Helpful tool with a contemporary application,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Koine Greek New Testament (Ancient Greek and English Edition) (Audio CD)
Using this set of CD audio recordings of the NT in koine Greek, Zhodiates uses modern Greek pronunciations. I did a comparison in some passages of the GNT with the NA27th edition of the ancient Greek and the Modern Greek NT. It seems that about 70% of the words are spelled identically. So if you learn using the modern Greek pronunciation as he gives it in these recordings, then you are learning how to pronounce some words in modern Greek. For a Christian who would like to go to Greece someday or who relates to Greeks in restaurants or in other settings, this is an invaluable benefit. For that reason alone, it is worth getting this tool.I found that with my GNT open and this CD on, it is easy to mimic. It can be difficult to find your place on the cd, unless your player allows you to move to specific points in the cd. I found a blank CD in the middle of my Romans chapters, well after I had purchased this package. The manufacturer handled me swiftly and without a hassle. I was VERY impressed with how they stand behind their product. I have absolutely loved this product. If you have the funds to spend on this I would highly recommend it.

Important Supplement for Students of Greek.,
By
This review is from: Koine Greek New Testament (Ancient Greek and English Edition) (Audio CD)
The Greek New Testament is recorded on 22 CD's. Mr. Zodhiates reads each verse in a slow deliberate manner, quite useful for the student of Greek.Mr. Zodhiates uses the Modern Greek pronunciation, which does diverge from the Koine Greek. I didn't find this to be a problem. My goal as a student is to pronounce the words so that they may be understood, and Zodhiates makes a strong case for using Modern Greek in reading the New Testament. At less than $70, this is a very good addition to your Greek Library.

Audio Koine Greek New Testament CD by Spiros Zodhiates,
This review is from: Koine Greek New Testament (Ancient Greek and English Edition) (Audio CD)
The CDS are well organized with the one fault of the sections not being described orally. The chapter is given but not the book!This may not be a problem when you use the cds direct, but is when you use, as I do, the audio files with an Ipod. The diction is clear and I imagine distinguishable to a non greek speaker. Any non-modern greek speaking listener would need to learn the modern pronouciation first, as western academicly contrived 'classic' greek is laughably un-authentic. I find them very useful.
