A Daily Greek Devotional: 365 Devotions on the Greek New Testament

Overview

Two of the greatest needs for students of the Greek New Testament are motivation and daily practice. To build and maintain reading proficiency, students must see the practical difference made by knowing the language as they cultivate the habit of daily reading. With contributions from 37 New Testament scholars, A Daily Greek Devotional seeks to meet these needs.

Each of the 365 devotions consists of a carefully selected passage, a sentence or two of context, and a brief paragraph of commentary. The goal has been to offer key devotional insights based primarily on the Greek grammar and syntax.

Praise for A Daily Greek Devotional

A Daily Greek Devotional offers fresh insights and practical guidance for anyone seeking to regularly read the Greek New Testament. The contributors draw attention to features of grammar and syntax across the pages of the New Testament to strengthen readers’ grasp of Greek and, even more, to cultivate deeper knowledge of God and worship. I recommend this book for pastors, seminarians, and other current and former Greek students.

—Brian J. Tabb, Academic Dean and Professor of Biblical Studies, Bethlehem College and Seminary

Here we have a helpful tool which will assist pastors and students and teachers to keep using their Greek. It is especially helpful because it is short and pithy, which makes it user friendly. At the same time, readers are strengthened with reflections on the meaning of the text and the application for our lives today.

—Thomas R. Schreiner, James Buchanan Harrison Professor of New Testament Interpretation, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

We as Greek students with our busy schedules just don’t spend enough time in our Greek New Testaments. This book is a great way to solve this problem. A brief Greek passage, a word about context, then a helpful commentary along with parsing helps – what more could you ask for? I highly recommend this book for anyone wanting to spend more time applying their knowledge of Greek to the text of the New Testament.

—David Alan Black, Senior Professor of New Testament and Greek (Retired), Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
