Why study all 66 books of the Bible?
DTS values all sixty-six books of the Bible as the inspired, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God, and its accurate interpretation and appropriate application.
Rationale
Seminary is a spiritual journey rooted in the Word of God.
The Turpin Library at DTS provides access to many hundreds of thousands of items, including a wide array of commentaries and Bible resources.
DTS affirms that the seminary experience is foundationally a process of spiritual transformation, and at the center of that journey is the Triune God and his Word. In the ninety-five years since our founding, we have made teaching the Bible our highest priority. We believe that the Spirit of God works through the Word of God, which is why students in every single one of our professional ministry master’s degrees take eight classes that cover all 66 books of the Bible.
In addition, two-and-a-half years of Greek and two years of Hebrew enable ThM students to develop exegetical skills basic to their own inductive examination of the written Word.
