The old expression: “That is all Greek to me,” has convinced a lot of people that Greek must be a very difficult language to speak. Greek grammar, however, has a very logical and exact structure, allowing the reader to analyse the text with amazing precision. It is exactly this which makes the study of Greek so exciting and worthwhile.
In this first level unit students are taught the fundamental grammatical structure of Koine Greek and its vocabulary. Along with this students are also introduced to Greek language tools that are available to help them analyse the text more quickly. This is important as time constraints often force ministers to by-pass analysis of the Greek text in their sermon preparation, resulting in poorer exegesis.
Greek is very important for an in-depth analysis and understanding of the New Testament. It, thus, is foundational for students wishing to continue their studies of the New Testament on a post-graduate level.
