[Ep #24] What is the Bible? - Part 1: Two Testaments Theology 101

    • Cristianismo

Seriously. What is the Bible? We read the Bible. We study the Bible. We say we "love" the Bible. But what is it? Have you ever taken a step back from all the details in the Bible to ask yourself that question?

What is the "formal character" of the Bible--its "nature." What is it?
- Is it a religious book?
- Is it a history book?
- Is it a self-help book ("chicken soup for your soul")?
- Is it a love letter?
- Is it a book of Jewish myths and maxims?

We are going to answer this question in three parts, and the first part is this one... Our topic of study in this lesson: The Bible is a covenant corpus. Why? Because that's its very nature!
