Unexpected Generosity

Shortly after I accepted the invitation to teach this fall at the Mekane Yesus Seminary, a colleague there asked if I could raise money and bring ten new Greek New Testaments for the first class of PhD students. Resources for them are limited and sourcing these books is challenge. My desire was to get for them the premier research edition, the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece 28. I sent emails to about thirty colleagues, friends, and former students. Within a week, the request was fully subscribed, and more. The first ten copies are on their way!
