3 courses with the subject BT, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
BT 1011Developments in Biblical Studies and Hermeneutics I Consideration of the original socio-cultural and
historical contexts of biblical texts and the issues they raise for the interpretation and translation of those texts. Consideration of developments in hermeneutics, ethics, and methods of the interpretation of Scripture and their implications for Bible translation. BT1012: Developments in Biblical Studies and Hermeneutics II Consideration of the global contexts of the Church and the implications for the interpretation and translation of the biblical texts. BT1020: Project I The biblical-theological foundations for Bible translation in general or a particular aspect of Bible translation that may become the focus of your final thesis-project.

We will arrive in Misano, Italy, by end of day on the Monday of the week before the Nida School of Bible Translation and will meet Tuesday-Friday of that week to discuss the readings and prepare for the Nida School.
BT 1024Developments in Bible Translation Theory and Practice On the second week we will attend the Nida
School of Bible Translation from Monday to Friday and then spend most of Saturday debriefing the experience in the Nida School before departing. BT1030: Project II A literature review on a topic (or topics) central to the anticipated focus of your final thesis project. While dedicated to the topic or topics of your primary concern or interest, the literature review should also include any of the assigned readings that would be relevant to the topic (if there are any).
