I’m reading Rob Plummer’s excellent new hermeneutics primer, and I’m planning to post a full review after I’m finished. But I just came across a line that was so good that I had to share it now. Every preacher needs to hear this one:

I just want to point out that I used to be Dr. Plummers neighbor!
And now I will be purchasing his book!
Spencer Haygood
Outstanding! You better believe I’ll be using that in my classes. Thanks!

That is definitely quotable. I like Bob, because I think he might be the only NT guy I’ve met who is shorter than me!
Matthew Staton
That’s a great visual for an important truth.

When I use to watch his Greek grammar videos my wife would here me laughing in my study and thought I had taken a break to watch The Office. I hope I can get this on Kindle.

Great line. I’m so grateful to have enjoyed his biblical wisdom and sense of humor in college as a prof.
One of my favorite college memories is the day my roommate and I skipped Greek to catch up on some work we’d neglected for another class, only to have Dr. Plummer call our room on speakerphone live in class. Priceless.

Dr. Plummer’s Greek class was the best D+ I’ve ever enjoyed making.
But, seriously, he has the kind of career I want. Teach at a college/master’s level and go on short-term mission trips in the summer.
