*****FALL 2020*****

NOTE: Due to the nature of our hybrid/remote learning dynamics, I’ve moved all assignment announcements to the “Weekly” module folders under “Course Content” in Blackboard (Bb). There, I provide links to course materials that I house here, but I won’t be updating *this* page like I normally would have in the past. Look for what’s due each week inside those Bb weekly folders.

Due Monday, Aug 24: In preparation for our first class meeting, do the following BEFORE class on Monday:

[1] Print and/or download the syllabus and bring to class so that we can discuss and take down notes on it.

[2] Read and study Greek textbook chapters 1-3.

Promoting the study of Biblical Hebrew, Biblical Aramaic, and Hellenistic Greek
