Greek Exegesis of Thessalonians is an investigation of Paul’s Letters to the Thessalonian church based on the Greek text. The course is designed to uncover the meaning of each letter by working through both its structure and argument. Extending beyond the discovery of its original meaning, the course will investigate their contribution to both biblical and systematic theology. (3 hours)
Students giving requisite attention to the course requirements will emerge from the course with the ability to: a) ▪ develop proficiency in reading the Greek NT (along with the textual apparatus); b) ▪ refresh and strengthen the steps involved in Greek Exegetical Method; c) develop ▪ explain the structure and argument of each letter; and d) produce an exegetically based thesis on a text from the Thessalonian letters.
