Our First Assignment

Great class tonight! We hope and pray this is as exciting for
you as it is for us to spend this time with you!

Here's our first assignment:

  • Using the "Study Aids & Resources" to the right....
  • Read and re-read Jeremiah 29:1-14. Do this as frequently as you can over the next day or two.
  • Read Jer 1 and determine what the main theme of Jeremiah is. Why was this book written and what does Jeremiah want to say to his readers? 
    • One of the online commentaries may be helpful in figuring this out. 
    • Once you know the theme of the book, how does chapter 29 fit in with that theme?
      • You may find it helpful to look at ch 28 and the rest of 29.
  • Identify the key words in the original passage (vs 1-14)
  • Using the online resources, find the meaning of those key words. 
    • Blue Letter Bible will be most helpful in doing this
      • you can do this by entering your key words in the "LexiConc" box the the right of the passage in the reading pane. Click here
        • Make sure you choose "ESV" as your reading version
  • Jot down some notes explaining what you've learned. 
See you next Thursday at 7:00 PM!
