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

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.
