Biblical Greek Vocabulary in Context by Miles V. Van Pelt is designed to reinforce a student's basic Greek vocabulary by presenting words that occur twenty-five times or more in the context of the Greek New Testament.

Miles Van Pelt collates all 513 of these Greek words into approximately 200 key biblical verses and/or verse fragments to help students practice reading them in their literary context and thus improve their Greek vocabulary retention. Rather than rote memorization, Van Pelt's approach teaches word meaning through each word's naturally occurring context--the way people naturally learn languages.

The book includes two primary sections:

  1. The first section provides room for students to write their own glosses of the biblical verse and to parse as they feel necessary. An English translation is also provided, and any term that appears less than twenty-five times is glossed. Proper names are identified with gray text.

  2. The second section of the book provides the same biblical verses from the first section but with minimal room to write glosses and parse and without an English translation for aid. The end of the book includes a Greek-English lexicon of all the words occurring twenty-five times or more in the Greek New Testament.

Miles V. Van Pelt is the Alan Belcher Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Languages at Reformed Theological Seminary in Jackson, Mississippi where he also serves as the Academic Dean and the Director of the Summer Institute for Biblical Languages. As you can see from the list of publications, Miles is passionate about teaching the biblical languages and providing resources to help students learn. Each summer he directs a series of eight-week intensive language courses which include Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, and Latin. Graduate students from around the world show up each summer for this fully accredited program - the ultimate biblical language boot camp!
