’s message while challenging today’s “great cloud of witnesses” to have complete faith in a sovereign and loving God.
Course Objectives:

- Grasp the message of Hebrews.
