Middle School Biblical Studies

The Biblical Studies Department presents the biblical narrative as the defining story for human life. The Middle School curriculum focuses on biblical literacy, particularly the central themes of the Old and New Testaments and the revelation of God in the person of Jesus. Upon completion of the Middle School Biblical Studies courses, students will be prepared to move on to the Upper School curriculum which reviews these themes, presents theological conclusions and implications, and explores the skills and insights necessary to build a spiritual and ethical life.

Bible 6: God's People in the Ancient World

God’s People in the Ancient World introduces students to the covenant relationship between God and the Israelites. In this course, students examine how God blesses and admonishes ancient civilizations through His covenant relationship which He establishes with the Israelites’ patriarchal triad of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. During the first semester, students read Genesis and Exodus, and examine the faith of Abraham and his descendants who await the Promised Land, after their deliverance from bondage in Egypt, and receive of God’s law. In the second semester, by study of the Old Testament continues as students read the books of Esther, Daniel, and Jonah in order to focus on how the Hebrews interacted with other civilizations in the Ancient Near East. Afterwards, students will extensively study the Gospel St. Mark. Upon completion of Mark’s Gospel, we will survey select chapters from the book of Acts to learn the history of the early Church and the spread of Christianity throughout the Roman Empire. Throughout the course, we will examine the theme of God’s salvific promise to bless not only the Israelites but all the nations through His Son, Jesus.

Bible 7: Old Testament Survey

Old Testament Survey continues the focus on the covenants God made with his people. Beginning with a brief overview of Genesis and Exodus, students then focus on the judges, kings, priests, and prophets and gain an understanding of roles and interactions among them. By analyzing the history of Israel and tracing the thread of God’s grace throughout, they perceive the need for a Messiah. The course comes to a climax with the Gospel of Matthew and the life of Jesus Christ, the bringer of the new covenant.
