The Eschatological and Pastoral Epistles. A thorough study of five of Paul’s letters, from 1 Thessalonians through Titus. Examining each of the five letters includes an analysis of the biblical author, date, readers, historical and cultural setting, purpose, themes, special features, and outlines. Also, studying each epistle involves the exegesis and analysis of each paragraph in its literary context, with an emphasis on the two main hermeneutical questions: What did this paragraph mean to the first readers? And what does it mean to us today? Continuing to the top of the hermeneutical ladder, each lesson identifies timeless, cross-cultural principles for every paragraph of these five letters. Interactive questions, case studies, and illustrations guide students to evaluate and apply these principles to the situations believers face today.
