About the Author
John Poly has been a minister and bible educator for over 50 years, as well as an experienced public speaker. He has developed a deep interest in the languages of the bible and modern greeek as the result of his years of reasearch into numerous Bible translations, reference works, lexicons, grammars, and Greek interlinear translations.
The author's parents were Greek immigrants from the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. He and his brother and two sisters were born in New York City, and have lived in different parts of the country. The author hopes to someday visit the birthplace of his parents.
"Bible Greek" is the language of the "New Testament," written by Jesus Christ’s disciples some 2000 years ago. It is referred to as Koine, or Common Greek. The age of the Koine is from about 300 B.C.E., during the period of Alexander the Great, to 330 C.E.
Striking likenesses between Koine and the modern Greek vernacular have been noted, in fact there is little difference between the Greek of the "New Testament" and the Greek of an Athens newspaper. The unity of the Greek language, seen both in the Koine and its modern expression, is recognized by many Bible scholars. A basic knowledge of Bible Greek, as contained in "New Testament" Greek interlinears can give the reader a better grasp of the precious "pearls" found in God’s written Word of truth.
READER VIEWS
"Before I took on the review of this book I could honestly say "it's Greek to me" and mean that I didn't understand a thing… Poly changed my understanding through his book "Greek Grammar." As he points out in the foreword: yes, you can [learn Greek], if the teaching is made uncomplicated and enjoyable.
Poly un-complicates the language through illustrations, association, and exercise.…
This large print format book is easy to read and gives clear understanding of the basics of the Greek language…"

WRITER’S DIGEST
"Greek Grammar: You Can Learn Bible Greek provides clear and concise instruction for the lay person as to how additional knowledge can be obtained from going back to the Greek words of the Bible. The pages contain pertinent illustrations and plenty of white space, which helps to allay an attitude of ‘I’ll never be able to learn Greek.’ Poly begins simply and provides hints and suggestions for learning the Greek alphabet. For the average Bible reader who would like to be able to explore the Greek words and the multiple meanings they contain, this book is an excellent place to begin. Many current Bible studies make reference to the original Greek word, and this book will equip the reader to find those ‘pearls’ within the original Scriptures for themselves."

THE MIDWEST BOOK REVIEW
"Greek Grammar: You Can Learn Bible Greek is a straightforward, self-teaching resource created and written by minister and Bible educator John Poly. Presented in large-print for assimilation without eye-strain, Greek Grammar offers black-and-white illustrations, association tools, and linguistic exercises (including explicitly detailed sample translations of Greek into English) to drill the reader with basic instruction. A superb grammar book for all students of the Greek language, Greek Grammar is an excellent guide to Koine, or Common Greek, especially recommended for non-specialist readers seeking to better understand the Greek text of the Christian Scriptures."

Polykarpos Publishing: Learning Path vs. Learning Curve
We've all thought "I'd love to understand another language, but the learning curve is so steep, I just don't have time." If only there was a better way, a way to to learn without making an enourmous commitment of time and resources.
Can language be learned through the use of clear illustrations and simple mnemonics, using what we already know as a foundation to accelerate the process?! This idea is the catalyst that inspired John Poly to write the book "You Can Learn Bible Greek". As the President of Polykarpos Publishing, it is John's earnest hope that his work will continue to make it possible for many more to come to an accurate knowledge of Bible truth through the use of the book "You Can Learn Bible Greek" and others yet to come.
