This is the first volume of a two-volume set dedicated to koine. The second volume is a study of koine syntax. The historical presentation allows the study of patristic sources together with the Greek Scriptures. 

Rev. Silviu N. Bunta is currently Associate Professor of Scripture at the University of Dayton in Ohio, USA. He has taught koine Greek in Romania and in the United States of America for more than twenty years, at both introductory and advanced levels.
