Look at the passage you've been assigned and determine what makes it a literary unit, meaning what makes it a section of the text that fits together.

Identify "beginning markers" and "ending markers" in the passage, which are words or phrases that indicate the beginning of a new section or a conclusion/summary statement.

Consider the verses that come before and after your passage and why they were left out of the passage you're studying. What do you think your passage contributes to the book as a whole?

Use literary clues to explain why the selected verses function as a separate unit from the rest of the chapter or book of the Bible.

what can a list of at least 10 statements that indicate your passage functions as a separate literary unit, citing specific words, phrases, and terms that help mark it off from what comes before or after it.

If you believe your passage does not function as a separate unit, provide a list of statements to make that argument, explaining whether more verses before or after your passage should be included and why.

Keep track of your analysis by copying and pasting your responses into a separate document.

Special Note: Be sure to open your response with the Bible reference of your passage, so I can look up the passage myself as I read over your notes and statements.
