The aim of this module is to begin the process of transforming the students’ view of the Bible by demonstrating the importance of genre and historical context and, thus, providing the foundations of a more critically aware methodology. This foundation will serve as a basis for further modules in which these hermeneutical, exegetical, theological and applied foundations will be built upon.

This is a Level 5 Theology Common Core module, shared with the BAs in Music and Worship and the BA in Theology and Counselling programmes.
