Amen to that, Carlton! Often-times I will realize that what I am
telling my students doesn't sound quite right. Then, I have to back up
and rethink what I thought certain I understood. Certainly, in exegesis
courses, I learn as much as my students, each time around. I had a
professor in seminary who could not admit to being mistaken--I didn't
learn much from him. Another professor (much older) was willing to be
corrected, if appropriate--I think I learned more about Greek under 1
year of his tutelage, than in the 5 years prior combined.
