It makes learning Greek a natural process and shows from the very beginning how an understanding of Greek helps in understanding the New Testament. Basics of Biblical Greek: combines the best of the deductive and the inductive approaches, explains the basics of English grammar before teaching Greek grammar, uses from the very beginning parts of verses from the New Testament instead of 'made-up' exercises, includes at the beginning of every lesson a brief devotional, written by a well-known New Testament scholar, that demonstrates how the principles taught in the lesson apply directly to an understanding of the biblical text, is the most popular first-year Greek course used in colleges and seminaries today, comes with an interactive study aid CD-ROM, containing an eight-minute greeting from the author and the fun, helpful, and graphical vocabulary-memorizing program 'Learning the Basics of Biblical Greek' (runs on Power Mac and Windows 95), where you can hear Greek words pronounced and sung in more than 200 familiar hymns. The CD-ROM also contains the powerful Greek vocabulary-drilling programs Flashworks(TM) and Parseworks from Teknia Language Tools (runs on Macintosh and Windows 3.1 and 95).

Book excerpt: Greek & Hebrew Study Tools is a textbook for learning how to study biblical Greek and Hebrew words without having to learn the languages. This methodical approach provides a disciplined process to help the student focus correctly on lexical features and usages. Beginning with the grammar of the student's English translation, textual and lexical analysis relies on the work of language scholars who have expertise in translation, word meaning, and usage.The English student learns important, direction-setting details from the familiar English language and then uses that information to navigate the technical details of interlinear tools and standard lexica. The process helps distinguish relevant from non-relevant information, although details are pointed out related to the use of target words in other contexts. Students work through grammatical details, carefully guided to ensure a properly focused pathway to understand the meaning of words in context. The final tools used are an English dictionary and thesaurus, teaching the student how to evaluate fine nuances of meaning and understand decisions made by translators.The words analyzed in the book to demonstrate each step are "exalt" and "salvation" from Exodus 15:2 and "marvel" and "grace" from Galatians 1:6.Michael C. Beard (M.A. Linguistics, Wayne State University; M.A. NT Greek, Western Seminary) is Academic Director and Instructor at Alaska Bible Institute in Homer, Alaska. Mr. Beard has also written fiction books and short stories. Michael lives in Homer, Alaska, with his wife, Wanda S. Beard.

The fourth part of the book contains charts and dictionaries of prefixes, suffixes, words and roots of the Hebrew language to assist the reader with vocabulary definitions and comprehension. Within a short amount of time the Hebrew student will soon be reading the Bible through the eyes of the author rather than the opinions of a translator.
