• Vocabulary

    About 300 Greek words are used 50 times or more in the New Testament. When you can remember the meanings of most of these common words, the Greek New Testament begins to feel like a neighborhood you are familiar with, rather than a strange and/or scary place to visit.
    Croy refers to N. Clayton Croy, A Primer of Biblical Greek (Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, 1999).
