About this title

Synopsis

This text is part of a set of materials designed to facilitate the teaching and the learning of New Testament Greek. The title reflects my hope that these materials will be used in a wide range of settings: the traditional classroom at various levels, home schooling, review for clergy and classes within their parishes, and individual study. The text, along with the accompanying workbook and study guide, represents my attempt to provide as clear explanatory material as possible. I have tried to point out those places which often cause difficulty and I have tried, as much as possible, to offer explanations in easy to understand language. I sometimes describe myself as a guide who has been over the territory many times and knows where all the potholes and road blocks are. My intent is to guide you through and around these to an understanding of how Greek works. I have enjoyed producing these materials over the years and my students claim that they have enjoyed using them to learn Greek. I hope that you will complete our joy by making good use of them and by making your own discovery of the adventure of New Testament Greek. From the Preface Clear and helpful explanations, at times even conversational in tone, and subject material organized in a way which is extremely conducive to learning and enjoyment make Greek For All Ages an essential foundation for any Koine Greek student. Home-schoolers, church study groups, and seminarians alike will benefit greatly from this comprehensive yet approachable Greek course. The Rev. Tara Jernigan, M.A.R. Ann's material, both its content and its presentation, provided me with a solid foundation as I began learning Greek in seminary. Through seminary and beyond, as I continued my studies in biblical interpretation, I used her material as a resource both for reviewing broad concepts as well as for seeking clarification on the finer nuances of Greek. As I prepare to teach cross-culturally, I am beyond grateful to have Ann s textbook as a means for providing a clear and engaging introduction to Greek for students in East Africa.
