THEO 3301 Dr. C. Sommer
Fall 2019
Research Paper
Due: 9 October, 2019
The Catholic Church has a three year cycle of readings from Scripture which is used for Mass on Sunday. Each student will choose one Sunday’s set of readings, research those passages, and then provide a conclusion as to why the readings were chosen to be presented together.
Length: At least 9 pages of double-spaced text. (Does not include Title Page / Works Cited Page)
Procedure:
1) Choose one Sunday of Ordinary time from the link provided in Blackboard and read the First and Second Readings, the Psalm, and the Gospel Reading.
Section B (10:10): You will choose from Year B
2) Write an introduction which includes the Sunday chosen, the three readings (1st, 2nd, and Gospel) along with their citations. Include your thesis statement which is reason these reading are grouped together.
3) Part I of the paper: Exegesis of passages
For each of the 3 readings (1st, 2nd, and Gospel), you need to
- a) identify the reading
- b) summarize what is in the passage
- c) give the context of the passage (what is around it in the book)
- d) give the overall meaning of the passage in context
For the Psalm, you need to
- a) identify the Psalm
- b) summarize the verses used for the Sunday
- c) give the overall meaning and structure of the poem
NB: You may need to use the link on BB to help reconcile verse numbers in the lectionary with whatever Bible you are using.
4) Part II of the paper
You should give and analyze the connections that are found within the readings and the Psalm. What are their themes and how do the themes relate? Is there a progression from one reading to another? What else makes these fit together. This is where you prove your thesis.
