Master of Theology (New Testament)
Program Description
The Master of Theology (ThM) with a concentration in New Testament is intended for students who have
completed an MDiv or an MA in New Testament. This degree provides students with opportunities to
focus on such topics as advanced Greek grammar and linguistics, the historical Jesus, and issues in
Pauline studies. If a student desires to specialize in the New Testament for teaching, ministry enrichment,
or doctoral studies, the ThM provides a foundation in the critical study of the New Testament.
