Bible Discussion Thread

I want to know how to pronounce the word in greek and other language beside english that I speak, also I want to teach middle school student about faith and fear and how to study the bible were do I start Matthew,Mark, Luck and John

Thank you for your return answer.

Strongs Concordance, not Strings. [blush]

Paulette,

Good for you! A worthy goal. And I'll just second Richards starting book, John.

Regarding Greek words, get a Strings Concordance. It's as big as a dictionary. I have had this volume for decades for reference. More recently I've been using an the eSword app on my iPad, iPhone and desktop. It is FREE. As I recall, it comes loaded with the King James version and you can download Strongs for KJV. Strongs contains dictionary-like pronunciation guides and phonetic spelling of the Greek. Many other translations are available to download.

Hello Paulette,

In my opinion I would lead a student to read the book of John first. As this is my favorite of the four accounts of the Lords life and very unique to the other three. As all of the four books are unique, Matthew, Mark and Luke are close but have their own details. So it is good to read all. I would have them read John first then Matthew and then Mark & Luke.

Of coarse this is my personal opinion. Maybe others would like to share what they feel with other details. All for the Glory of the Lord.

God Bless and thank you for teaching children about the Lord.
