This course builds on theskills learned in the required exegesis course, which is a prerequisite for thisadvanced course. Exegesis will be based on the Greek text with Englishtranslations. This course will focus on the art of interpreting Scripture, both as ithas been done historically, as well as how it might be done in the Church today.The course seeks to integrate three contemporary areas or approaches toexegesis: 1) to gain an appreciation for the weekly cycle of Gospel and Epistlereadings within the lectionary of the Greek Orthodox Church; 2) to be introducedto theories and methods of biblical interpretation, both contemporary academicand patristic; and 3) to provide a structured environment in which the studentwill be encouraged to practice each week these foundational skills used inbiblical exegesis, practicing this art within the larger context of equipping thestudents to use these skills for teaching, preaching, and personal spiritualformation.
