Types of Expository Outlines: Exegetical and Homiletical
Format of Drafted and Final Expository Outlines
Format of a Drafted Expository Outline
The process of drafting an expository outline is based on proper hermeneutics and exegesis. The rough draft differs in the purpose and order of information compared to that of a final draft. Below are sample outlines.
- Expositional Study: Phase 1
- Observation leading to exegetical outline that acknowledges the passages and/or book’s big/central idea based on the order in which scripture verses appear.
- Interpretation leading to drafting of homiletical outlineThesis (Refined and Concise Big/Central Idea Statement)
- Thesis (Refined and Concise Big/Central Idea Statement)
- Expositional Study: Phase 2
- Review of Phase 1 process and revision of homiletical outline
- Development of application
- Appropriate Illustrations
- Introduction and Conclusion
- Title 2
- Formation of Final Expository Outline
Format of a Final Expository Outline
Notice the subtle but important differences in the final expository outline. Final expository outlines are based on an homiletics approach to revising the rough draft and consists of the following:
- Introduction
- Greeting the congregation
- Reading of scriptural text
- Telling context of scriptural text
- Sharing thesis about scriptural text
- Expositional Preaching
- Observation
- Interpretation
- Application
- Conclusion

2 Timothy 4:1-5.
