1 1 2 THESSALONIANS (NTGK ) Advanced Greek Exegesis Spring 2009 Dr. Gerald L. Stevens I. MISSION STATEMENT The mission of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary is to equip leaders to fulfill the Great Commission and the Great Commandment through the local church and its ministries. II. COURSE DESCRIPTION: This course is advanced study giving consideration to text-critical, grammatical, syntactical, literary, and historical issues through text analysis in the letter of Romans. The course will emphasize sound hermeneutical principles for discovering the meaning of the text and for applying the text in teaching and preaching. Prerequisites are: Introduction to Biblical Hermeneutics, Exploring the New Testament, Introduction to Greek Grammar, and Intermediate Greek Grammar. III. COURSE OUTCOMES: Knowledge Students who complete this course successfully should: Know a biographical outline of Paul s life and letters, with special focus on the historical background of the letters to the Thessalonians Know the major issues in the critical study of Paul s life and letters as these impact an interpretation of 1 2 Thessalonians Know the structural outlines of 1 2 Thessalonians as presented in class and given in a class handout Attitudes Students who complete this course successfully should: Appreciate the richness of 1 2 Thessalonians for Christian doctrine over the centuries Recognize the importance of original language for sound exegesis Be more confident in interpreting 1 2 Thessalonians Skills Students who complete this course successfully should be able to: Translate the Greek text of 1 2 Thessalonians with sufficient proficiency as to understand the grammatical and syntactical issues raised in commentary discussion Provide critical commentary of any section of 1 2 Thessalonians demonstrating interaction with the text, class lecture, and of commentary reading IV. TEXTS: Martin, D. Michael. 1, 2 Thessalonians in The New American Commentary, Vol. 33. Nashville: Broadman & Holman Publishers, Bruce, F. F. 1 & 2 Thessalonians in Word Biblical Commentary, Vol. 45. Waco, TX: Word Books, Publisher, Donfried, Karl P. and Johannes Beutler, eds. The Thessalonians Debate: Methodological Discord or Methodological Synthesis? Grand Rapids: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2000.
2 [1 2 Thessalonians, Advanced Greek, Spring 2009, Stevens] 2 Other Resources: Ernest Best, A Commentary on the First and Second Epistles to the Thessalonians in Black's New Testament Commentary (England) and Harper's New Testament Commentaries (United States), This is a highly regarded but older volume. Charles A. Wanamaker, The Epistles to the Thessalonians: A Commentary on the Greek Text, in the International Greek Text Commentary, eds. I. Howard Marshall and W. Ward Gasque (Grand Rapids: William. B. Eerdmans, Publishing Co., 1990). This newer commentary distinguishes itself by reviving the old sequence hypothesis that 2 Thessalonians is written first. Robert Jewett, The Thessalonian Correspondence: Pauline Rhetoric and Millenarian Piety in Foundations and Facets, ed. Robert W. Funk (Philadelphia: Fortress Press, 1986). This volume is a rich resource for rhetorical analysis. Jewett s thesis is that a millenarian radicalism in Thessalonica misunderstood the first letter, requiring a second letter to defuse the situation. Jewett s book provides a good bibliography divided into exegetical and historical studies, rhetorical and linguistic studies, and social-scientific studies. Jewett also lays out the structure of the epistles in charts according to proposed outlines of 1, 2 Thessalonians. E. Randolph Richards, Paul and First-Century Letter Writing: Secretaries, Composition and Collection (Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 2004). Richards has investigated carefully the first-century setting of ancient letter writing and challenges many presuppositions and false assumptions one brings to the historical question of Paul as a letter writer. InterVarsity Press s Dictionary of Paul and His Letters (IVP-DPL). One always should consult these articles as a great quick start to any investigation into Paul. V. GRADES: Daily Quiz is possible at the beginning of any class hour on the translation and reading assignment. Three lowest are dropped, minus tardies and absences. Taking a quiz then cutting class counts as a zero for that quiz. NO MAKE-UPS. Translation from the Greek New Testament is required on the assigned passage for each class session. Students will be asked to translate in class and answer questions about grammar and syntax. Book Review. A book review will be submitted on Donfried and Beutler s book, The Thessalonians Debate. The review should be one to two pages, single-spaced, 12 point Times, one-inch margins. The header information should look like the example at the end of this syllabus, but with correct margins. Class Discussion will be important. The class will be handled more like a seminar, rather than lectures. Students will present class reports as assigned. Report topics will be given as assigned and indicated in the syllabus. The format of the class report is flexible (panel discussion, interview, individual part summaries, skit, etc.). Each report should include a written summary for all class members in single-spaced Times font, 12 point size, with one inch boarders. Pertinent bibliography should be included. Introductory Topics: 1. Authorship 1.1 Dependent literary relationship 1.2 Eschatological teaching 1.3 Impersonal tone

Compile a background study about the historical and cultural context for any topic the student will decide related to the term paper passage the student chooses from 1 2 Thessalonians (see below on the term paper). The study should include primary and secondary sources and the student s own evaluation of the subject in light of the sources. The study should be two to three pages, single-spaced, 12 point Times, one-inch margins. The header information should look like the example at the end of this syllabus, but with correct margins. Word Study. Compile a word study using the tools discussed in the Hermeneutics course for any word the student will decide related to the term paper passage the student chooses from 1 2 Thessalonians (see below on the term paper). The study should be three to four pages, single-spaced, 12 point Times, one-inch margins, using the format presented in the Hermeneutics class. The header information should look like the example at the end of this syllabus, but with correct margins. Term Paper. The paper will be based upon a passage in 1 2 Thessalonians chosen by the student and approved by the professor. The paper should be Turabian style, twenty to twenty-two double-spaced pages, plus preliminaries (title, blank, contents) and a bibliography of a minimum of twenty modern, critical resources. A penalty of 5 points/day will be assessed for late papers.

General Historical Background Topic: Your Topic Here Text: Your Text Here This would be a discussion of the general background of that topic. If the student were doing a background on the topic of a province, such as Asia Minor, for example, one would overview the history of the rise of Roman power in Asia Minor, and of the cities in particular. 2. Immediate Background This would be the more specific background of the book of Revelation, its author, date, and composition. For example, one would cover the two main suggestions for the background of the book, either Nero s reign or that of Domitian. One could explore the issue of whether Patmos ever was used as a penal colony. One could ask, exactly how should John s visionary experiences be understood? Example Format Word Study Your Name 1 2 Thessalonians (Greek) Word Study Spring 2009 Date Dr. Gerald L. Stevens 1. Diachronic Analysis (Etymology and History) Word: Your Word Here Text: Your Text Here This would be a discussion of the use of the word through time.

The report outline would follow the form suggested in Hermeneutics class.
