Thomas K. Dailey
SPRING 2024 | 3 CREDIT HOURS | RESIDENT ONLY
A continuation of Greek Exegetical Method 1, this course takes students through the exegetical process working from the initial steps of confirming the limits of a passage and establishing the text to the final steps of providing a polished translation and producing an exegetical paper. Following Craig Blomberg's A Handbook of New Testament Exegesis, students will apply the steps of exegesis to a selected portion of Colossians. The course assumes a working knowledge of Greek syntax and textual criticism.
Upon successful completion of the course assignments along with active class participation, students will be able to: a) identify and utilize the distinct components of exegesis; b) implement the various exegetical components in a manner that allows students to create an informed approach to Greek Exegetical Method; c) develop proficiency in reading the Greek NT along with the textual apparatus; and d) demonstrate the manner in which Paul structures the overarching message of Colossians. 3 credit hours.
