Ἑλληνική
Koine Greek
Meet Jacob, Lydia, Simon and Martha, and read your way into the language of the New Testament.
עִבְרִית
Biblical Hebrew
Begin by ear, learn the letters and vowel points, and climb toward reading the Hebrew Bible.
Illustrated stories
Every chapter is a story you can follow from the pictures — no translation, no glossary, no drills.
Read aloud to you
Recorded audio for the words and the narrative, so you hear the language before you have to produce it.
It remembers you
Words you meet come back on a schedule, and the map shows exactly where you left off.
Why the original languages
The Scriptures, in the words God gave them
Translation is a gift — but there is nothing like reading Moses and John in their own words. Every course, book, and class we make exists so that anyone, anywhere, can open the Hebrew Bible and the Greek New Testament and understand.
בְּרֵאשִׁ֖ית בָּרָ֣א אֱלֹהִ֑ים אֵ֥ת הַשָּׁמַ֖יִם וְאֵ֥ת הָאָֽרֶץ׃

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος, καὶ ὁ λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν θεόν, καὶ θεὸς ἦν ὁ λόγος.

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

How we teach
Learned like a language, not a puzzle
Our teaching stands on comprehensible input: you acquire Hebrew and Greek by understanding messages — stories, pictures, conversation — not by memorizing paradigms first.
Stories before charts
Illustrated narratives carry you into the language, so grammar arrives as a friend rather than a gatekeeper.
Spoken from day one
You speak, listen, read, and write from the first lesson — the way every language you know entered your mind.
Joy sustains learning
Beautiful books and gentle pacing protect the one thing every learner needs most: the desire to continue.
Lingua Deo Gloria Publishing
Books that teach by beauty
Visual readers, storybooks, and children's books in Hebrew and Greek — every page illustrated, every book free to read.
Free live classes
Learn together, taught in the language
Twelve-week online cohorts, one evening a week, conducted primarily in Hebrew or Greek. Small classes, real conversation, homework that fits around your life — and no cost, ever.
Applications are open for upcoming cohorts
Watch and listen
Keep learning between lessons
Free video lessons on YouTube and unhurried conversations on the podcast — companions for your commute, your kitchen, your quiet hours.
Co-laboring
Everything we make is free. You're the reason.
We view your support not merely as a donation, but as co-laboring with us in the advance of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Give only if you can do so joyfully and willingly — and if you can, know that every gift funds new readers, new curricula, and free classes for students around the world.
