03-09. Under the Fig Tree: Geeking about Greek and Talking Translations with guest Dr. David Lewis

In this episode of Under the Fig Tree, hosts Rev. Micah Glenn and Dr. Ben Haupt sit down with Dr. David Lewis, associate professor of Exegetical Theology and director of the Master of Divinity and Residential Alternate Route Programs at Concordia Seminary. Lewis shares his love of the Greek language — which he teaches at the Seminary. He also discusses with Ben and Micah some tricky translations and gives insight into what it’s like to study languages at the Sem. And they have some fun with the segment “Ripe for the picking or leave it on the tree?” Do you enjoy watching college football? How about Star Wars? Let us know in the comments! And don’t miss Ben and Micah trying a couple figs picked fresh from our campus! Links: Concordia Seminary: csl.edu Request information: Request-Information...
