| Course Description |
This course will introduce the basic features of New Testament Greek, the tools of New Testament studies, and the exegetical method. Emphasis in instruction will be placed on the use of biblical examples to illustrate grammatical and morphological characteristics of the Greek language. Special attention will be given to the usefulness of Greek in various ministerial contexts, including the preparation of sermons and Bible studies.
The course can be assessed on a pass/fail basis.
This course can be followed in the Winter semester with THEO 598 The Greek New Testament, which will continue the study of the grammar of the New Testament and practice reading biblical texts. Students who wish to further their facility in Greek can then take THEO 697 Intermediate New Testament Greek, a half-course extending over the fall and winter terms.
