Grade 11 CRE The Old Testament Notes

Revise The Old Testament with a focused study outline for CRE. Use the explanation, activity and self-check below to organise your revision and identify areas that need further practice.

Topic overview

Old Testament study requires attention to a passage’s context, characters and central message. Distinguish a narrative event from an interpretation or an application drawn from it. Support explanations with relevant textual evidence.

Try this revision activity

Read a selected passage and organise your response into context, key event, teaching and reasoned application.

Begin with a short plan before writing a full response. Identify what the question asks you to explain, calculate, compare or evaluate. Use a diagram, a worked calculation or a specific example where it makes the reasoning clearer.

Check your understanding

Use the passage to support the answer instead of giving a general moral statement unrelated to the text.

Compare your response with your class notes and the guidance from your teacher. If you find a difference, identify the exact point of disagreement and work through it. Make a short correction note so you can revisit the issue later.

Build your revision record

1. Record the important terms and explain each in context.
2. Summarise the main relationships using a diagram or a short outline.
