Course Description:

This course provides an intensive introduction to the basic elements of New Testament Greek (also known as Biblical Greek or Koine Greek). Students will master essential aspects of Greek morphology and syntax and acquire a substantial reading vocabulary. The courses employ both deductive and inductive methods, with increasing emphasis on the latter as students progress. By the end of the course, students will be able to translate passages from the Greek New Testament with the aid of a lexicon and grammar text. Students will be expected to use audio recordings and practice listening to and reading Greek aloud, as well as writing Greek both by hand and using a word processor with Greek fonts.
