When I was engaged in pastoral ministry and adult religious education in Ireland before coming to Mount St. Mary’s Seminary in Emmitsburg, Maryland, USA, I offered Bible study courses to adults in two venues in Cloyne Diocese each Fall and Spring covering one third of the Bible. First Course: Enjoying the Bible: course outline and samples Second Course: Enjoying Paul's Letters and the Old Testament: course outline and samples
I need to update these courses and when I have them updated I hope to put them
online for your benefit. In the meantime you may find some of the following
books useful for your Bible Study:
Reading the Old Testament: An Introduction God's Word to Israel by Joseph Jensen
Reading the New Testament: An Introduction The Collegeville Atlas of the Bible The above books should prove useful for anyone wanting more than a passing knowledge of the Bible. For those who want a brief introduction the following may be helpful:
