An Investigative Bible Study Method
Using Questions to Examine Scripture
from 3 Views

3-V is a serious learning tool that forces students to think, by challenging them to investigate.

Throughout a variety of texts and topics, 3-V poses a series of three probing questions in order to enhance a student's comprehension, interpretation, and application of a scripture.

These 3-Views are -

View 1 - What's the Text? (Comprehension)

What does the scripture specifically say? How do different Bible translation versions word the same passage?

View 2 - What's the Context? (Interpretation)

What is the story behind the story? What was the cultural and social background of the people who were addressed? Do we find terms in the scripture that were commonplace to people of the day...but unfamiliar to us?

What were the events that took place prior to the passage?

Exploring all of the background information that envelops a Bible verse can improve our understanding.

View 3 - What's Next? (Application)

How do we apply our new scriptural understanding to our contemporary daily lives? How will we change in response?
