Today is the day that Exegetical Tools comes into its own and begins to realize a vision that began three years ago. I wanted this site to be a hub for biblical languages and exegesis, and three years ago I began making Greek Reading Videos.
After beginning my PhD program at Westminster Theological Seminary, I simply ran out of time in the week and put the project on halt. When I began teaching Greek at Westminster, I found a good opportunity to begin creating Basic Greek Videos by recording my lectures after teaching a class. Hopefully, the Basic Greek Videos will be done by the end of this month.
More important than the Basic Greek Videos, however, are Greek Reading Videos. If there is one thing that is most important to retaining and improving your Greek, it’s reading Greek! We know it’s difficult to keep up with morphology, syntax, and vocabulary on your own, so our Greek Reading Videos serve you by walking you through the translation of an entire New Testament book while focusing especially on those three elements from Basic Greek that tend to slip so quickly from our memories: morphology, syntax, and vocabulary.
Without further ado, you can find our Colossians Greek Reading Videos here, along with a video introducing them and the first three videos available for preview. (Please know the first three videos have slightly lesser audio and video quality, which I was able to fix with a new microphone and better screencast software for the rest of the series.)
