LT271 Study the Bible with Logos: Jonah 1
Overview
Progressing from Bible reading to serious Bible study is a difficult task, especially if you have never been trained how to do it. Study tools like Logos Bible Software are invaluable, but can be daunting, too. The Logos Pro Team helps you overcome both these hurdles in LT271. Through a case study on Jonah 1:1-16, you’ll learn to Observe, Interpret, and Apply the Bible, an efficient and rewarding method you can use with any passage of Scripture. We’ll teach you ten specific steps in Bible study, and show you how to use the tools in Logos to gain the most insight from every step.
Top Highlights
“There are four contexts we need to be sensitive to when we study the Bible: the literary context, the intertextual context, the historical context, and the cultural context.” (source)
“The literary context involves two main areas of exploration: genre and the surrounding context.” (source)
“Along with the answers to the investigative questions, what else should we be looking for? Repetition of words, phrases, or ideas is a primary way that Old Testament authors communicated their message.” (source)
“The intertextual context includes passages in the rest of Scripture that are somehow related” (source)
“God orchestrates a storm and a great fish swallows Jonah, he obeys God’s command. But when Nineveh—a major city of the Assyrian Empire and Israel’s enemy—repents after listening to Jonah, he is infuriated. The book’s lesson becomes clear in the end: God’s care extends to all who call on Him—even those who previously stood against His people. His mercy is truly for all.’” (source)
