News of Koine Greek And Mounce's Basics of Biblical Greek

Hi all I found a site with wonderful help for us studying Bill's book. It has handouts, quiz's, vocab study pages, reading help. Just a really great find. I don't know if you all know about it, but it was a gold mine for me.
Look through the site there is a lot of things there.
God bless, Jimmy Montesano

That sentence uses every letter in the Eng. alphabet. Does anyone know of a Bible verse in Greek which does the same? This would be helpful for teaching greek penmanship to children.

Do any of you all memorize the charts that are given in Mounce's grammar? Are there any recommendations concerning it, such do or don't, or which ones are the most helpful?

I started learning Greek in May, and since I enjoy reading the Bible, particularly in Hebrew, I thought trying to read it in Greek while I'm learning would be a lot of fun, and it is!

Hi all
I am at chapter 19, chapter 20 looks intense. Back to my question. I have been constantly reviewing the vocab throughout the book as I go on. But I'm finding as I'm adding to the memory slots, as Bill says, I am forgeting things like the paridigm for the relitive pronouns and other things. How often should I review? How do you all do the review of chapters, or do you at all, ...

I would like to learn Biblical Greek, but I am not close to an institution that teaches it. I would like to go someplace for a summer to do an intensive course. I would also like to receive undergraduate credit for it. Does anyone know of such a program?

Thanks.

Could this be translated,

"and no one answered anything"

I've seen a)pokri/nomai take its object in the dative before

What is a better translation in Koine, and what are the strengths and weaknesses of each-


e)gw\ de\ ptwxo\j kai\ pe/nhj


I've seen some grammars explain this construction should be "both"

I am both poor and needy

while some translations use the more literal say "but... and" - Such as in the
But I am poor and needy

I have been through the "Basic's of Biblical Greek" by William Mounce, and I have been reviewing it every day now for quite awhile. But I have yet to learn everything in it to perfection. I was wanting to know if it would be better to keep learning and memorizing every little detail from the Basics until I get it all down, or is it OK and normal to move on with the intentions of ...

I just ordered the workbook that is from Mounce, and it is the workbook that goes with the Textbook of the "Basic's of Bibical Greek." Has anyone here used it? Is is any good? What ways will it help me? I have already been through the textbook and I have reviewed it a number of times to get as much out of it as I can. It has been a blessing! But I still need ...
