New Book from Dr. Fred Long, Professor of New Testament

Dr. Fred Long, Professor of New Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary, and Dr. Michael Halcomb, graduate of Asbury Seminary, have co-authored a new illustrated resources for studying the Greek narrative of Mark’s Gospel.

The GlossaHouse Illustrated Greek-English New Testament (GIGENT) is an innovative resource that will allow readers of Greek to have a more embodied and engaging experience with the Greek New Testament. This volume on Mark’s Gospel, which embeds Greek narrative, monologue, and dialogue within colorful illustrations, is truly the first of its kind. The ability to pair the Greek text with artistic renderings is of great value. This allows the text to be contextualized (and remembered) in a way that words standing on the page alone simply cannot do. The images can also assist readers in figuring out the immediate context of a verse or passage. Along with the Greek text, an English translation is conveniently located at the bottom of each page. This translation also allows readers, in the instance that they cannot recognize a word, to quickly glance down to the foot of the page to receive a gloss or translation help.
