    These videos are thoughtful and well-done – it’s like having your own Greek tutor walk you verse-by-verse through the letter! The videos have been a key part of my preparation to preach through Philippians this fall.

    I have now watched all of the video sets available as of Dec 2018. They are all good but this is one of the best. Mark is a very well organised teacher. He begins each video with a reminder of the context then reads it using a modern pronunciation. The punctuation of each passage is then examined so we know where we are going and participial phrases are marked out. Talking about the marking, the slides never get as messy with his markings as some of those in the series by other teachers. Also, unlike the others, he uses OneNote which is very flexible and allows him to type notes as he is talking. These are neater and easier to read than handwritten notes. He has made slides of all the parsings which are regularly referred to. He goes into great detail and does not assume a lot of prior knowledge but he never rambles. Finally after all has been covered there is a page with a structural layout of the passage and a final translation. The final translation is not perfectly polished English such as an English Bible would have but it clearly indicates what the Greek is saying. Given all that, it is not surprising that each video is about 30 min long. I have sometimes paused one half way and come back the next day. The software remembers where I left off and there are always natural breaks in the teaching where one can pause.

    Negatives? Not much. He mentions verbal aspect but when he talks about it he doesn’t deal with it in the way Porter et al do. I’m no expert so I hesitate to mention this and I may have complete misunderstood in my ignorance.

    A final plea. Please could all future videos use OneNote too and type in the notes, provide full parsings, and a final printed translation as these do.
