Yeah, but if you are reading the Septuagint just because it is FUN, who cares 
if your understanding is erroneous!

That can wait till you are good and ready to study a grammar book in depth 
because you WANT to. You only need "correct" conclusions if you are trying to 
convince people they are "wrong" and need to do things your way :-)

Rev. Pickrel, have you seen the Dobson book? It's kind of like a "Dick and 
Jane" reading book. My son likes READING it better than writing out 
translations. It's a cheapy little paperback that any bookstore can order for you so you 
won't even need to worry about the cost of shipping.

Joy is a LOT more fun than trying to be "correct" :-) Just because we are 
studying Greek doesn't mean we can't approach it like French and just slaughter 
it, if we want to :-)

With all due respect, Rev. Pickrel, I often find that when individuals such 
as 
yourself actually attempt to use what they have learned, that their 
understanding of the Greek will be erroneous and their conclusions even  
worse, 
but I hope that you are an exception to that general rule.
