Old Testament Discussion Board Instructions:
NOTE: In your discussion board posts, it is expected that you use sources. The posts should not
be merely your own opinion, but rather your thoughts as developed through the material you
have studied that week. Here are some guidelines about using sources:
1) In order to get full points, you must make reference to at least two separate sources in
each post.
2) Your initial post should make reference to at least one of the textbooks.
3) Listing sources at the end of a post does not count as using them. You must include a
specific page that you are referring to in your post.
4) You are expected to use the Bible when relevant to the question, but it is not considered a
source.
5) A source is an assigned textbook, one of the readings or videos identified in Blackboard,
or another source that you find through your own research
