Marking Up the Text of Romans<\/h1>\n

The Same Thing in Different Words<\/h2>\n

In many languages, and English in particular, we prefer variation in our words. We might repeat an idea, but we change the words slightly so we don’t sound like a broken record. In addition, every word has a basic meaning but it often includes subtle shades of additional meaning. By selecting which set of similar words we use in a discussion, we fine-tune the exact ideas we want to get across.<\/p>\n

We also should be aware of when the antonyms of our keywords are being used.<\/p>\n

Assignment:<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Read through the book of Romans a third time. Add synonyms and antonyms to your list of keywords.<\/li>\n
  2. Go through Romans marking the keywords of the book with colored icons so keywords are easily spotted. Use the same icon when synonyms are used. Use the same icon with a red slash through it when an antonym is used.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Who is this?<\/h2>\n

    Greek, like English, uses pronouns to refer back to who is being discussed. It is not uncommon for wrong conclusions to be drawn from a text simply because we don’t realize to whom the text is referring.<\/p>\n

    Assignment:<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. Take your list of people and assign each person or group a different color. If you are limited in the number of colors, make some shaded words, underlined words, and over-lined words.<\/li>\n
    2. Go through Romans marking all the people, including the pronouns, with the color code you devised.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Class Discussion:<\/h3>\n
        \n
      1. Give an example of marking up the first chapter in class.<\/li>\n
      2. What problems did you have in identifying pronouns?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tPrior Lesson\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRomans\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tNext Lesson\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
