Course Introduction 3 lectures 08:28 Course Overview and Introduction preview A Comparative History Curriculum to Accompany the novel, The Brotherhood of the Scroll, this course is designed to introduce you to the history, geography, and biblical references of the exile of Judah to Babylon, and how we can learn and apply this knowledge to present day events. Clash of the Superpowers uses the parallels in the geopolitics of 600 B.C. to events happening in today’s world to engage the student in a conversation about geography, history, politics and religion. If we expect young people to be engaged in the process of self-government, we must awaken their innate curiosity to see how all these seemingly dry subjects relate to their daily lives. This course will allow you to help students explore the history of 600 B.C. when Babylon and Egypt vied for world domination, and apply the lessons learned to the modern clash of the superpowers.Please review the video and download the introduction to the course, as well as a review provided by The Old School House, a Home School Curriculum Magazine. Syllabus and Course Lesson Descriptions In creating this course, it is assumed that a group of students will take the course under the direction of an adult teacher. Attached please find a suggested syllabus. You are able to modify it as you wish. For example, you may decide that you only wish to assign the suggested essay assignments. Or, if working with a younger age group, you may wish to only use the assessments we've created - terminology matching, vocabulary, timeline of events.I have provided the course and lesson descriptions, as well as the syllabus.The syllabus has suggested teaching strategies for each lesson, as well as point values for assignments. You may wish to modify this course for use as a section of another course (.i.e., survey of the Old Testament, or use in a history course covering World War II or the Cold War.). Additionally, you may wish to use this as an Adult Sunday School course, dispensing with taking the quizzes and doing the assignments. The Brotherhood of the Scroll preview In 1997, I came up with the idea for a “Tom Clancy” like novel set in bible times. I envisioned a group committed to preserving the Word of God as Babylon threatened to destroy Jerusalem. And so, following the time line of the Book of Jeremiah in the Old Testament, I conceived of a plot line in which Jeremiah, along with his two trusted disciples, Daniel and Ezekiel, worked to preserve God’s word in a world at war. Since finishing the The Brotherhood of the Scroll in 1999, I have now created a home school curriculum titled Clash of the Superpowers and a sequel, The Sword of the Scroll . Through these pages, I invite you to take a few moments to learn about it and see if you might find it of use in working with young people to learn the truth of the bible.
