Old Testament Survey

Introduction. Originally created for a high school-level Bible study class, this downloadable 30 lesson series surveys the Old Testament books in chronological order (when the content of the book most likely occurred or when the various letters were likely written). The lessons consist only of a scripture assignment with questions to guide students in their study of the associated scriptures using their BIble and Bible study aids. There is no supplemental reading material. As a result, this survey is intended for a more mature audience (e.g., high school and above).
