Conversations with Dr. Fred
Danker
Five Thursdays
April 3, 10, 17, 24 and May 1
9:00am
Dr. Fred Danker is a retired seminary teacher and one of the
world's preeminent New Testament scholars who singlehandedly revised the
standard lexicon of the Greek New Testament. In the class Dr. Danker
applies his mastery of Greek literature to the big questions about faith
such as, "Who is God?", " How does God operate?", "How did the
Mediterranean world of the New Testament understand God?", and "How do
we translate that into today's world?". A required text for the course
which may be purchased at the class for $40.00 is "Benefactor: Epgraphic
Study of a Graeco-Roman and New Testament Semantic Field." This book is
a readable and comprehensible study of the Greek origin of some of the
key words in Christian theology. Sessions dismiss at 11:30am. Tuition is
$68.00.
