Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Assessment and permitted materials
There will be an online test every week to check if the students read the given texts. The questions will either check the students text knowledge or they have to reflect on these texts. As aid you may use the bible, but the test's time will be so limited that you cannot answer everything whithout having read anything before.
This course is a pi (test immanently) one, i.e. you have to be present at the two meetings and you have to do all the online tests. If you miss more than two tests you will fail the course automatically.

In this seminary the five books of the Torah Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy will be read. In addition some recapitulating contents of the "Grundkurs I" will be provided.method:
- The students will be advanced to chosen biblical texts, so that they have the chance to get in contact to the text.
- The form of this is lectio continua, i.e. reading the full text of all books.
- The chosen books follow the string of the Septuagint canon.
- Weekly tests guarantee the students' continuous reading, so that the extent will not get to high.
