FROM PRE-PUBLICATION REVIEWS OF GREEK FOR PREACHERS Greek for Preachers "How paradoxical: Nothing grounds modern preaching in Christian hope more than Bible study. For the adventurous and studious preacher wishing to explore fully the New Testament text-but knowing little Greek-here is a detailed guide for using a Greek/English Interlinear Bible in weekly sermon preparation. Joseph Webb, today's most published theorist of postmodern preaching, and Robert Kysar, extensively published in New Testament homiletics, make the Greek Bible accessible to preachers who want scripture to be central to their ministries." Gregory Heille Aquinas Institute of Theology "This dynamic book will help you bring the New Testament to life in your sermons by alerting you to pulses of meaning that are lost in English translation. The heart of the book is ten clear, practical, and well-illustrated principles for uncovering dimensions of significance in the Greek text. The authors introduce you to the alphabet, to Greek words, and to making use of Greek through an interlinear Greek/English New Testament. Greek for Preachers is ideal for a seminary of Bible college class, for a study group of clergy colleagues, or for a pastor's individual use." Ronald J. Allen Christian Theological Seminary |
