Biblical Greek June 28, 2006 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Reads like a textbook; Covers the Greek language from Alpha to Zeta; recommend reading for those interested in learning the language!
Good for beginners with no Greek background March 31, 2006 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is being used as a text book in one of my seminary classes. I have learned much from it. Mounce presents the language in small non-intimidating chunks. He WANTS you to learn the language and his approach is helping me to. Yes, there are aspects of Biblical Greek that are difficult, but Mounce's engaging style, exegetical insights, and cd-rom that is included, all combine to guide readers into a usable knowledge of Biblical Greek.
Fantastic Beginning Koine Greek Textbook March 18, 2006 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have been taking Koine Greek @ my church, and we have been using William Mounce's Textbook and workbook. His material, accompanying CD with software and lectures is just simply outstanding. I HIGHLY recommend his method for learning Greek. He really has a gift for making the language easier to understand and learn. Our class is half away through nouns, and will be getting into Verbs very shortly. Mounce, from what I have been told, has simplified the learning process for Greek to a completely new level. Years before, one would need to learn and memorize 48+ paradigms for just nouns alone, but he has simplified it to primarily one paradigm with 8 noun rules that must be accurately followed. Mounce's work is simply the best. He has collected and put together not only a challenging but also an enjoyable collection of material that makes even learning by yourself very acheivable. http://www.teknia.com is his website that includes an offer to buy an entire year or two semester worth of Lectures that go into further detail than the lectures found on the CD included with the Textbook, second edition. He has made learn Koine Greek so straight forward and approachable. What he has done has simply been an incredible blessing to me.
Different than older grammars March 10, 2006 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This grammar uses a different system for breaking down words in Greek. So if you teach first year Greek and have learned your paradigms in the older methods that were common (Machen, Summers, etc...) you better spend some time in this before using it in the classroom.
I like this grammar a lot for people who are studying Greek to read the bible. It gives you the 314 most commonly used NT words...and around 30 lessons...so you are not learning words which never appear in the Greek NT. If you plan to read other Greek material, then this may not be as great of a method. It is focused on the NT vocabulary. After two semesters a student should be able to navigate eighty percent of the Greek NT using this method. That's about as fast as one can possibly gain competency.
The binding and pages are laid out in nice fonts and durable material. It's a sound method and I really love this book. Get a copy if you can!
Great Textbook February 20, 2006 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is very clear cut, and easy to understand. The lessons are easy to follow. It is much better to purchase the workbook and vocabulary cards along with the textbook. It makes the lessons really come to life. The correlations Mounce draws between English grammar and Greek are helpful.
