I recorded him reciting Phil. 2:1-11 in Greek and added subtitles so you can follow along. Might be something you'd enjoy viewing and sharing with others. <br /><br />http://jpnee.blogspot.com/2012/12/raising-bar-in-scripture-memory.html<br /><br />Also, here is a link to purchase the combined LXX(OT)/NA(NT).<br /><br />http://www.amazon.com/Biblia-Hebraica-Stuttgartensia-Testament-Edition/dp/3438052504<br /><br />Blessings,TWHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456175711026301126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3524870071579105359.post-21802388308831952042012-12-11T19:53:19.540-08:002012-12-11T19:53:19.540-08:00Gabe:

Nothing (in my experience) cements a vocab/morphology item faster and more permanently than using it in context or understanding it in context.<br /><br />Also 100% agreement about the listening. That by itself has catapulted my Hebrew forward quite a ways.<br /><br />Elena, thanks for the distinction between methods that work to compel learning and methods that work to facilitate motivated learning.

Zondervan publishes a great "Readings in the Greek New Testament" CD set that I've enjoyed.<br /><br />I'd love to talk with you and Andrew about Greek sometime.
