I did not draw attention in class to the particular part on page 107 "Historical-Cultural Context of the Entire Book." Therefore, please read this section of the page. We will use class time on Friday to practice using some of the tools for learning about historical-cultural contexts.
Have you learned these things? I think you have! Use this as a guide to be sure you have gained these points of knowledge thus far. Friday's test will be a take home test, but you may not use your book or notes in order to complete it. Please do not wait to study for the test, as your homework this week is light in order to provide valuable study time.

Chapter 4: What is meant by the term "discourse" in the text?
