Front 25

1.) Define “inspiration.” What does the Bible say about inspiration? Describe how inspiration impacts one’s study of the New Testament and how teachers

Back 25

The word inspiration comes from the Latin and English translations of the Greek Word “Theopneustos” in II Timothy 3:16. It is “out-breathed” rather than “in-breathed”, although it could be literally defined as “to breathe upon or into something.” It does not mean we are "inspired" by what the writing says, but in fact means it was produced from God. "Breathed-out" by God. 2 Peter 1:19-20 explains that the New Testament was produced by God. This idea of inspiration gives a larger impact on the way we study the NT. It is not just some writing by humans (who make mistakes) that is a suggestion for how to live. It is produced, breathed out, by God. It is important tot make that distinction. People tend to think the NT is man written and therefore can have mistakes. So how then can it be 100% accurate? If they understand that the NT was produced by God and not of man's will it is easier to understand the importance and accuracy of the NT.

Front 26

2.) Describe the major struggles of the people of God from the period of the Diadochi through the Roman’s moving in to settle a dispute among the Jews around 60 BC. How does this shape the setting of the New Testament?

Back 26

After the death of Alexander the Great his empire was divided among his six generals. These generals tried to take over the entire area, and there were two who were successful. The two were the Ptolemies and the Seleucids. The Ptolemies were the first to rule over the Jews. They were decent to the Jews and did not charge them with a high tax. Soon the Ptolemies went to war with the Seleucids. The Seleucids enlisted the help of Rome in their fight and eventually won and became the new rulers over the Jews. But because of Rome's help they had to pay Rome many. In order to obtain the money the Seleucids taxed very heavily. Also, Antiochus Epiphanies IV raided the temple to help pay off the debt that they owed Rome. The Jews revolted against the Seleucids and eventually the Romans came in with force to subdue the Jews. Now the Jews were paying a high tax and were being forced to behave by way of Roman soldiers. The Jews could no longer make any political decisions and were becoming restless under the Roman rule. They were waiting for a Messiah to come and free them from their Roman oppressors.
