Read Greek in 30 Days [or less]: New Testament, Old Testament, Apocrypha, Philo, Church Fathers

W. Larry Richards
4.9/5 (12325 ratings)
Description:This second edition has three major changes. One, tables are provided in the Appendices that contain full conjugations and declensions with their translations. The first edition often gave just the first person singular (for verbs) or the nominative and genitive singular forms (for declensions) because it was assumed that the remaining forms would be obvious if the minimum was mastered. It became clear, however, that students wanted to see the complete form if only for confirmation purposes.Two, the title of the book reflects the second change. “Read Greek …” instead of “Read New Testament Greek …” This new title is followed with a subtitle that includes the New Testament as prominent but with other passages based on Koine Greek.New Testament Greek belongs to the large family of Koine Greek and, therefore, samplings of the Koine Greek are given in Appendix C, replacing Mark 3. The passages selected for this appendix are taken from the Old Testament, the Apocrypha, Philo and the Apostolic Fathers.Since most students taking Greek want to learn to read the New Testament in Greek, the Lessons remain essentially the same and are, therefore, built on the New Testament. Studying the passages in Appendix C, however, will provide confidence for those who wish to use Koine Greek beyond the New Testament.Three, an INDEX is provided, primarily to assist students who want to quickly review a form or definition without having to do a prolonged search in pages already covered.Minor changes include corrections and modifications: typos, consistency in referencing, and elimination of words or clauses in the practice exercises that could be construed as insensitive or that might be seen as making a subtle theological point. These have been changed.I wish to personally assure students, and teachers, for that matter, that it is not wishful thinking to believe Beginning Greek can be learned in less than 30 days. I teach Beginning Greek to seminary students on a regular schedule each summer in eleven class periods (over approximately 24 days) with a 100 percent success rate, and over 50 percent of these students are taking Greek for the first time. These same students then take Intermediate Greek in eleven class periods and pass a standardized test that is not prepared by me with a 95–100 percent success rate.April 5, 2012We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
