TEXTBOOKS

The main textbook is:

• Ray Summers and Thomas Sawyer, Essentials of New Testament Greek (Broadman & Holman, 1995).

In addition, you will need to purchase two primary tools for working with the Greek New Testament:

• Novum Testamentum Graece, 27th edition (Nestle-Aland).
• A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, 3rd edition, edited by Bauer & Danker.

These books are available at the Augsburg Bookstore on the LTSS campus (803) 691-1118.

TENTATIVE DAILY SCHEDULE

8:30 Morning Prayer in Christ Chapel
9:00-10:30 Class (some of this time will be spent in small groups)
10:30-10:45 Break
10:45-12:00 Class
1:30-3:00 Work in small groups

The instructor will have two student Teaching Assistants during the summer. The three of us will "rotate" through the small groups, where a good deal of practice and translation will be done together. Studying Greek works best as a team effort. Sharing our efforts and "tricks" will make learning easier for everyone.
