COURSE DESCRIPTION AND RATIONALE
A study of the linguistic and grammatical fundamentals of New Testament Greek directed toward developing translation skills.
Understanding of the New Testament, the standard of Christian faith and practice, requires knowledge of its original language. Study of Koine Greek is therefore essential for those whose vocations will involve preaching, teaching or other ministry of the Word.
OBJECTIVES
The student who satisfactorily completes this course should be able to:


  1. Recite the first forms and basic meanings of vocabulary words.

  1. Identify inflected forms and deduce their first forms.

  1. List and identify the uses of cases.

  1. Write from memory the conjugation of the model verb.

  1. Identify and explain the significance of grammatical constructions.

  1. Translate sentences from exercises and selected sentences from the Greek NT or related literature.

  1. Compose Greek sentences as required.


MAJOR LEARNING EXPERIENCES, COURSE PROCEDURES AND ASSIGNMENTS


  1. Class sessions will be given to lectures and discussion of Greek grammar, led by the instructor and following the material in the textbook consecutively. There will also be take-home quizzes that will be distributed during each class session.

  2. Out of class, students will:

    1. Prepare exercises from the textbook, workbook, and/or supplementary exercises provided by the instructor, including translation and composition of Greek sentences. These will be reviewed and discussed in class.

    2. Review vocabulary and paradigms of inflection daily, committing these firmly to memory.

    3. Complete weekly take-home quizzes.

  3. Students will be asked to report the amount of time they have studied. The amount of study time will be reported on the top of the page of the student’s weekly submission of exercises. Since regular, careful, systematic study is the most important factor in the successful completion of the course, students are strongly encouraged to devote at least six hours each week to preparing exercises and reviewing vocabulary and grammar, though some may require more or less. Students who find this demand to be too great are encouraged to consider the relative value of other activities to which they might devote this time.

  4. A comprehensive final exam will be given at the end of the semester.

  5. Before the final exam, students will be required to produce outside of class from memory a chart of the conjugation of the model verb in the indicative mood.


GRADING AND ATTENDANCE POLICIES
Grades will be figured according to the following formula:
Assignments, Study Time, and Quizzes 50%

Conjugation of model verb 10%



Final exam 40%
This formula may be altered at the instructor's discretion to account for individual circumstances.
Regular attendance at class sessions and timely completion of assignments and quizzes are vital to student success in this course. (A separate handout will be distributed in class regarding homework and quiz policies.) The nature of this course is cumulative. Each week, students will learn concepts that build upon content introduced in previous class discussions. Thus, when students miss class, they place themselves at a disadvantage. They must catch up with missed material as well as learn new material at the same time. “Excused absences,” therefore, do not really exist! A student may be able to recover from missing one class session depending upon the student’s abilities. In keeping with seminary attendance policies, a student may be dropped from a course after multiple absences.
Students who do not complete assignments on the dates required will be penalized, though late assignments must still be completed and submitted to the instructor.
