Yes this is a great idea! I think I'll start using this one:
Bless the Name
Curtis Hinson
What pronunciation should I use? Modern or Reconstructed, see Randall
Buth or your nearest Greek.
Should I use interlinears? No, never, they're evil and wrong and
they'll cripple your Greek ability.
How can I search the archive? Firefox: http://tinyurl.com/ydwjp6
Internet Explorer: http://tinyurl.com/ykro2m
I've having trouble with X encoding... Don't use it, use Unicode.
What bible software is best? BibleWorks, Gramcord, Accordance, and
Logos are all superb, depends on your needs.
Can I get the Greek bible on my PDA? Yes, there are half a dozen good
free and commercial PDA bible softwares.
