Course Description
Building on what the students have done in the first semester, this course is a reading course: we will read various biblical texts in Greek together, where the student will be required to read the Greek original, translate, and analyze them. Points of grammar on syntax will be explained. Students are free to tranlate the Greek to either English or Italian and notes will be provided in both languages.
