Readings in Koine Greek (LG-663)

This course will provide students the opportunity to read passages in their original language from the Cappadocians (Gregory of Nazianzus). Gregory's writings (along with those of his friend Basil of Caesarea, and his brother Gregory of Nyssa), deservedly enjoy a significant place in the history of theology. They also continue to appeal to people from a variety of backgrounds and faiths -- for their beautiful spirituality. Classes, which will be synchronous online, will use a Greek textbook that provides ample "helps" and references to Lampe's Patristic Greek Lexicon. Prerequisite: LG-561/562, or permission of instructor.
