“The reason that [Greek grammar is] good for you, of course, is that the depth of your preaching or teaching from the New Testament depends in large part on how well you handle the original Greek.”
David Alan Black
“Pastors who do not know Greek are forced to borrow their ideas from others. They are slaves to the commentators, but have no means to check their accuracy. The best tools of interpretation are beyond their reach. Not even the English translations they use are completely trustworthy. Worst of all, without thorough training in Greek they may discover that they are passing on in the name of God their own ignorance, based upon erroneous interpretations.”
David Alan Black, Using New Testament Greek in Ministry: A Practical Guide for Students and Pastors
“After the resurrection of Christ, the Septuagint became the Bible of the Christian church and a powerful instrument for conveying to the whole world the knowledge of the true God that had already been given to the Jews.”
David Alan Black, Why Four Gospels?
