:One of the greatest coaches in football, Vince Lombardi, constantly stressed the importance of the fundamentals. He told his team, "Gentlemen, this is a football". You can't be excellent at anything, if you first don't master the fundamentals. There are no shortcuts to excellence. I think you know this already. Harvard University doesn't offer an associates degree in law. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]])

== How long does it take to learn New Testament Greek? ==
"He had earned a,PhD in Greek from Edinburgh. When we would go to a Bible study class together, the Bible he preferred to use was greek, and he would translate on the fly. It was simply his favorite language to read it in.
I started a class in Greek from him. He told us that if we could give him 2 hours of work a day, including the one evening a week class, that Greek would also be our favorite language for reading the New Testament in 2 years.
2 years, 2 hours per day, 7 days a week. And that is for comfort, not total mastery.
After a couple months, I realized I did not have 14 hours per week to give him, and had to admit defeat. But I think his time line was probably reasonable."[https://www.quora.com/How-long-does-it-take-to-learn-biblical-Greek] [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] ([[User talk:Conservative|talk]])
