A Reader in Biblical Greek

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This reader is admirably suited for a follow-up course after basic Greek. The Greek notes give extensive help with vocabulary, parsing, syntax, and idioms on a level appropriate for second-year students. The passages reflect important issues within the early church, with some of the texts interlinked for comparison, so students have the opportunity not only to read Greek but also to engage themes in early Christian thought on the basis of primary sources in the original language. Thus, this reader provides a resource for deepening both a student’s knowledge of Greek and their experience of its value.”

Daily Scriptures

Bible Studies & Devotionals

“This is a uniquely valuable resource for reading short biblical texts in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin. The thoughtful selection and arrangement of the readings provide brief examples of connections within the biblical canon and the relation between the biblical writings and their early Greek and Latin translations. Thus, this book gives us an opportunity not only to practice our reading skills but also to engage the text in ways that exemplify the importance of working in the original languages.”

Many Things In Parables

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“"Borsch's skillful use of illustrations [helps] bridge the gulf between our experience and what we hear in the parables. . . . I command this book as a wonderful introduciton to the parables. It would make a good textbook for either school or parish. Preachers will find much to stimulate their meditation.”

The Woman, the Hour, and the Garden

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Hart gives us not only a wonderful study of several key themes in the Gospel of John but also a very accessible reading of Scripture in company with the ancient church. . . . Here we have a contemporary example of how to read the Scriptures on their own terms, not just for the sake of gaining thoughts and ideas but for a life-giving encounter with the one to whom they bear witness.”
