NT Polyglot Receiving Praise

Image
Only a couple of months ago, I and one of my mentors, Dr. Fred Long, published our first volume (of at least 5 volumes) in our Hexapla series.  You can see samples at www.NTPolyglot.com .  That first volume, our Polyglot on Luke-Acts has started receiving some great reviews.  You can read a review by Matthew Montonini HERE , by Dr. John Byron HERE and by Dr. Nijay Gupta HERE .  In all of the reviews, the common praise is that this series provides readers of the NT with a wonderful way of keeping up with their theological languages.  So, if you still haven't picked up your copy, I would highly encourage you to do so.  In fact, we have decided to keep the discount code open for just a little while longer, which gives you 20% off when you purchase the book HERE .  Here's the link to that code:   Polyglot Discount Code .  

Now Available!!! A Parallel & Interlinear New Testament Polyglot

Image
Today, I am pleased to announce the release of Volume 1 in the brand new Hexapla series that I have been working on with one of my mentors, Dr. Fred Long.  The first installment, Luke-Acts, is found in Hebrew, Latin, Greek, English, German, and French.  For those wanting to retain language abilities for research or recreation, this volume, which contains the Gospel of Luke in interlinear format and the Book of Acts in parallel format, is perfect for you!  It is also perfect for biblical studies and theological students (especially those of upper-level study) as it will help you prepare for exams.  Well, instead of saying so much about it here, let me point you to the website where you can read about it, see some examples and purchase it!  To visit the site, click the following link:   www.NTPolyglot.com .  Also, work on future volumes is already underway, so, be on the lookout!  Spread the word about this great resource!
