Almost Greek

About this ebook
A literal translation of the New Testament from the original Koine Greek into current American English. Many important Koine Greek words are used in place of the nearest American equivalents or the traditionally published American equivalents. A lexicon is included which presents detailed definitions of these Koine Greek words. Verses from the Old Testament are included following the place where they are quoted in the New Testament. These Old Testament references include important Hebrew Aramaic or Chaldee words in place of the nearest American equivalent or the traditionally published American equivalent. The lexicon includes the numbers assigned to the Koine Greek words in the "Greek Dictionary" of STRONG'S EXHAUSTIVE CONCORDANCE OF THE BIBLE and the numbers assigned to the Hebrew and Chaldee words in Strong's "Hebrew and Chaldee Dictionary". This translation embraces the conviction that the Kingdom of God is a progressive revelation, given by God to mankind over thousands of years, so each successive writing builds upon those preceding it. Thus, the writings appear in the order in which they were written (to the best of our ability).
