  Southwestern Journal of Theology 2023 Book Award (Honorable Mention, Biblical Reference/Biblical Backgrounds) 
   
  Often students want to maintain their Biblical Greek when they're between courses, but they don't know where to start. This book provides ninety days of guided reading and brief exercises to help students retain or revive their knowledge and skill in reading and interpreting Biblical Greek. 
   
  Noted language expert Benjamin Merkle guides readers through level-appropriate texts selected from across the New Testament canon, encouraging them to read and analyze one or two verses a day. The book begins with easy texts and gradually increases in difficulty through the 90 days. Each reading ends with a section called "For the Journey," which provides a practical application or reflection on the text, and an answer key so that students can check their work. 
   
  This follow-up to Merkle's Exegetical Gems from Biblical Greek is ideal for Greek language students after their first year of study and for those who want to revive their knowledge and love of Biblical Greek. A companion volume on Hebrew is available.

  Introduction to the 100 Somethings Language Learning Series
   
  
   
  Welcome to a fresh approach to language learning! This series helps you master a new language (Spanish) by exploring topics that spark your interest, like Ancient Civilizations. Each book focuses on a theme—art, science, history, and more—and presents 100 carefully chosen facts in both English and the target language.
   
  
   
  Here’s how it works: Each fact is first shown in the target language for you to interpret. On the next page, the fact appears in English, then repeated in the target language to help clarify unfamiliar terms. This concise, repetitive format aids memorization without extra fluff. The second half reverses the order—English, target language, then English—challenging you to translate both ways and master the content.
   
  
   
  Benefits include:
   
  
   
  - Concise Learning: Simple, one-sentence facts make every word meaningful and easy to remember.
   
  
   
  - Reinforcement: Alternating languages strengthens vocabulary and grammar naturally, bridging both languages through practice.
   
  
   
  - Contextual Engagement: Learning vocabulary tied to topics you love keeps the process dynamic and memorable.
   
  
   
  - Dual Knowledge: As you learn the language, you also deepen your understanding of fascinating subjects.
   
  
   
  Designed for learners who value clear, focused information, this series ensures an effective and enjoyable educational experience. Whether a beginner or advancing your skills, embark on this journey of 100 facts, letting your passions drive your language mastery!

  The 1000 essential Greek words. Modern Greek is the mother tongue of 15 million speakers, of whom 10.7 million are in Greece where it is an official language, as in Cyprus. How to learn a language differently ? Today, language learning is revolutionizing : you do not have to go to traditional language classes anymore. Our learning method : a selection of hundreds of phrases and essential words. You listen to them, you repeat them, and you speak. We rely on pronunciation, oral rehearsal, listening, combined with words, essential phrases, and a vocabulary list. 20% of the words are used 80% of the time. The end goal is to get a sufficient level in one language to be able to hold simple conversations, to be able to understand simple exchanges, deal with with everyday life and start exploring the new culture that opens up to you.
