Introducing Koine Greek by Jared August is the only work on the market written primarily for college undergraduates. It is, by design, understandable, practical, and accessible. Having taught Greek to undergraduates many years ago, I can attest that this work fills an important niche. August’s goal is to provide the student only what he/she needs to know to learn the language. Absent, for example, are those pesky accent rules, most of which are not necessary to learning how to read New Testament Greek. Here is a concise but complete first year grammar organized for maximum efficiency and effect. Highly recommended.

Dr. August has written a Greek grammar for undergraduate students that is both practical and accessible. This textbook not only expedites the learning of Koine Greek, but also empowers students to apply the Scriptures to life. A manageable, straightforward resource that is pedagogically written with little complexity and greater intentionality toward the students’ retention and understanding of God’s revealed Word.
