Greek without Tears - Revised Edition

The book assumes that in learning to translate the Greek New Testament, it is necessary to know (a) the Greek letters, (b) the alterations to the roots, (c) the rules of agreement, and (d) the vocabulary. By comparing the original Greek against the English translation, the author considerably reduces the effort needed to accomplish this worthwhile adventure. Many students who have used this book have enjoyed it, and one student who succeeded admirably in his study of Greek without Tears writes: The notes were brief and very clear, the illustrations graphic and sometimes humorous, and the concepts easily understood and retained. These notes shall ever be among my choicest and most treasured compilation of theological study material!

Ted Edwards was Principal of Regent College of the Caribbean (formerly Jamaica Bible College). Known as a gifted administrator, teacher, and scholar, he obtained Distinction in Greek grammar, syntax, and composition at the University of London. His love for Spanish and Latin, which he has taught for many years, inspired his passionate study of Greek. His aim is to foster such love for Greek among Christians that they will desire to read the New Testament in its original tongue. He is also the author of Let Us Reason Concerning Tongues (1978).
