Would like to get a start on seminary school Greek - anyone recommend any books for a complete beginner?

Mounce's book (can't remember what it's called, but the name is self-evident) is practically a complete teach yourself guide. Comes with a CD and access to a website with lectures. Way better than the book we used in college!

without a doubt Mounce is the best way in. Get his book that has the CD of lectures and you'll be well on your way.

Bless you all for your help

Thanks

This is the rewrite of the classic Wenham by Jeremy Duff (THE college textbook when I did NT Greek 20 years ago, which has everything you need and has supplementary materials like a C.D. and dictionary:

before you buy, Rachel, does your seminary programme (not sure exactly where you are in relation to starting) offer any advice? I'm sure you could ask them and get something that would dovetail with the course you hope to do. One thing to watch out for: US grammars print noun declensions in a different order from English ones, and learning one can make it hard to switch to the other.

Rev R Marszalek said...

20 years ago Gill - is that possible?

Rev R Marszalek said...

Thanks Doug - I'll watch my declensions!

Gill Stanning said...

Sadly: yes it is possible (more than)...sigh...
