The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear (GENTI) is produced by Christian Publishing House, Cambridge, Ohio. We seek to make a notable addition to the Greek-English Interlinear family by providing a text of the Greek New Testament that is based on the most recent research. It is grounded in the earliest manuscript witnesses, with the objective of ascertaining the original wording of the original texts.

Yes, it would be the greatest discovery of all time if we found the actual original five books that were penned by Moses himself, Genesis through Deuteronomy. However, first, there would be no way of establishing that they were the originals. Second, truth be told, we do not need the originals. We do not need those original documents. What is so important about the documents? Nothing, it is the content of the original documents that we are after. And truly miraculously, we have more copies than needed to do just that. We do not need miraculous preservation because we have miraculous restoration. It is our

Our goal is to produce a Greek New Testament critical text that is a 99.99% reflection of the content that was in those ancient original manuscripts. Even after achieving such a goal, we will continue to improve upon The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear (GENTI).

Christian Publishing House is also producing The Hebrew-English Old Testament Interlinear (HEOTI) and the Updated American Standard Version as well. Our primary purpose is to give the Bible readers what God said by way of his human authors, not what a translator thinks God meant in its place. Our primary goal is to be accurate and faithful to the original text. The meaning of a word is the responsibility of the interpreter (i.e., reader), not the translator.

The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear (GENTI) exists to help readers examine the New Testament more closely by placing the Greek text and an English rendering together in a clear, study-friendly format. The New Testament was written in Koine Greek, the common language of the first-century Mediterranean world. Because most Bible readers do not read Greek fluently, an interlinear provides a valuable bridge between the original-language text and an accurate English understanding. It allows the reader to see the Greek words, their basic English equivalents, and the structure of the passage more directly than a standard English translation alone can provide. The purpose of GENTI is not to replace careful translation, Greek grammar, or sound exegesis, but to help the reader observe the inspired wording of the Christian Greek Scriptures with greater precision.

An interlinear New Testament is especially useful because every translation involves decisions. Greek words do not always match English words in a one-to-one manner. Greek verbs communicate tense-form, aspect, voice, mood, person, and number. Greek nouns use case, number, and gender. Articles, prepositions, conjunctions, infinitives, participles, and word order all contribute to the meaning of a passage. A regular English Bible often smooths these features into natural English, which is necessary for readability. However, that smoothing can sometimes hide important details. GENTI helps the reader slow down and see more of what stands beneath the English text. It shows where the Greek wording is compact, where a phrase is emphatic, where a clause is dependent, where a word is repeated, and where the structure of the sentence carries interpretive weight.

The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear is valuable for students, teachers, apologists, translators, and serious readers who want to understand Scripture according to the Historical-Grammatical method. This method requires attention to the words, grammar, context, and historical setting intended by the inspired writer. GENTI supports that work by keeping the reader close to the Greek text. It helps guard against careless interpretation, doctrinal assumptions, and the habit of building conclusions from English wording alone. When examining passages about faith, repentance, Christ’s sacrifice, salvation, resurrection, the congregation, the Holy Spirit, the holy ones, Hades, Gehenna, soul, spirit, and eternal life, the reader benefits from seeing how the Greek terms are actually used in context.

GENTI also helps readers compare Bible translations more responsibly. When English versions differ, the interlinear can help show whether the difference comes from word meaning, grammar, syntax, textual basis, translation philosophy, or interpretation. Some translations are more literal and preserve the structure of the Greek more closely. Others are freer and aim for readability, sometimes at the cost of precision. An interlinear helps the reader identify when a translation has accurately represented the Greek and when it has added interpretation that may not be required by the text. This is especially important in doctrinally significant passages where religious tradition has influenced how many readers understand key terms.

The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear must also be used with proper discipline. A Greek gloss is not always the full meaning of a word in every context. One English word placed under a Greek word may help the reader begin, but it does not settle interpretation by itself. Words receive their precise meaning from context, grammar, usage, and the argument of the passage. A responsible reader must not use an interlinear to create private definitions, force one gloss into every occurrence, or overturn sound translation principles. GENTI is a tool for observation, comparison, and careful study. It serves the inspired text; it does not replace the need for accurate grammar, lexical study, textual awareness, and full-context exegesis.

The value of GENTI is that it brings the reader closer to the wording of the New Testament without requiring him to become a professional Greek scholar before he can benefit from the original language. It gives readers direct exposure to the language used by Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Peter, James, Jude, and the writer of Hebrews. It helps students see repeated terms, sentence patterns, verbal forms, and the structure of apostolic argumentation. It can sharpen preaching, teaching, apologetics, personal study, and doctrinal research by encouraging careful attention to what the text actually says.

The Greek-English New Testament Interlinear therefore belongs among the essential tools for serious New Testament study. It strengthens confidence in Scripture by showing that Christian doctrine must be grounded in the inspired wording of the text, not in tradition, emotional impressions, or later theological systems. Used properly, GENTI helps readers examine the Greek New Testament with greater accuracy, compare translations more intelligently, and understand the message of Scripture according to the words Jehovah caused to be written through His inspired servants.
