«Un libro divertido, perspicaz y muy necesario que cuenta una historia que hacía falta.» -- Celeste Ng, autora del bestseller del New York Times Little Fires Everywhere Liliana Cruz, una joven latina de primera generación, quiere encajar a toda costa en su nueva escuela, ubicada en un exclusivo vecindario de Boston. ¿Tendrá que cambiar su identidad, su nombre o hablar diferente para ser aceptada? Tratando de encontrar respuestas, choca con el muro que su madre ha levantado en casa desde que su padre se fue... otra vez; con el muro que separa a su diverso vecindario de su no tan diversa escuela y con la tensión racial que crece entre sus compañeros. En el camino, Liliana descubre unos cuantos secretos familiares. Además, aprende que un muro no siempre es una barrera. También puede ser una plataforma para decir su verdad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION First-generation American LatinX Liliana Cruz does what it takes to fit in at her new nearly all-white school. But when family secrets spill out and racism at school ramps up, she must decide what she believes in and take a stand. Liliana Cruz is a hitting a wall--or rather, walls. There's the wall her mom has put up ever since Liliana's dad left--again. There's the wall that delineates Liliana's diverse inner-city Boston neighborhood from Westburg, the wealthy--and white--suburban high school she's just been accepted into. And there's the wall Liliana creates within herself, because to survive at Westburg, she can't just lighten up, she has to whiten up. So what if she changes her name? So what if she changes the way she talks? So what if she's seeing her neighborhood in a different way? But then light is shed on some hard truths: It isn't that her father doesn't want to come home--he can't...and her whole family is in jeopardy. And when racial tensions at school reach a fever pitch, the walls that divide feel insurmountable. But a wall isn't always a barrier. It can be a foundation for something better. And Liliana must choose: Use this foundation as a platform to speak her truth, or risk crumbling under its weight.Shipping Notes

An Exceptional Resource.
Format: Hardcover
I learned Greek and Hebrew in my graduate studies and anyone who has done that knows the great joy it is to be able to read the original languages of scripture. With the footnotes, though, getting through the text becomes much easier than if you simply have an NA28 or BHS. To echo what other reviewers have said, I also think that the new binding is a big plus over the previous edition - the book is so large that with a leather or trutone binding it can be a bit cumbersome. With the cloth over board, it fits well in your hands, feels more durable, and in my view is an improvement. However, one might say that calling it a "second edition" was not really necessary since the actual text is essentially the same as the previous - just the binding and the material used for the pages is different (as far as I can tell). The font is a good size as well. Any bigger and the book really would have been exceptionally large. But any smaller and it would be too hard to read. So I feel like they struck a good balance here.
One thing that they could have done better in making this was include the BHQ texts of the Hebrew books that have already been released as of 2020 (Ruth, Proverbs, Deuteronomy, the 12 Minor Prophets, Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Lamentations, Esther, Judges, and Ezra-Nehemiah) rather than the BHS that was in the previous edition. All of those BHQ texts had been released as of the time that this was being produced, so they could have easily updated these books and made it a true "second edition" with some significant updates that have come from recent years of scholarship on these books. All of the BHQ Old Testament will probably not be out until 2030 or so, but those particular books have been available for a while. I assume that there was a reason for this, and perhaps Zondervan was not allowed to use the BHQ texts in this volume since the BHQ texts are so new, but that is really the only area for improvement that I can think of.
It would be a great addition to anyone's library who has at least two semesters of the languages.

Great resource for keeping up biblical language skills
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
I am excited to have purchased this book. I graduated from seminary over a decade ago, and I have definitely lost a lot of my proficiency with Greek and Hebrew. I have been looking for something to help get back into the flow of things, and this just might be it.
The book contains both the Hebrew and Greek scriptures, which makes it several inches thick. On the plus side, the whole Bible is there in one book. However, it's not as portable as I'd like it to be. But that is the only downside I've discovered so far.
The pages and hard over are of really good quality--they just feel good in your hands. The Hebrew and Greek fonts used are very readable, better than my critical editions. Some other reviewers have commented negatively on the yellow paper, but it hasn't been an issue with me. (Your results may vary.)
The text itself has footnotes with quick definitions for all infrequent words (occurring <100x for Hebrew, <30x for Greek), so you don't have to look up that one word in the passage that, as it turns out, is a hapax legomenon or something. Each Testament also has a short lexicon with quick definitions for every word not defined in the footnotes. So in theory you should be able to look up any word quickly and easily just with this book. As an added bonus, infrequently occurring names in the Hebrew Bible are indicated in a light grey font, so again, you can quickly see that it's a name instead of getting frustrated trying to translate it as a regular noun.
One word about usage: This is not an "academic" book per se. That is, you're not going to be able to do detailed word studies or compare manuscript variants with this book. Even the definitions are just quick glosses, meant to get you down the road, not to provide technical etymological information. The purpose of this book is to help you read and familiarize yourself with the original-language text, or, like me, to keep your language skills sharp. And I believe that it will do this well.

An Great Upgrade from the Previous Edition, but a bit yellow
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
The Zondervan Greek/Hebrew Reader's has been a classic for students of biblical languages, who desire a full biblical text (WLC for OT/Eclectic text (NIV) for NT) with the helps and assist of a Reader's edition. The first edition (black, bonded leather) has been a mainstay for a number of years. This new release (second edition) updates a few things from the previous edition.
The second edition comes in a cloth-bound hardcover, which is an upgrade in my opinion from the previous editions bonded leather cover. The cover provides structure to the updated and improved binding. The fonts have been updated across the board, they are bolder and easier to read. This editions brings a lot of great updates and improvements on the first edition.
Unfortunately, the glosses provided at the bottom of each page are organized in paragraph form, rather than in columns (UBS5), which makes it a bit difficult to find the footnote number and word you're searching for.
Another big change is the paper color. The first edition had a bright white paper, the second edition is a deep creamy yellow paper. While I'm a fan of how readable this edition is (due to font changes), I feel the paper is way too yellow than it should be. (check pics see the difference).
All in all, if you can deal with the yellow paper, this is a fantastic edition to have for reading in the biblical languages. **bible graciously provided by Zondervan for an honest review

Very nice
Format: Hardcover
They greatly improved the font (ie. a kappa looks like a kappa) and the yellowish pages are easier on the eyes. I really like it.
