Description
â€œAll translations are interpretation!â€ That was the motto of my Greek teacher, which encouraged me to study New Testament Koine Greek with a sincere commitment.
Unfortunately, when we read the Gospel in English (or any other translation) we receive a theological understanding presented by the translators. Only by learning the original language (in addition to ancient customs) can we fully appreciate the subtle nuances and depth of meaning of the wonderful Gospel of Christ.
The beginner course makes memorizing the Greek alphabet easy so you can penetrate a deeper understanding of Greek words rather than trying to capture the ancient meaning with a modern English definition. You will also learn how to speak the Greek words aloud, which is part of learning to think in a different language.
You may be comfortable and experienced with conducting word studies. However, this course will help you penetrate the meaning of a Greek word not an English term or expression. Furthermore, we must remember that people at the time of Jesus did not have books as we do. Theirs was an oral society and they would have â€œheardâ€ anything unusual, which would have led them to a deeper understanding. We must learn to think like the people at the time of Jesus.
Who this course is for:
Students of the Bible with a desire to discover the deeper meaning in the New Testament
