The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs: An Advanced Greek Reader (Jewish Texts Greek Readers)

Increasingly, researchers of Scripture understand the indispensable value of Intertestamental Jewish texts. Since many of these texts were composed in and/or translated and transmitted in Greek, the Jewish Texts Greek Readers (JTGR) series provides a broad sampling of these Jewish texts from the Hellenistic era. The JTGR are advanced Greek readers (Tier 5) in GlossaHouse’s AGROS series. This particular JTGR volume by K. R. Harriman contains an introduction and the Greek texts of the Jewish Pseudepigraphal works, The Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs. As an advanced Greek reader, Harriman has prepared footnotes with glosses for Greek words occurring less than thirteen times in the Greek New Testament. Additionally, readers will find translation helps (TH) and morphological helps (MH) for difficult grammatical forms. Wright also has provided a full translation of these texts. Finally, included for reference is a gloss lexicon of Greek words occurring thirteen times or more in the New Testament. Read more
