[B-Greek] Interlinear Greek-English NT

Hi Ken--

Very noble ambition.  Bless you!


As someone who has tried both routes-- trying to learn while leaning  
on an interlinear, and later taking classes and studying hard--

for me the latter was the clear winner: more affective, and MUCH  
faster (while not seeming so).


As you've probably gleaned from B-Greek postings, it's a life-long  
investment.  And well worth it!


I think it comes down to: 1) do you want to learn to read the GNT, or  
2) do you want to pretend to read the GNT?


Personally, the thought of reading English and having to look up  
every 5th word is quite unappealing.


Twenty years is a long time.  Any classes in your area?  Any one with  
whom you can refresh your skills?
How about a group online study program?


I know Bill Mounce's grammatical text takes some hits from critics  
(especially RE participles), but I enjoyed it.
There's a workbook available, with answers (some 'odd') available  
online.  Vocab & parsing quiz software is available online, too.

And nothing takes the place of DAILY hard work.  One hour a day and  
you'll be amazed at your progress after a month.


Enough blabbing.


Get a good grammar and a GNT and go attack 1 John!


[ Anyone out there like the old LaSor grammar ? ]
