Synopsis

1-3 John: A General Reader is a Tier 3 resource designed to build confidence in understanding Greek and to encourage the reading of the Greek New Testament by providing vocabulary glosses, morphological explanations, and translation helps.

Any student who uses this book will be able to exercise and extend his or her beginning Greek education, see how grammatical and syntactical classifications affect meaning and translation in context, and read directly from the Greek New Testament.

About this title

From the Back Cover

"Far too many Greek students who once spent heroic hours poring over paradigms and sweating over syntax can affirm this somber truth: 'You lose what you do not use.' 1-3 John: A General Reader seeks to prevent pupils from relinquishing what they have learned by navigating them through the text with footnotes that provide lexical aid and morphological help. Other footnotes introduce variants and assist the students in translation so that they can enjoy God's Word all the more. This is a resource that I will begin using in my first year Greek course--towards the end of the second semester--in hopes that they will finish it the following summer."
     Joseph R. Dodson
     Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies, Ouachita Baptist University

"This is a must-have for those wishing to critically read 1-3 John in the original Greek. What would take the regular Greek reader hours in learning new vocabulary, analysis of variant textual manuscripts, grammar, and various textual problems, is reduced to a matter of minutes, if not seconds, by using this book. It is evident that lots of hard work and thought were put into this General Reader."
     Charles Sullivan

"As an elementary Greek student, 1-3 John: A General Reader has proved to be a great tool in my Greek studies and my devotional life. It has helped to give me confidence moving forward in the language in terms of vocabulary, pronunciation, and parsing."

"1-3 John: A General Reader is an invaluable tool for any Greek student no matter what level of competency. The footnotes help with vocabulary, syntax, and grammar, and this makes interacting with the Greek New Testament easy and accessible. Furthermore, this book equips students to be able to  successfully navigate the exegetical process."
