WORLD OF OLD TESTAMENT * Society not mobile/global * Men followed into family trade * Elite classes had tutors * Greeks/Romans higher education, special training * Jews had post-exilic synagogue training
WORLD OF NEW TESTAMENT * Romans taught reading/writing, poetry, public speaking and philosophy * No formal state schools * Home education - family trade, morals, religion * Higher training for elite
- assumes home to teach morals and religion - does NOT address higher education - Paul trained as Pharisee and Roman
GENERAL PRINCIPLES * Priorities for your children: - Should be higher than worlds standards - Take into account creation mandate - Not all parents can provide special education * Public school risks - secular, worldly influences * Private school risks - "class thinking", negligence * Home School risks - informational and/or associational inconsistencies
