GREEK NEW TESTAMENT READING CLASS
Instructor: Andre Mendoza
Classes start JANUARY 12, 2025 and end on JUNE 15, 2025
This is a continuation of the class that began in September 2024 but new joiners are most welcome. We will continue to read the Gospel of John, picking up where we end the Fall semester - likely in Chapter 6. This is one of the most approachable texts in the NT and conveniently has a well-produced and free audiobook. We will read perhaps 20 lines a week prepared before class and hopefully include sight translation every class, though we may adjust depending on ability. Homework will be to prepare the next class’s reading and to listen to the audiobooks. We will use class to practice reading out loud, translating and discussing points of vocab and grammar. Our text will be ‘A Reader’s Greek New Testament’, 3rd edition, ed Richard Goodrich and Albert Lukaszewski.
Classes will be held remotely.
Classes will be held each Sunday ON ZOOM from 2:00 p.m. – 3:00 p.m.
