Overview

Students often want to maintain their Biblical Greek when they’re between courses, but they don’t know where to start. This book provides 90 days of guided reading and brief exercises to help students retain their knowledge and skill in reading and interpreting Biblical Greek.

Noted language expert Benjamin Merkle guides readers through level-appropriate texts selected from across the New Testament canon, encouraging them to read and analyze one or two verses a day. The book begins with easy texts and gradually increases in difficulty through the 90 days. Each reading ends with a section called “For the Journey,” which provides a practical application or reflection on the text, and each chapter provides an answer key so students can check their work.

This follow-up to Merkle’s Exegetical Gems from Biblical Greek is ideal for Greek language students after their first year of study and for those who want to revive their knowledge and love of Biblical Greek. A companion volume on Hebrew is forthcoming.
