BBL 1513 Biblical Language Tools I

Three hours (On Campus)

This course will train students to use the most valuable reference tools indexed in Koine Greek, without expecting that student will necessarily learn to read the language. These tools will include concordances and dictionaries indexed in Greek. Students will also learn enough grammar to follow the grammatical arguments made in technical commentaries based on the Greek text. They will also be exposed to enough text criticism to be able to explain the text critical footnotes that appear in many translations and to understand the text critical arguments in technical commentaries. They will not be expected to do textual criticism. Students who want to read the Greek New Testament should take BBL 2513 and BBL 2523.

Offered on campus upon sufficient request
