| Description |
The Septuagint functioned as the Scriptures of the early Christian church and were considered to have at least equal authority to the Hebrew Scriptures. The primary focus of this course is the analysis of Paul's citations of Septuagintal texts and how Paul employs the Septuagint in his own scriptural reasoning. This course will also discuss the linguistic relationship between the Septuagint and its source (Hebrew) text, and apply the 'interlinear paradigm' for translating it. |
| Pre-Requisites | Proficiency in reading Hellenistic Greek and competency in biblical Hebrew is required. |
