This question is very pertinent for me at the moment, as I am in the process of 
preparing a workbook for a beginners' of New Testament Greek that I plan to 
teach at a Bible College this fall.

I am starting with nouns, as I find that vocabulary interests me, not more than 
verbs, but without the vocab, the verbs do not make sense.

I am having a question about declensions; would it not be easier, if the nouns 
were simply arranged according to gender and classified further, according to 
their endings?
