Building on the competencies learned in DI2201, students will gain familiarity with advanced grammatical concepts and syntactical relationships as they are encountered inductively through the reading of primary texts. In addition, students will learn to use and evaluate a standard reference work regarding intermediate Koine Greek grammar as they learn to analyze the primary texts by using the syntactical categories of contemporary scholarship. Finally, in order to facilitate future reading, students will increase their vocabulary by mastering every word that occurs 25 times or more in the Greek New Testament.
