Study Notes
Outline Creation Process
- The outline development is an integrated process
- Always consider the text's flow and structure
- Initially, create an exegetical outline mirroring Paul's structure
- Gradually refine this into a timeless outline as the study progresses
- Outline-creation isn't a single step, but a continuous process throughout the study
- The process starts with syntactical analysis.
- Immediately after syntactical analysis, create a block diagram of the paragraph structure.
- Write down the exegetical theme (initial, not necessarily timeless).
- Create an exegetical outline capturing Paul's intended structure (not yet in preaching form).
- For each section, create initial preaching outline points from the exegetical outline.
- Further refine these points regularly (e.g., until Saturday night or even Sunday morning).
- Refinement is ongoing from the beginning, incorporated into the block diagram and analyses of each section/paragraph
