Preface

Our intention is to provide a practical and desirable loose-leaf notebook to be used as an aid to learning and reviewing New Testament Greek. Memory work in this subject cannot be avoided, and some means of organizing, annotating, and reviewing the basic materials will be welcomed by all. This notebook can supplement any textbook in current use for first-, second-, or third-year Greek, and it will be helpful in any method of teaching.

Pastors, missionaries, and other professional interpreters of the Word will find the notebook a handy place to keep their exegetical notes. At the same time they will have in hand the standard grammatical and syntactical data to which one often turns when doing exegesis. Declensions, uses of cases and tenses, interpretation of participles and infinitives, the verb chart, synonyms, and the catalogue of principal parts can all be reviewed by simply lifting one of the clearly marked dividers of the notebook. Personal notes, favorite illustrations of grammatical constructions, and former professors’ contributions will all be there too, neatly organized in the same sections.

First-year students will find the vocabulary section especially helpful. The distinctive features here are the notebook method of learning and reviewing vocabulary, which can be faster and less monotonous than usual methods, and the association of words in significant grammatical and semantic groups. Some suggestions for learning vocabulary are also given. If the professor or textbook requires a different vocabulary, the one supplied can be removed and the new vocabulary written on blank sheets and inserted.

Most of the data printed in the notebook is standard and is given in outline form so that the coverage may be complete. If more detail, illustration, or explanation are needed, then the grammars, lexicons, and concordances should be consulted and notes inserted in the notebook at the appropriate places. This notebook is no substitute for textbooks and grammars, but ...
