The GlossaHouse Illustrated Greek-English New Testament (GIGENT) is an innovative resource that will allow readers of Greek to have a more embodied and engaging experience with the Greek New Testament. This volume, which embeds Greek narrative, monologue, and dialogue within colorful illustrations, is truly the first of its kind. The ability to pair the Greek text with artistic renderings is of great value. This allows the text to be contextualized (and remembered) in a way that words standing on the page alone simply cannot do. The images can also assist readers in figuring out the immediate context of a verse or passage. Along with the Greek text, an English translation is conveniently located at the bottom of each page. This translation also allows readers, in the instance that they cannot recognize a word, to quickly glance down to the foot of the page to receive a gloss or translation help. GlossaHouse hopes that the GIGENT will create a more exciting and enjoyable reading experience for students of Greek. Other volumes in this series are underway and GlossaHouse hopes to eventually produce the entire New Testament in this format.
