Answering Your Questions about the New Hebrew & Greek Word Study Videos
Here are my answers to a few questions that have come in about the Hebrew & Greek word study videos.
"Will these videos run on Macs? I don't have a PC."
These videos will work on any Mac or PC with the Flash viewer installed - and most PCs purchased in the past 4 years have that. If you don't, it's a free download to get it.
"I can only get a dialup connection to the Internet. Will these videos work for me?"
They will run, but you will need to be patient. We have tried to set things up so that dialup users can still benefit from the videos. The instruction is broken up into a series of shorter videos to make it faster to load each one. You can begin watching before it's completely downloaded. If you'd like to test it out, go here for a 4 minute sample:

Those should give you a good feel for how well it will work for you.
Also, a number of people have told me that they don't have a high-speed connection at home, but they go to their local library or coffee shop to get fast Internet connections.
"Will these training videos be available on CD or DVD?"
I hope to make them available on CD later on, but for right now they will only available online.
"What software will you use?"
The videos demonstrate how to use The Blue Letter Bible online software to do basic Hebrew & Greek word studies. This is wonderful software, with loads of features. And it's free to use.
You'll get a very fast start with these videos, because I'm going to steer you through the complicated interface and show you exactly what you need to do. (I used to just tell people that they should go to the software and use it - but most of them floundered around because they needed someone to take them by the hand.)
If you prefer other software, the principles of what I'm teaching will readily apply to other computer software. In fact, in one of the videos I give you my recommendations on other software that you might want to check out - both free and not-free.
"What's the price going to be?"
The initial price will be $20. You'll get immediate access to the Hebrew & Greek word study videos, plus about a half-hour of bonus videos on more ways to get value from The Blue Letter Bible, plus some surprise videos to come (I don't want to spoil the fun now.)
"Will you be offering a more advanced course? I'd be interested in that, since I already feel comfortable with basic word study."
I hope to in the future. It's my desire to team up with someone with extensive and specific Hebrew and Greek expertise in order to bring that to teachers.
Thanks for the questions! Let me know if you have others.
