Overview

Big Greek Idea provides all the relevant information from the Greek text for preaching and teaching the New Testament. Each New Testament book is divided into units of thought, revealing a big Greek idea (the author's main idea in the passage), and individual clauses are displayed visually to illustrate their relationships, portraying the biblical author's logical flow. Greek clauses are accompanied by an original English translation. Additional commentary explains how the syntax and vocabulary of each verse clarifies the biblical writer's intended meaning. The authors of each volume have scoured major reference works and commentaries on each book, saving readers countless hours of research. The series is ideal for busy pastors consulting the Greek text for sermons, instructors preparing lectures, and students looking for supplementary study aids. Each volume in this series contains many practical features: Helpful charts, tables, and diagrams illustrate key points Numerous callouts provide deeper insights into word meanings and theological issues Visual cues highlight important information An introduction to each biblical book summarizes the grammar, style, and vocabulary of the book as a whole, including reminders and explanations of key terms ""Pastors often don't have sufficient training in the exegesis of Scripture, or have forgotten much of what they learned in seminary. The Big Greek Idea series is a helpful tool to remedy this situation. Highly recommended for those who want to sharpen their Greek skills and become better interpreters and expositors of God's Word."" --Mark L. Strauss, Bethel University ""Greek can be intimidating to many interpreting the New Testament. Here is a tool that works in great detail and with exceptional clarity. This study shows what the Greek text is doing at all relevant levels of meaning."" --Darrell L. Bock, Dallas Theological Seminary
