Method: Greek Translation - TheWord Tutorial

Class Objective: This page will teach you how to set up theWord to study the Bible using two Greek Bible versions, two non-Greek Bible versions, Strong’s Dictionary, and Robinson’s Morphology Codes.

In this method, I want to show you how I set up my theWord windows to translate or study the original Greek language. Putting aside all the discussion about Bible manuscripts, I just want to look at a passage in the KJV, in a Greek Bible, and in Spanish (I am a missionary in Mexico). As such I am comparing 2 non-Greek versions with two Greek versions.

Brown The Devil's Mission of Amusement 7 page article from 1889. Hollywood in the church and her ministries. Brown was a student of C.H Spurgeon.
Excerpts:
Different days demand their own special testimony. The watchman who would be faithful to his Lord and to the city of his God needs to carefully note the signs of the times and to emphasize his witness accordingly. Concerning the testimony needed now, there can be little if any doubt. An evil is in the professed camp of the Lord, that is so gross, so brazen in its impudence, that the most shortsighted of spiritual men can hardly fail to notice it.... Amusement for the people is the leading article advertised by each... until the hideous fact has been proved up to the hilt, that "amusement" is ousting "the preaching of the Gospel" as the great attraction... The Concert is fast becoming as much a recognized part of church life as the Prayer Meeting; and it is already, in most places, far better attended.

"Providing recreation for the people" will soon be looked upon as a necessary part of Christian work, and as binding upon the Church of God, as though it were a Divine command, unless some strong voices are raised which will make themselves heard.

So my window layout is the following:

: Layout: Greek-English Bible Comparison

Notice that this is simply a layout (which can be saved and later called up to put the Bibles/book modules in these positions, see Layout Setups for theWord).

Next notice that I am using the “Compare Bible Versions” feature of theWord.

A few comments. First we have the Strong’s Dictionary (in the basic install package of TW) and Robinson Morphology Codes dictionaries loaded into theWord so we can see the Morphology and Strong’s Dictionary codes. (To toggle these features on in your Bible window, click in the Bible window, then CTRL+M for toggling Morphological codes on/off, and CTRL+S for toggling the Strong’s dictionary numbers on and off. Click on greek or blue codes to load in a BookView window, or mouseover to see them.)

Enjoy! :)
