A Major in Biblical Languages requires completion of the University CORE (49 hours), 30 hours of GREK and HEBR courses,
a minor in Christian Studies, and CHST 1001. Students may choose to major in Christian Studies in place of the
minor.
This major equips students to read and interpret biblical texts directly from the
language in which they were originally written. It provides an essential foundation
for those desiring to be accurate biblical teachers, preachers or translators, as
well as providing preparation for a variety of graduate studies at seminaries or other
institutions of higher learning.
Minor in Biblical Languages
All Ouachita students have the opportunity to take either Greek or Hebrew as their CORE
Foreign Language Requirement. In addition, Ouachita offers a Minor in Biblical Languages,
Biblical Hebrew and New Testament Greek. Each of those minors includes six classes
or three years of study.
