<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am double minded about the question of how the 
koine  should be pronounced.  On the one hand, it would be easier to 
pick up the differences between words if the recording consistently used a 
scheme that clearly distinguished the pronunciation of vowels and 
dipthongs.  On the other hand, I suspect that there may be places where the 
New Testament is using a play on words that is only obvious when read 
aloud.  It would be helpful for the pronunciation to make those word plays 
somewhat obvious.</FONT></DIV>
