The drill was that each week we had a different pericope to process, find words we wanted to study, etc.<br /><br />Invariably, after I had done my week's work of thinking on my own, I would turn to a good commentary or dictionary and find that I had come to must the same conclusion.<br /><br />I loved that class....
