Reading Scripture Like a Detective

You must have a Biblearc EQUIP subscription to enroll in this course.

Biblearc EQUIP

Each week, students will read through one lesson, complete an assignment, and meet together in a virtual classroom via Zoom. Students who enroll should expect to attend the class and complete each lesson and assignment on time.

During the live class time, a teacher will teach new content based on that week’s lesson, facilitate group discussions, and lead students through exercises and passages that apply the skills and knowledge taught by the lesson. Students will also be able to sign up for one-on-one coaching times with their coach.

Weekly Requirements: The course requires students to complete three tasks each week:

Read the lesson content (about 1.5 hours)

Complete the assignment (about 1.5-2.5 hours)

Participate in a live class (about 1 hour)

Assignments: Weekly assignments force students to apply the material they learn.

Assessment: During the final week of the course, students will prepare to take a one-hour assessment. Successfully passing the assessment requires a high degree of understanding and is meant to serve as a motivation to take your study seriously and learn the language well.

Certificate: Students who successfully complete the course and pass the assessment will earn Biblearc’s Greek I Certificate (see sample). If you do not pass an assessment, you may retry after one week’s time.

This live class meets on Mondays at 7pm ET from February 3rd – April 7th.

This course series equips students with the ability to read and understand the NT in Koine Greek, its original language. Students are not required to have any prior knowledge of Greek for Greek I. This course covers nouns, adjectives, and adverbs in particular, with an emphasis on reading the text, understanding the fundamentals, and learning the vocabulary—so as to empower students to better know and teach the NT. Above all, this course series seeks to magnify Jesus through reading the NT in its original language.

[[ This series includes Greek I, II, III, and IV—equivalent to more than one year of seminary-level Greek. ]]
