Language of the Heart: Reading Biblical Poetry
Nearly one-third of the Bible is made up of poetry - including the songs, laments, and inspired wisdom of God’s people. Poetic language is one of the main ways God has chosen to speak in his revealed Word. Throughout history, many have found the Psalms and other poetic passages of Scripture to be among the most treasured for the Christian life. However, poetry can also feel confusing or difficult to understand.
This 6-week Biblical Interpretation course will provide strategies for reading and understanding this important genre of Scripture. Working in various Old Testament texts, participants will learn the characteristics of Hebrew poetry and how they convey meaning. We’ll consider together how the poetry of Scripture can speak to our hearts and provide us with unique language for worship, discipleship, and mission.
