Fascinating Facts About The Geneva Bible

Hackett’s grammar is arranged in 30 lessons which makes it excellent for intensive study over the period of 1 semester, or for 2 semesters over the course of an entire school year. During the study the student will encounter several new approaches to learning the language. First, Hackett lists verbal forms from 1st person to 3rd person, rather than the traditional approach of 3rd to 1st. She acknowledges that the traditional way is counter intuitive with English speaking students because they learn their verbs from 1st to 3rd.

Second, rather than introducing both strong and weak verbs together, Hackett divides them and presents all strong verbs first, and then introduces weak verbs near the end of the book. Again, the principle in play here is to follow a formal order that layers and slowly introduces nuance into the language rather than shifting back and forth between straight forward items, and more difficult aspects of the language.

Third, Hackett also jettisons what she believes are “old-fashioned methods” of teaching the Hebrew verbal system in favor of a more simple, but also more descriptive system using the terms “prefix conjugation” and “suffix conjugation”. She also uses ve-qatal to describe what is popularly known as the “converted perfect”.

Fourth, unlike many Hebrew grammars, Hackett introduces her verbal forms logically. She notes, “It is a logical progression to begin with the prefix conjugation and lead up to the consecutive preterite. The consecutive preterite is the form beginning students must know thoroughly in order to read most biblical prose, and in order to lead them to that form, I needed to introduce the jussive, and in order to introduce the jussive, I first needed to present the prefix conjugation.”

Finally, Hackett introduces several new pedagogical techniques in her grammar. She emphasizes accent marks in her exercises, though both are artificial, or written by Hackett rather than taken from the biblical text. But Hackett’s goal justifies her actions; she wants “to present both disjunctive and conjunctive accents to the students, and at this early time in their biblical Hebrew study, the impossibility of some of my combinations will not affect their learning the [accent] system as a whole.” Along with this Hackett does stress the memorization of paradigms, and supplies verbs, where needed, to complete the paradigm even if a particular verbal form does not appear in the Hebrew text.

The CD which accompanies the book contains several helpful features for the student, not least of which is its helpful pronunciation guide. This includes the pronunciation of all Hebrew-to-English exercises in lessons 1-15, and the first two exercises of lessons 16-30. It also supplies the full pronunciation of Genesis 22.1-19, a common text used by instructors to help students learn pronunciation. Lastly, the answers for the books exercises can be found on the CD-ROM, and an additional workbook containing graded reading of biblical passages, glosses, additional vocabulary, is in the works and will be keyed to this book.

This volume presents a comprehensive synopsis of the Scriptures (in Hebrew and Greek) quoted in the New Testament, including variants and Second Temple Jewish literature.

Israel’s Scriptures in the New Testament offers scholars and advanced students of the Bible with a tool to facilitate study of the text behind every confirmed use of the Old Testament in the New Testament. For over two hundred OT chapters quoted in the NT, this volume provides brief commentary, source texts in Hebrew and Greek versions, corresponding NT text(s), Jewish sources that use the same OT material, and extensive text-critical details. The volume is intended to be used for rigorously comparing (1) the Hebrew/Aramaic textual form of the OT with the Greek translation(s), (2) each OT source text with its NT quotation, and (3) NT texts with each other where they quote the same OT source. This book provides the essential raw materials for studying the phenomenon of biblical intertextuality across the entire canon of Christian Scripture as well as other Second Temple Jewish writings.

This textual synopsis is the most exhaustive resource of its kind available for biblical studies.

If you have studied Biblical Greek, you know that even after two or three semesters in the classroom it can be easy to soon forget most of what you learned, especially vocabulary.

Keep Up Your Biblical Greek in Two Minutes a Day: Volume 1 has been specially designed to build on your previous study of Greek and help you read a small amount of the New Testament in its original language every day in an easy, manageable, and spiritually enriching way. It does not replace the need for a grammar or textbook; rather, it complements grammatical study by helping you to build a robust vocabulary and to review morphology and syntax in a completely inductive way, and without using any grammatical jargon.
