Practical Workbook to J. Gresham Machen's New Testament Greek for Beginners

by Hobert Farrell

Overview

This Workbook, which has been developed in teaching from Machen for about 35 years, enhances Machen's excellent book on beginning New Testament Greek in the following ways. First, it completes the paradigms that are incomplete. Second, it singles out these models for study and review providing practice sheets. Third, it gives summaries of the models to help gain a larger perspective on the grammatical components. Fourth, it provides summaries of the principal parts of verbs. Fifth, it provides a comprehensive review in the Appendix for use during second year translation and additional grammatical study. In these ways this Workbook helps the student in using Machen's superbly sequenced presentation of first year Greek grammar. The Workbook assists the instructor by setting out the important memory work in a convenient form that may also be used outside of class to save class time for translating the sentences and discussing the grammatical points of each lesson.
