Instructor: Thomas Nass

Description:
The Hebrew Institute is an upper-level course in biblical Hebrew for pastors with a strong interest and ability in Hebrew.

Each year the Institute reads different texts with the hope that some students may enjoy returning year after year.

The Institute is offered every summer at Martin Luther College and every other (even) year at WLS.

The 2024 course will focus on the rapid reading of Deuteronomy 12-26 in Hebrew. These theologically rich chapters present the heart of the old covenant in a collection sometimes called “the Deuteronomic Code.” About fifty verses are quoted or alluded to in the New Testament, including Moses’ messianic prophecy about the “prophet” to come.

For an extra project, each participant will spend some time with an upper-level Hebrew research tool or teaching tool with which he was previously unacquainted.

In summer 2024 this course will run June 24-28 from 8:00-9:45 am and 1:30-3:15 pm.
