Why would I take summer Greek or Hebrew at Princeton Theological Seminary?

  • Enhance your study of the Bible

I took Greek on campus and Hebrew online, and the recorded lectures were invaluable to me in both formats. I watched them over and over again when I was stuck on a concept which was often! It was so nice to have a recording of the work we were doing!
