Study Report 12 - due by 9am of the Monday following the Module
Download the .doc file for Study Report 12
Fill in and save each daily section as you study during the week.
NOTE on "Key Verses" - There are no "correct" or "incorrect" Key Verses.
The Key Verses are any verses from the daily Bible readings which particularly speak to you on that day. The Study Report will ask you not only to type the verses into your Report, but also to write them out by hand (not into the Report) while speaking them aloud. This will be a way for you to internalize some of the texts which you are studying, and have them in your memory for whenever there is a future need.
Submit the completed file to the relevant Assignment Box in Canvas by 9am the following Monday.

Thread
Try to imagine how you would have handled being taken as a captive to Babylon after the Fall of Jerusalem. Families were allowed to stay together (if they had survived the siege) and some women and children were allowed to ride on ox-carts, but everyone else had to walk and carry their belongings. The Jews did not speak or read the language of the Babylonians. Jerusalem and the Temple had been burned to the ground. The leaders were dead or captives. What would your thoughts and plans have been as you walked to Babylon?
