Students often want to maintain their Biblical Greek when they're
between courses, but they don't know where to start. This book
provides ninety days of guided reading and brief exercises to help
students retain their knowledge and skill in reading and
interpreting Biblical Greek. Noted language expert Benjamin Merkle
guides readers through level-appropriate texts selected from across
the New Testament canon, encouraging them to read and analyze one
or two verses a day. The book begins with easy texts and gradually
increases in difficulty through the 90 days. Each reading ends with
a section called "For the Journey," which provides a practical
application or reflection on the text, and an answer key so that
students can check their work. This follow-up to Merkle's
Exegetical Gems from Biblical Greek is ideal for Greek language
students after their first year of study and for those who want to
revive their knowledge and love of Biblical Greek. A companion
volume on Hebrew is forthcoming.
Learning Greek is a difficult task, and the payoff may not be
readily apparent. To demonstrate the insight that knowledge of
Greek grammar can bring, Benjamin Merkle summarizes 35 key Greek
grammatical issues and their significance for interpreting the New
Testament. This book is perfect for students looking to apply the
Greek they have worked so hard to learn as well as for past
students who wish to review their Greek.
This work offers students the most current discussion of the major
issues in Greek and linguistics by leading authorities in the
field. Featuring an all-star lineup of New Testament Greek
scholars--including Stanley Porter, Constantine Campbell, Stephen
Levinsohn, Jonathan Pennington, and Robert Plummer--it examines the
latest advancements in New Testament Greek linguistics, making it
an ideal intermediate supplemental Greek textbook. Chapters cover
key topics such as verbal aspect, the perfect tense, deponency and
the middle voice, discourse analysis, word order, and
pronunciation.
Learning Greek is one thing. Retaining it and using it in
preaching, teaching, and ministry is another. In this volume, two
master teachers with nearly forty years of combined teaching
experience inspire readers to learn, retain, and use Greek for
ministry, setting them on a lifelong journey of reading and loving
the Greek New Testament. Designed to accompany a beginning or
intermediate Greek grammar, this book offers practical guidance,
inspiration, and motivation; presents methods not usually covered
in other textbooks; and surveys helpful resources for recovering
Greek after a long period of disuse. It also includes devotional
thoughts from the Greek New Testament. The book will benefit anyone
who is taking (or has taken) a year of New Testament Greek.
What is the best framework for reading the Bible? The question of
how to relate the Old and New Testaments is as old as the Bible
itself. While most Protestants are unified on the foundations,
there are major disagreements on particular issues. Who should be
baptized? Is the Christian obligated to obey the Law of Moses? Does
the church supplant Israel? Who are the proper recipients of God's
promises to Israel? In Discontinuity to Continuity, Benjamin Merkle
brings light to the debates between dispensational and covenantal
theological systems. Merkle identifies how Christians have
attempted to relate the Testaments, placing viewpoints along a
spectrum of discontinuity to continuity. Each system's concerns are
sympathetically summarized and critically evaluated. Through his
careful exposition of these frameworks, Merkle helps the reader
understand the key issues in the debate. Providing more light than
heat, Merkle's book will help all readers better appreciate other
perspectives and articulate their own.

other textbooks; and surveys helpful resources for recovering

possessed? * Are there territorial spirits? * Why and when did the
