The class will read Greek texts from different parts of the New Testament and the Septuagint (LXX) to facilitate reading comprehension of Koine Greek. Pertinent intermediate level Greek grammar will be discussed as needed. Selection of the passages represents a pedagogy of exposure to diverse authors in the NT and the LXX with a reasonable amount of continuity within a session.
