The Epistles of John: An Essential Reader for Students of Biblical Greek

Do you want to read the Greek New Testament with fluency? If so, then this book is for you. The Epistles of John: An Essential Reader for Students of Biblical Greek is unique. It contains, for each word in the text, a simple translation, grammatical description, lexical form, conjugation/declension forms, paradigm type, and paradigm endings. Students who master this basic information for each word will soon see the benefits of their labors. They will recognize alternative forms of words as they encounter them in other contexts; they will associate inflectional patterns with grammatical meanings and thereby understand critical information in the passage; and they will begin to process the Greek text with greater confidence and fluency. Students of Biblical Greek should devote as much time as possible to reading, an appropriate act of receptive communication in authentic language. This book can facilitate that process by making reading the Epistles of John both possible and enjoyable. Our prayer for every reader is found in St. Paul’s second letter to Timothy. “14 But as for you, continue in what you have learned and firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it, 15 and how from childhood you have known the sacred writings that are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. 16 All scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, 17 so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:14-17.
