Biblical Language Tools for Exegesis

Description: This course is designed to introduce Biblical Hebrew and Koiné Greek (NT) to students who have no background in biblical languages and to provide enough knowledge to use lexicons, Bible software and other tools. The course includes a basic introduction to each language, emphasizing understanding the basic elements of a sentence to be able to analyze how a sentence creates meaning. The use of language resources and tools will be covered so that a student will be able to use these tools in doing exegesis in both languages. Six weeks of classes will be spent on each language, culminating in an open book final assignment for each language. Learning to use Biblical Language Tools is done through applied knowledge. Each week students will gain hands-on experience in groups and on their own.
