Overcome the most challenging aspect of New Testament Greek–Vocabulary
Designed to take you beyond the classroom
Traditional classroom training requires that you learn by occurrence. But occurrence gets harder and less rewarding as you progress. The result is that most people give up learning vocabulary. When you give up learning vocabulary, you end up with no path to master the Greek New Testament.
If you want to keep learning Greek when you leave the classroom, you’ll want a system that will work in the classroom and beyond. Master New Testament Greek is that system.
Master New Testament Greek is a guide to the Greek New Testament
What the experts say
What's the difference?
The main approaches to vocabulary acquisition are designed for the classroom, but don’t provide a systematic approach to help you beyond the second year (though some stretch it to a third year). Master New Testament Greek helps you to master the classroom requirements, and then provides an efficient path to fluency when you’re done.
Most approaches to vocabulary give you just a book. I think we can do better than that.

Leading you from the classroom to fluent reading
It’s is not just about passing a test. Master New Testament Greek is about leading you on a journey to master the entire Greek New Testament.
Start where you are
Master New Testament Greek provides the vocabulary in 8 different structures. Work by occurrence, or chapter by chapter. Exclude proper nouns and/or Hapax legomena.
Start by learning words that occur 20x or more. Then finish book by book.
Graded Reader
Master New Testament Greek arranges books from easy to hard, taking into account the syntactical difficulty and lexical complexity of each New Testament book.
Learn the words of each book, and then simply read it.
Keep Moving
Starting with shorter, easier books, keeps you moving. If you memorize 25 words each week, you'll learn to read a new book of the New Testament every 2 months on average.
Book by book, you master the entire New Testament.

Crafted for students
I discovered the frustration of trying to learn to read the Greek New Testament using occurrence based methods. So I created Master New Testament Greek as a more efficient and rewarding way to learn to read the entire Greek New Testament.
By creating and using this system, I learned to read every word of the Greek New Testament fluently in less than 4 years, while working on my Master’s and Doctoral degrees.
Approved by professors
Now that student, Darryl Burling, is ready to share that method with you. Learning vocabulary is probably the greatest obstacle to fluently reading the NT in its original language. I heartily recommend Darryl’s method and encourage you to use it!

What do customers say?
I am actually reading my Greek NT!
"Now that I am started with this method I am motivated by the sheer joy of comprehending the New Testament as I read from my Greek Bible. I wish I would have had this tool when I had completed my first Greek course over 30 years ago! Every seminary student (along with busy pastors) should take advantage of Master New Testament Greek. Darryl Burling has done us all a great favor!
The best post-seminary Greek program
It is focused and specific. This is just what I needed.

Every day you have an opportunity to grow. Start today and acquire all the benefits of reading Greek. By consistently working through Master New Testament Greek, you will progress to fluency!
Unfortunately no. This is designed for students who have completed at least one year of Greek, to help them continue their learning until they have mastered the entire Greek New Testament.
However, the Mastery Membership includes a beginner course. Join the waitlist.
Not exactly. Master New Testament Greek is a systematic approach to master the Greek New Testament. This means it starts with the easier books to read (1 John) and progresses to the harder books (Luke/Acts).
If you jump into Master New Testament Greek at (for example) 1 Peter, there will be words in 1 Peter that will be missing because Master New Testament Greek assumes you learned those in the books that come before it.
Master New Testament Greek will certainly lead you through 1 Peter (and every other New Testament book), but it does so in a carefully crafted order. This approach has several benefits:
- It reduces the number of words to learn in more difficult books when you come to them
- It smooths out the number of words to learn in each book overall
- It keeps you moving as quickly as possible through books of the NT
- Progressing through books quickly rewards your hard work and keeps you motivated
Not everybody wants to learn every word (though I strongly recommend you do – read why) and not everybody wants the words broken down by occurrence. So with Master New Testament Greek you get choices. Learn by chapter or occurrence. Learn all the words, or exclude proper nouns and/or hapax legomena.
Here are the vocabulary acquisition choices you’ll find for each book in Master New Testament Greek.
- Vocab ordered by Chapter
- All words
- Without proper nouns
- Without hapax legomena
- Without proper nouns and hapax legomena
- Vocab ordered by Occurrence
- All words
- Without proper nouns
- Without hapax legomena
- Without proper nouns and hapax legomena
Here’s an example of the flexibility this offers: Start by learning all words occurring 20x or more, then start again and work by chapter to learn all remaining words (and optionally exclude proper nouns and/or hapax legomena).
Achieve your goal faster.
No. You’re buying a systematic approach, which recommends a specific app (an industrial grade flashcards app suited to the task) and provides you with everything you need including all the flashcards delivered as Excel files, so you can use them in a Flashcards app. I will also provide you with video tutorials for setting it up with Master New Testament Greek.
Finally, you’ll also get help with planning, and a 3-month plan you can use out of the box or as a template.
This is more like a vocabulary book on steroids.
First, Master New Testament Greek connects vocabulary to specific books of the Bible so you can memorize the words, then read that book without needing a lexicon. You master vocabulary, and then you master the New Testament book in which that vocabulary is found.
Second, Master New Testament Greek includes all the flashcards, making it easy to import them into your Flashcards app.
Here are some other advantages. Master New Testament Greek:
- is designed to enable you to read the entire Greek New Testament
- includes all the vocabulary of the Greek New Testament
- includes all vocabulary in Excel files for easy importing into your flashcards app
- includes full instructions for using Flashcards Deluxe
- includes 8 vocabulary acquisition options
- includes a guide to setting and achieving your goal
- includes a email mini-course to get you up and running quickly
- includes free updates!
In a sense it combines vocabulary with a New Testament Greek reader. Memorize. Read. Master.
