What You'll Learn

As we explore the people, places, and features that create the backdrop for the greatest story ever told, we must beware of unbiblical allegories and let Scripture be our guide.
Session 1
In the Old Covenant, Mount Sinai represented God’s presence with His people and His covenant faithfulness. In the New Covenant, Mount Sinai represents legalism and slavery to the Law.
Session 13
God used the Greek empire to set the cultural stage of the rapid expansion of the gospel.
