Satisfied Users:
"I found Greek Behind the Prof's Back to be an open door for me
by which Greek was finally made accessible. I learned how to read Greek and translate it for myself, as well as gaining
the confidence that we have a reliable English version of the Bible. I have also found that the more technical commentaries
are now usable tools as I prepare for teaching and preaching.
As a 'mid-lifer' with a great deal of unused 'grey
matter,' the particular approach your book takes enabled me to memorize and deal with the language at a pace I could grasp.
I wasn't burdened by the enormous task of rote memory each and every lesson. I was able to just concentrate on how
the language 'worked.' I learned the difference between the parts of speech, how they were related, and how they translated
into English. I can recommend the book to anyone wanting a basic knowledge of Greek, anyone intending to enter seminary
for further study of the language, or to the layperson who longs to gain new insights into what the Lord has to say to us."
-- Craig Smith, Associate Pastor, Family Life Bible Church, Conway, Arkansas
"Greek Behind the Prof's Back is a must for any student who desires to learn Greek, or for any pastor
or professor who simply needs a refresher course. Dr. Bechtle has without a doubt written the most user-friendly Greek
grammar on the market. I have used it for over 25 years, first as a student and now as a professor. His simple
and concise structure, combined with his ability to let the Greek text teach the student in every lesson, is its greatest
asset."
-- David Brewer, doctoral candidate, missionary, and Greek
professor in Toronto, Canada
