GB 6133 - Tools for Biblical Greek (3)

An introduction to the tools for using Koine Greek to understand the Bible, particularly the New Testament. Students will learn how to use software for Bible study, how to find meaning of the Greek words that lie behind English translations, grammatical terms that apply to exegesis, and how to understand scholarly commentaries based on the Greek text. This class differs from a traditional introduction to Greek course by requiring much less rote memorization. Students will not be required to memorize vocabulary or paradigm forms, but rather be expected to use tools to look up the necessary information.
