Paper details
Synthesize includes these four sections
(1) Interpretive conventions (i.e., hermeneutical methods or reading strategies) which are unique to the corpus/genre.
(2) historical/cultural context (i.e., the setting which may include political history, ancient Near Eastern literature and archaeology);
(3) Theological themes/messages of each book/corpus, the theological themes/messages must be developed and demonstrated in your own words); and
(4) Application of [a] theological theme[s] to Christian life/ministry (i.e., spiritual formation). The paper should be 10-15 pp. in length, and it must also include a bibliography (of the works cited in the paper).
Assessment: Depth, critical thinking, insight, and application, depth goes beyond simply repeating facts. It consists of the insight and implications that comes from connecting these theological themes with other parts of Scripture and life.
• Logic: there should be a clarity and logical flow throughout each of the four sections of the paper you’ve been asked to write on.
• Form: mechanics (grammar, syntax, and spelling) and citation (see Turabian’s Manual or the SBL Handbook of Style)
• Resources: extent and quality of research shown, including choice of resources and bibliography. This also includes understanding your resources accurately. You should have approximately 5 resources.
• Organization: simply following the instructions to write on the four parts described in the instructions for the paper will yield full credit for the organization
