WHY? HOW?) A BIBLE SURVEY is an attempt to overview, in one sweep, the content of the entire BIBLE . It aims to introduce the student to all of Scripture. That is, it aims to give to the student the historical background to, the structure (outline) of, and any other interpretative keys (main themes, key concepts, literary features, etc) within, each division and each book of the BIBLE , so that he/she can henceforth more profitably read and study the BIBLE for him/herself, whether for personal devotions or public ministry. A BIBLE SURVEY is thus not a BIBLE Study or a series of BIBLE Studies: when we are seeking to cover the entire BIBLE there is obviously not enough time for the detailed study (whether devotional or doctrinal) of biblical passages, themes, etc.
Bible Survey: Chapter 1 THE INTER-TESTAMENT PERIOD & INTRODUCTION TO THE NEW TESTAMENT 1. INTER-TESTAMENT HISTORY The history of the Jews between 400 and 4 BC is little known. It is often dismissed as simply the time "Between the Testaments", "the 400 Silent Years" when God did not speak.
