Description

The Greek Readers Lexicon gives you a convenient way to look up rare vocabulary verse-by-verse through the New Testament. Even the most competent readers of New Testament Greek do not know each and every word that appears in the New Testament by heart. You want to spend as much time reading the text, not looking up words in a lexicon. On the other hand, learning all words that occur more than 100 times in the New Testament is a straightforward task, even for a first-year student of Koine Greek. Likewise, however, you too want to read as much New Testament Greek as you can, without being distracted by looking up every other word in a lexicon. This app helps you to do that — spend time reading the New Testament in Greek — wherever you are on the vocabulary-learning scale. Select the passage of Scripture that youre looking at, and the vocabulary threshold (from words that occur once in the entire NT to those that occur 100 times), and a verse-by-verse lexicon is generated for you. As you read each verse, definitions of rare words are right there with you. Quick gloss definitions of words in each verse are there at a glance, and more information for greater depth and insight is only a tap away. This app wont replace your Greek Bible — in fact, its designed to sit alongside it. What it will do is help you to spend more time in it, and, hopefully, encourage you to read it more. Extended lexical definitions are drawn from Thayer’s Greek Lexicon (public domain), and the glosses are derived from this source too. Requires iPhone OS 3.1 or greater.

Its a decent app for the person who is looking for an iPhone searchable Thayers lexicon with a few extra bells and whistles. Improvements are needed.... -scalable font -choice of colour for font (the light grey is hard for these old eyes of mine) -reverse search feature (so that you can look up a greek work ---either alphabetically or type and search (with lower case greek keyboard fonts) -ability to search larger areas instead of just 1 verse at a time- chapter or book settings would be nice didnt find any bugs so far... price is fair... Have a nice day !

Nice app

This app is great. You can go verse by verse thru the whole NT and look at the lexical analysis of the less common words. Very easy to use. Well worth it.

Excellent study tool! 99cents!

Ive had this app for a wee bit longer than 2 weeks and I havent encountered any bugs or problems so far. I love it. It uses Thayers Greek Lexicon for definitions and Nestle-Aland 27th edition (NA27) Greek NT for frequency data. Both are reliable sources. I highly recommend this for seminary students, pastors and any person who wants to learn Koine Greek and do an exegesis of the NT. Here are a few suggestions: 1) The app should allow the user to do a word search in Koine Gk or in English. 2) A split screen with an English Bible translation and this app. I dont always have a Bible with me and I have to constantly close this app and open up a bible app and then close the Bible app and relaunch this app and so forth.

Awesome

Great functionality, easy to use!

What a time saver!!

Crittyran · 15 years ago · v1.2

This is a super addition to my itouch. No more pulling out kubo and BAGD every time I want a general understanding of the word in question. Only $.99?? I would have paid lots more! Thank you for making this available and affordable.

Great for my exegesis class!

Thanks for making this affordable! Definitely worth more than $.99
