My Newest Book
Today I finally received my Greek New Testament in the mail, Amazon normally ships in less than 24 hours, especially when they say “Ships in 24 hours”, but with this order it took 5 days for them to finally ship my NT. I am happy that it was delivered a week ahead of schedule.
I guess the reason that I am excited is because, I have the opportunity to learn greek and having the bible in greek gives me more motivation for why I should learn this funny dead language. Not to be elitist but to me the idea of reading the bible in greek is an amazing gift. This is probably as close as I will ever get to the original written words of God himself.
When I sat down to try and translate I found out that without the slight grammatical cheats that my text book gives, I am at the mercy of the greek dictionary in the back of my bible. So after an hour trying to translate Matthew 6:25 I realized that I had to finish up some homework for Pentateuch.
