Sun, 30 Jan 2022 - 09min - 75 - #1 περὶ ἡμῶν αὐτῶν
χαίρετε, ὦ ἀκροαταί! Welcome to the first episode of our podcast in which we aim to practice speaking Ancient Greek. In this first episode we introduce ourselves and talk about what we hope to do with the podcast. To learn a language well we need a lot of listening input something which is lacking for Ancient Greek, so we hope that our efforts will be useful to others like ourselves who want to acquire a deeper understanding of the language. We aim to start with some simple dialogues and gradually work up to reading and paraphrasing original texts, so if you are just starting with Ancient Greek there is no better time to get listening!

1. πᾶσα τέχνη καὶ πᾶσα μέθοδος, ὁμοίως δὲ πρᾶξίς τε καὶ προαίρεσις, ἀγαθοῦ τινὸς ἐφίεσθαι δοκεῖ: διὸ καλῶς ἀπεφήναντο τἀγαθόν, οὗ πάντ᾽ ἐφίεται. πολλῶν δὲ πράξεων οὐσῶν καὶ τεχνῶν καὶ ἐπιστημῶν πολλὰ γίνεται καὶ τὰ τέλη: ἰατρικῆς μὲν γὰρ ὑγίεια, ναυπηγικῆς δὲ πλοῖον, στρατηγικῆς δὲ νίκη, οἰκονομικῆς δὲ πλοῦτος. ὅσαι δ᾽ εἰσὶ τῶν τοιούτων ὑπὸ μίαν τινὰ δύναμιν, καθάπερ ὑπὸ τὴν ἱππικὴν χαλινοποιικὴ καὶ ὅσαι ἄλλαι τῶν ἱππικῶν ὀργάνων εἰσίν, αὕτη δὲ καὶ πᾶσα πολεμικὴ πρᾶξις ὑπὸ τὴν στρατηγικήν, κατὰ τὸν αὐτὸν δὴ τρόπον ἄλλαι ὑφ᾽ ἑτέρας: ἐν ἁπάσαις δὲ τὰ τῶν ἀρχιτεκτονικῶν τέλη πάντων ἐστὶν αἱρετώτερα τῶν ὑπ᾽ αὐτά: τούτων γὰρ χάριν κἀκεῖνα διώκεται.
2. εἰ δή τι τέλος ἐστὶ τῶν πρακτῶν ὃ δι᾽ αὑτὸ βουλόμεθα, τἆλλα δὲ διὰ τοῦτο, καὶ μὴ πάντα δι᾽ ἕτερον αἱρούμεθα (πρόεισιγὰρ οὕτω γ᾽ εἰς ἄπειρον, ὥστ᾽ εἶναι κενὴν καὶ ματαίαν τὴν ὄρεξιν), δῆλον ὡς τοῦτ᾽ ἂν εἴη τἀγαθὸν καὶ τὸ ἄριστον. ἆρ᾽ οὖν καὶ πρὸς τὸν βίον ἡ γνῶσις αὐτοῦ μεγάλην ἔχει ῥοπήν, καὶ καθάπερ τοξόται σκοπὸν ἔχοντες μᾶλλον ἂν τυγχάνοιμεν τοῦ δέοντος; εἰ δ᾽ οὕτω, πειρατέον τύπῳ γε περιλαβεῖν αὐτὸ τί ποτ᾽ ἐστὶ καὶ τίνος τῶν ἐπιστημῶν ἢ δυνάμεων.
3. λέγωμεν δ᾽ ἀναλαβόντες, ἐπειδὴ πᾶσα γνῶσις καὶ προαίρεσις ἀγαθοῦ τινὸς ὀρέγεται, τί ἐστὶν οὗ λέγομεν τὴν πολιτικὴν ἐφίεσθαι καὶ τί τὸ πάντων ἀκρότατον τῶν πρακτῶν ἀγαθῶν. ὀνόματι μὲν οὖν σχεδὸν ὑπὸ τῶν πλείστων ὁμολογεῖται: τὴν γὰρ εὐδαιμονίαν καὶ οἱ πολλοὶ καὶ οἱ χαρίεντες λέγουσιν, τὸδ᾽ εὖ ζῆν καὶ τὸ εὖ πράττειν ταὐτὸν ὑπολαμβάνουσι τῷ εὐδαιμονεῖν: περὶ δὲ τῆς εὐδαιμονίας, τί ἐστιν, ἀμφισβητοῦσι καὶ οὐχ ὁμοίως οἱ πολλοὶ τοῖς σοφοῖς ἀποδιδόασιν. οἳ μὲν γὰρ τῶν ἐναργῶν τι καὶ φανερῶν, οἷον ἡδονὴν ἢ πλοῦτον ἢ τιμήν, ἄλλοι δ᾽ ἄλλο—πολλάκις δὲ καὶ ὁ αὐτὸς ἕτερον: νοσήσας μὲν γὰρ ὑγίειαν, πενόμενος δὲ πλοῦτον.
4. ἡμεῖς δὲ λέγωμεν ὅθεν παρεξέβημεν. τὸ γὰρ ἀγαθὸν καὶ τὴν εὐδαιμονίαν οὐκ ἀλόγως ἐοίκασιν ἐκ τῶν βίων ὑπολαμβάνειν οἱ μὲν πολλοὶ καὶ φορτικώτατοι τὴν ἡδονήν: διὸ καὶ τὸν βίον ἀγαπῶσι τὸν ἀπολαυστικόν. τρεῖς γάρ εἰσι μάλιστα οἱ προύχοντες, ὅ τε νῦν εἰρημένος καὶ ὁ πολιτικὸς καὶ τρίτος ὁ θεωρητικός. οἱ μὲν οὖν πολλοὶ παντελῶς ἀνδραποδώδεις φαίνονται βοσκημάτων βίον προαιρούμενοι, τυγχάνουσι δὲ λόγου διὰ τὸ πολλοὺς τῶν ἐν ταῖς ἐξουσίαις ὁμοιοπαθεῖν Σαρδαναπάλλῳ.

χαίρετε! Today we were going to read Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics, but we got sidetracked chatting about his school in Macedonia where Leandros visited, but it is all good practice to develop our speaking fluency. Have you been to Greece? Have you visited anywhere in Greece? Let us know which place is special for you.

Fri, 09 Jun 2023 - 09min - 54 - #50 περὶ τοῦ ἀκροάματος
χαίρετε! This week we are celebrating our 50th episode with a slightly different approach. We usually avoid "meta issues" preferring to just get on with the hard work of reading and interpreting the texts themselves rather than talking about things like methodology and pronunciation, but we took the opportunity to reflect a little on the podcast and language itself.
Here is the short passage recited (Nicomachean Ethics 1.8.9-10/ 1099a):
ὥσπερ δ᾽Ὀλθμπίασιν οὐκ οἱ κάλλιστοι καὶ ἰσχυρότατοι στεφανοῦνται ἀλλ᾽οἱ ἀγωνιζόμενοι (τούτων γάρ τινες νικῶσιν), οὕτω καὶ τῶν ἐν τῷ βίῳ καλῶν κἀγαθῶν οἱ πράττοντες ὀρθῶς ἐπήβολοι γίγνονται.

χαίρετε! Here is our latest episode continuing our run of episodes on Thucydides. This time we look into a short section (1.20-22), where he explains his methodology and how it differs from previous historians.
Here are some short passages that we quote, paraphrase and discuss:
οἱ γὰρ ἄνθρωποι τὰς ἀκοὰς τῶν προγεγενημένων, καὶ ἢν ἐπιχώρια σφίσιν ᾖ, ὁμοίως ἀβασανίστως παρ᾽ ἀλλήλων δέχονται.
οὕτως ἀταλαίπωρος τοῖς πολλοῖς ἡ ζήτησις τῆς ἀληθείας, καὶ ἐπὶ τὰ ἑτοῖμα μᾶλλον τρέπονται.
καὶ ἐς μὲν ἀκρόασιν ἴσως τὸ μὴ μυθῶδες αὐτῶν ἀτερπέστερον φανεῖται: ὅσοι δὲ βουλήσονται τῶν τε γενομένων τὸ σαφὲς σκοπεῖν καὶ τῶν μελλόντων ποτὲ αὖθις κατὰ τὸ ἀνθρώπινον τοιούτων καὶ παραπλησίων ἔσεσθαι, ὠφέλιμα κρίνειν αὐτὰ ἀρκούντως ἕξει. κτῆμά τε ἐς αἰεὶ μᾶλλον ἢ ἀγώνισμα ἐς τὸ παραχρῆμα ἀκούειν ξύγκειται.

Here is the text, which Josep recites at 1:55...
Ἀετὸς καὶ κάνθαρος.
Ἀετὸς λαγωὸν ἐδίωκεν. ὁ δὲ ἐν ἐρημίᾳ τῶν βοηθησόντων ὑπάρχων, ὅν μόνον ὁ καιρὸς παρέσχε, κάνθαρον ἰδών, τοῦτον ἱκέτευεν. ὁ δὲ παραθαρσύνας αὐτόν, ὡς ἐγγὺς ἐλθόντα τὸν ἀετὸν ἐθεάσατο, παρεκάλει μὴ ἀπάγειν αὐτοῦ τον ἱκέτην. κἀκεῖνος ὑπεριδὼν τὴν μικρότητα ἐν ὄψει τοῦ κανθάρου τὸν λαγωὸν κατεθοινήσατο. ὁ δὲ ἀπ' ἐκείνου μνησικακῶν διετέλει παρατηρούμενος τοῦ ἀετοῦ τὰς καλιὰς καί, εἴ ποτε ἐκεῖνος ἔτικτε, μετάρσιος αἰρόμενος ἐκύλιε τὰ ὠὰ καὶ κατέασσε, μέχρις οὗ πανταχόθεν ἐλαυνόμενος ὁ ἀετὸς ἐπὶ τὸν Δία κατέφυγεν ( ἔστι δὲ τοῦ θεοῦ ἱερὸς ὁ ὄρνις ) καὶ αὐτοῦ ἐδεήθη τόπον αὐτῷ πρὸς νεοττοποιίαν ἀσφαλῆ παρασχεῖν. τοῦ δὲ Διὸς ἐν τοῖς ἐαυτοῦ κόλποις τίκτειν ἐπιτρέψαντος αὐτῷ, ὁ κάνθαρος τοῦτου ἑωρακώς, κόπρου σφαῖραν ποιήσας ἀνέπτη καὶ γενόμενος κατὰ τοὺς τοῦ Διὸς κόλπους ἐνταῦθα καθῆκεν. ὁ δὲ Ζεὺς ἀποσείσασθαι τὴν κόπρον βουλόμενος, ὡς διανέστη ἔλαθεν τὰ ὠὰ ἀπορρίψας. ἀπ' ἐκείνου τέ φασι περὶ ὃν καιρὸν οἱ κάνθαροι γίνονται μὴ νεοττεύειν τοὺς ἀετούς.
Ὁ λόγος διδάσκει μηδενὸς καταφρονεῖν, λογιζομένους ὅτι οὐδεὶς οὕτως ἐστὶν ἀδύνατος ὡς προπηλακισθεὶς μὴ δύνασθαί ποτε ἑαυτὸν ἐκδικῆσαι

ΑΙΛΟΥΡΟΣ ΚΑΙ ΟΡΝΕΙΣ
αἴλουρος ἀκούσας ὅτι ἔν τινι ἐπαύλει ὄρνεις νοσοῦσι, σχηματίσας ἑαυτὸν εἰς ἰατρὸν καὶ τὰ τῆς ἐπιστήμης πρόσφορα ἀναλαβὼν ἐργαλεῖα παρεγένετο καὶ στὰς πρὸ τῆς ἐπαύλεως ἐπυνθάνετο αὐτῶν, πῶς ἔχοιεν. αἱ δὲ ὑποτυχοῦσαι· «καλῶς», ἔφασαν, «ἐὰν σὺ ἐντεῦθεν ἀπαλλαγῇς».
οὕτω καὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων οἱ πονηροὶ τοὺς φρονίμους οὐ λανθάνουσι, κἂν τὰ μάλιστα χρηστότητα ὑποκρίνωνται.

Fri, 02 Dec 2022 - 19min - 41 - #37 τῶν ἀγαθῶν καὶ κακῶν (Αἰσώπου α᾽)
χαίρετε! This week we are starting a series of three episodes on Aesop's fables. The first of these is on fable 1 from Chambry's collection:
Ἀγαθὰ καὶ κακά.
Ὑπὸ τῶν κακῶν τὰ ἀγαθὰ ἐδιώχθη ὡς ἀσθενῆ ὅντα: εἰς οὐρανὸν δὲ ἀνῆλθεν. Τὰ δὲ ἀγαθὰ ἠρώτησαν τὸν Δία πῶς εἶναι μετ'ἀνθρώπων. Ὁ δὲ εἶπεν <μὴ> μετ' ἀλλήλων πάντα, ἓν δὲ καθ' ἓν τοῖς ἀνθρώποις ἐπέρχεσθαι. Διὰ τοῦτο τὰ μὲν κακὰ συνεχῆ τοῖς ἀνθρώποις, ὡς πλησίον ὄντα, ἐπέρχεται, τὰ δὲ ἀγαθὰ βράδιον, ἐξ οὐρανοῦ κατιόντα.Ὅτι ἀγαθῶν μὲν οὐδεὶς ταχέως ἐπιτυγχάνει, ὑπὸ δὲ τῶν κακῶν ἕκαστος καθ' ἑκάστην πλήττεται.
http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica/chambry/1.htm
We also briefly discuss a short section from Aristotle's "On Virtues & Vices":
τριμεροῦς δὲ τῆς ψυχῆς λαμβανομένης κατὰ Πλάτωνα, τοῦ μὲν λογιστικοῦ ἀρετή ἐστιν ἡ φρόνησις, τοῦ δὲ θυμοειδοῦς ἥ τε πραότης καὶ ἡ ἀνδρεία, τοῦ δὲ ἐπιθυμητικοῦ ἥ τε σωφροσύνη καὶ ἡ ἐγκράτεια, ὅλης δὲ τῆς ψυχῆς ἥ τε δικαιοσύνη καὶ ἡ ἐλευθεριότης καὶ ἡ μεγαλοψυχία. κακία δ᾽ ἐστὶ τοῦ μὲν λογιστικοῦ ἡ ἀφροσύνη, τοῦ δὲ θυμοειδοῦς ἥ τε ὀργιλότης καὶ ἡ δειλία, τοῦ δὲ ἐπιθυμητικοῦ ἥ τε ἀκολασία καὶ ἡ ἀκράτεια, ὅλης δὲ τῆς ψυχῆς ἥ τε ἀδικία καὶ ἀνελευθεριότης καὶ μικροψυχία.

Hi everyone, now you can listen to us in our third episode on Pythagoras, speaking about what Herodotus, Plutarch and Diogenes Laertius say about his education in Egypt. Check out the sections which we chat about below.
Enjoy!

πρῶτοι δὲ καὶ τόνδε τὸν λόγον Αἰγύπτιοι εἰσὶ οἱ εἰπόντες, ὡς ἀνθρώπου ψυχὴ ἀθάνατος ἐστί, τοῦ σώματος δὲ καταφθίνοντος ἐς ἄλλο ζῷον αἰεὶ γινόμενον ἐσδύεται, ἐπεὰν δὲ πάντα περιέλθῃ τὰ χερσαῖα καὶ τὰ θαλάσσια καὶ τὰ πετεινά, αὖτις ἐς ἀνθρώπου σῶμα γινόμενον ἐσδύνει: τὴν περιήλυσιν δὲ αὐτῇ γίνεσθαι ἐν τρισχιλίοισι ἔτεσι. τούτῳ τῷ λόγῳ εἰσὶ οἳ Ἑλλήνων ἐχρήσαντο, οἳ μὲν πρότερον οἳ δὲ ὕστερον, ὡς ἰδίῳ ἑωυτῶν ἐόντι: τῶν ἐγὼ εἰδὼς τὰ οὐνόματα οὐ γράφω.
Ἡροδότου 2.123
νέος δ᾽ ὢν καὶ φιλομαθὴς ἀπεδήμησε τῆς πατρίδος καὶ πάσας ἐμυήθη τάς θ᾽ Ἑλληνικὰς καὶ βαρβαρικὰς τελετάς. ἐγένετ᾽ οὖν ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ, ὁπηνίκα καὶ Πολυκράτης αὐτὸν Ἀμάσιδι συνέστησε δι᾽ ἐπιστολῆς: καὶ ἐξέμαθε τὴν φωνὴν αὐτῶν, καὶ παρὰ Χαλδαίοις ἐγένετο καὶ Μάγοις. κατῆλθεν καὶ ἐν Αἰγύπτῳ εἰς τὰ ἄδυτα: καὶ τὰ περὶ θεῶν ἐν ἀπορρήτοις ἔμαθεν.

Fri, 11 Nov 2022 - 20min - 38 - #34 τῶν θαυμάτων Πυθαγόρου (β᾽)
Ἰωσὴφ καὶ Λέανδρος τοῖς ἀκροαμένοις χαίρειν. σήμερον, ἐν τῷ νέῳ ἐπεισοδίῳ τοῦ ἀκροάματος, ἀναγιγνώσκομεν ποίημα ὃ ἔγραψεν Ἐμπεδοκλῆς περὶ τοῦ Πυθαγόρου:
ἦν δέ τις ἐν κείνοισιν ἀνὴρ περιώσια ειδώς,
ὅς δὴ μήκιστον πραπίδων ἐκτήσατο πλοῦτον,
παντοίων τε μάλιστα σοφῶν ἐπιήρανος ἔργων.
ὁππότε γὰρ πάσῃσιν όρέξαιτo πραπίδεσσι,
ῥεῖά γε τῶν ὄντων πάντων λεύσσεσκεν ἕκαστα,
καί τε δέκ ' ἀνθρώπων καί τ’ εἴκοσιν αἰώνεσσιν.
καὶ περὶ τῶν θαυμάτων ἐν τούτῳ τῷ μέρει λαλοῦμεν:
πάλιν δ᾿ ἐν Καυλωνίαι, ὥς φησιν ᾿Αριστοτέλης [προυσήμηνε τὴν λευκὴν ἄρκτον. καὶ ὁ αὐτὸς ᾿Αριστοτέλης] γράφων περὶ αὐτοῦ πολλὰ μὲν καὶ ἄλλα λέγει καὶ ᾿τὸν ἐν Τυρρηνίαι, φησίν, δάκνοντα θανάσιμον ὄφιν αὐτὸς δάκνων ἀπέκτεινεν᾿. καὶ τὴν γινομένην δὲ στάσιν τοῖς Πυθαγορείοις προειπεῖν. διὸ καὶ εἰς Μεταπόντιον ἀπῆρεν ὑπὸ μηδενὸς θεωρηθείς, καὶ ὑπὸ τοῦ Κάσα ποταμοῦ διαβαίνων σὺν ἄλλοις ἤκουσε φωνὴν μεγάλην ὑπὲρ ἄνθρωπον· ᾿Πυθαγόρα, χαῖρε᾿. τοὺς δὲ παρόντας περιδεεῖς γενέσθαι. ἐφάνη δέ ποτε καὶ ἐν Κρότωνι καὶ ἐν Μεταποντίωι τῆι αὐτῆι ἡμέραι καὶ ὥραι. ἐν θεάτρωι δὲ καθήμενός ποτε ἐξανίστατο, ὥς φησιν ᾿Αριστοτέλης, καὶ τὸν ἴδιον μηρὸν παρέφηνε τοῖς καθημένοις ὡς χρυσοῦν.

Fri, 04 Nov 2022 - 18min - 37 - #33 περὶ τοῦ ἀέρος (Πυθαγόρου α᾽)
χαίρετε πάντες! Continuing on from last week's episode on Paul's idea of the spiritual body, we bring you the first of four episodes on Pythagoras, looking at his idea as to why celestial bodies are immortal. While Paul's and Pythagoras' theories are not quite the same, pneuma is central to both of them.
Enjoy!
Josep & Leandros
Here are the short sections which we discuss. Firstly, from Diogenes Laertius' 'Life of Pythagoras' (8.1.26-27):
τόν τε περὶ τὴν γῆν ἀέρα ἄσειστον καὶ νοσερὸν καὶ τὰ ἐναὐτῷ πάντα θνητά: τὸν δὲ ἀνωτάτω ἀεικίνητόν τ᾽ εἶναι καὶ καθαρὸν καὶ ὑγιᾶ καὶπάντα τὰ ἐν αὐτῷ ἀθάνατα καὶ διὰ τοῦτο θεῖα. ἥλιόν τε καὶ σελήνην καὶ τοὺςἄλλους ἀστέρας εἶναι θεούς.
http://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus%3Atext%3A1999.01.0257%3Abook%3D8%3Achapter%3D1
Secondly, this sentence from the Hippocratic text 'On Winds' (3):
Ἀλλὰ μὴν ἡλίου τε καὶ σελήνης καὶ ἄστρων ὁδὸς διὰ τοῦ πνεύματός ἐστιν· τῷ γὰρ πυρὶ τὸ πνεῦμα τροφή· τοῦ δὲ πνεύματος τὸ πῦρ στερηθὲν οὐκ ἂν δύναιτο ζῇν· ὥστε καὶ τὸν τοῦ ἡλίου δρόμον ἀένναον ὁ ἀὴρ ἀένναος καὶ λεπτὸς ἐὼν παρέχεται.

χαίρετε! Moving on from the theme of the last few weeks on the Psalms, we now investigate Paul's idea of the "spiritual body" from his letter to the Corinthians. How do you interpret it? Let us know in the comments below.
Enjoy the episode,
Josep & Leandros
The section under discussion can be read here (15:35): https://biblehub.com/bgb/1_corinthians/15.htm
The Resurrection Body:
35 Ἀλλὰ ἐρεῖ τις· Πῶς ἐγείρονται οἱ νεκροί; ποίῳ δὲ σώματι ἔρχονται; 36ἄφρων, σὺ ὃ σπείρεις, οὐ ζωοποιεῖται ἐὰν μὴ ἀποθάνῃ· 37 καὶ ὃ σπείρεις, οὐ τὸ σῶμα τὸ γενησόμενον σπείρεις, ἀλλὰ γυμνὸν κόκκον εἰ τύχοι σίτου ἤ τινος τῶν λοιπῶν· 38 ὁ δὲ Θεὸς δίδωσιν αὐτῷ σῶμα καθὼς ἠθέλησεν, καὶ ἑκάστῳ τῶν σπερμάτων ἴδιον σῶμα.
39 Οὐ πᾶσα σὰρξ ἡ αὐτὴ σάρξ, ἀλλὰ ἄλλη μὲν ἀνθρώπων, ἄλλη δὲ σὰρξ κτηνῶν, ἄλλη δὲ σὰρξ πτηνῶν, ἄλλη δὲ ἰχθύων. 40 καὶ σώματα ἐπουράνια, καὶ σώματα ἐπίγεια· ἀλλὰ ἑτέρα μὲν ἡ τῶν ἐπουρανίων δόξα, ἑτέρα δὲ ἡ τῶν ἐπιγείων. 41 ἄλλη δόξα ἡλίου, καὶ ἄλλη δόξα σελήνης, καὶ ἄλλη δόξα ἀστέρων· ἀστὴρ γὰρ ἀστέρος διαφέρει ἐν δόξῃ.
42 Οὕτως καὶ ἡ ἀνάστασις τῶν νεκρῶν. σπείρεται ἐν φθορᾷ, ἐγείρεται ἐν ἀφθαρσίᾳ· 43 σπείρεται ἐν ἀτιμίᾳ, ἐγείρεται ἐν δόξῃ· σπείρεται ἐν ἀσθενείᾳ, ἐγείρεται ἐν δυνάμει· 44 σπείρεται σῶμα ψυχικόν, ἐγείρεται σῶμα πνευματικόν. Εἰ ἔστιν σῶμα ψυχικόν, ἔστιν καὶ πνευματικόν. 45 οὕτως καὶ γέγραπται· Ἐγένετο ὁ πρῶτος ἄνθρωπος Ἀδὰμ εἰς ψυχὴν ζῶσαν·c ὁ ἔσχατος Ἀδὰμ εἰς πνεῦμα ζωοποιοῦν.
46 Ἀλλ οὐ πρῶτον τὸ πνευματικὸν ἀλλὰ τὸ ψυχικόν, ἔπειτα τὸ πνευματικόν. 47 ὁ πρῶτος ἄνθρωπος ἐκ γῆς χοϊκός, ὁ δεύτερος ἄνθρωπος ἐξ οὐρανοῦ. 48 οἷος ὁ χοϊκός, τοιοῦτοι καὶ οἱ χοϊκοί, καὶ οἷος ὁ ἐπουράνιος, τοιοῦτοι καὶ οἱ ἐπουράνιοι· 49καὶ καθὼς ἐφορέσαμεν τὴν εἰκόνα τοῦ χοϊκοῦ, φορέσομεν καὶ τὴν εἰκόνα τοῦ ἐπουρανίου.

How Majestic is Your Name!
Εἰς τὸ τέλος, ὑπὲρ τῶν ληνῶν· ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυείδ. Κύριε ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν, ὡς θαυμαστὸν τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ· ὅτι ἐπήρθη ἡ μεγαλοπρεπία σου ὑπεράνω τῶν οὐρανῶν.
ἐκ στόματος νηπίων καὶ θηλαζόντων κατηρτίσω αἶνον ἕνεκα τῶν ἐχθρῶν σου, τοῦ καταλῦσαι ἐχθρὸν καὶ ἐκδικητήν.
ὅτι ὄψομαι τοὺς οὐρανούς, ἔργα τῶν δακτύλων σου, σελήνην καὶ ἀστέρας ἃ σὺ ἐθεμελίωσας·
τί ἐστιν ἄνθρωπος ὅτι μιμνήσκῃ αὐτοῦ, ἢ υἱὸς ἀνθρώπου ὅτι ἐπισκέπτῃ αὐτόν;
ἠλάττωσας αὐτὸν βραχύ τι παρ᾽ ἀγγέλους, δόξῃ καὶ τιμῇ ἐστεφάνωσας αὐτόν.
καὶ κατέστησας αὐτὸν ἐπὶ τὰ ἔργα χειρῶν σου· πάντα ὑπέταξας ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν αὐτοῦ,
πρόβατα καὶ βόας πάσας, ἔτι δὲ καὶ τὰ κτήνη τοῦ πεδίου,
τὰ πετεινὰ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ τοὺς ἰχθύας τῆς θαλάσσης, τὰ διαπορευόμενα τρίβους θαλασσῶν.
Κύριε ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν, ὡς θαυμαστὸν τὸ ὄνομά σου ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ·

χαίρετε πάντες! Here is the second of three episodes on the Psalms of the Greek Septuagint. Psalm 2 is very culturally influential, so we had a lot to discuss with multiple interpretations.
Enjoy the episode!

Here is a link to the text, you can follow along with our recitation at 2:20 - 5:08.
The Triumphant Messiah
Ἵνα τί ἐφρύαξαν ἔθνη, καὶ λαοὶ ἐμελέτησαν κενά;
παρέστησαν οἱ βασιλεῖς τῆς γῆς καὶ οἱ ἄρχοντες συνήχθησαν ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ κατὰ τοῦ κυρίου καὶ κατὰ τοῦ χριστοῦ αὐτοῦ. διάψαλμα.
διαρρήξωμεν τοὺς δεσμοὺς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἀπορρίψωμεν ἀφ᾽ ἡμῶν τὸν ζυγὸν αὐτῶν.
ὁ κατοικῶν ἐν οὐρανοῖς ἐκγελάσεται αὐτούς, καὶ ὁ κύριος ἐκμυκτηριεῖ αὐτούς.
τότε λαλήσει πρὸς αὐτοὺς ἐν ὀργῇ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ θυμῷ αὐτοῦ ταράξει αὐτούς.
ἐγὼ δὲ κατεστάθην βασιλεὺς ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ Σειὼν ὄρος τὸ ἅγιον αὐτοῦ,
διαγγέλλων τὸ πρόσταγμα Κυρίου. Κύριος εἶπεν πρὸς μέ Υἱός μου εἶ σύ, ἐγὼ σήμερον γεγέννηκά σε·
αἴτησαι παρ᾽ ἐμοῦ, καὶ δώσω σοι ἔθνη τὴν κληρονομίαν σου, καὶ τὴν κατάσχεσίν σου τὰ πέρατα τῆς γῆς·
ποιμανεῖς αὐτοὺς ἐν ῥάβδῳ σιδηρᾷ, ὡς σκεῦος κεραμέως συντρίψεις αὐτούς.
καὶ νῦν, βασιλεῖς, σύνετε· παιδεύθητε, πάντες οἱ κρίνοντες τὴν γῆν.
δουλεύσατε τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν φόβῳ, καὶ ἀγαλλιᾶσθε αὐτῷ ἐν τρόμῳ.
δράξασθε παιδείας, μή ποτε ὀργισθῇ Κύριος, καὶ ἀπολεῖσθε ἐξ ὁδοῦ δικαίας.
ὅταν ἐκκαυθῇ ἐν τάχει ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ. μακάριοι πάντες οἱ πεποιθότες ἐπ᾽ αὐτῷ.
https://biblehub.com/sepd/psalms/2.htm
We also wanted to include the music from Handel's Messiah in this episode, but couldn't due to copyright issues. Nonetheless, you can check out his version of the Psalm here:

The Two Paths:
ΜΑΚΑΡΙΟΣ ἀνὴρ ὃς οὐκ ἐπορεύθη ἐν βουλῇ ἀσεβῶν, καὶ ἐν ὁδῷ ἁμαρτωλῶν οὐκ ἔστη, καὶ ἐπὶ καθέδραν λοιμῶν οὐκ ἐκάθισεν·
ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ Κυρίου τὸ θέλημα αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐν τῷ νόμῳ αὐτοῦ μελετήσει ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτός.
καὶ ἔσται ὡς τὸ ξύλον τὸ πεφυτευμένον παρὰ τὰς διεξόδους τῶν ὑδάτων, ὃ τὸν καρπὸν αὐτοῦ δώσει ἐν καιρῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ τὸ φύλλον αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀπορρυήσεται· καὶ πάντα ὅσα ἂν ποιῇ κατευοδωθήσεται.
οὐχ οὕτως οἱ ἀσεβεῖς, οὐχ οὕτως, ἀλλ᾽ ἢ ὡς ὁ χνοῦς ὃν ἐκριπτεῖ ὁ ἄνεμος ἀπὸ προσώπου τῆς γῆς.
διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἀναστήσονται οἱ ἀσεβεῖς ἐν κρίσει, οὐδὲ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐν βουλῇ δικαίων·
ὅτι γινώσκει Κύριος ὁδὸν δικαίων, καὶ ὁδὸς ἀσεβῶν ἀπολεῖται.

χαίρετε! In the final episode of season 1, we are celebrating 25 episodes of the Ancient Greek podcast and what better way to go out with than to finally discuss some Greek poetry? Not many of Sappho's poems survive in a state that gives us much to talk about, but we have chosen to discuss fragment 16.
Do you have a favourite poem?
Do you think Anaktoria was really Sappho's love?
What is "the kalliston" for you?
Join the discussion on social media and let us know!
It has been a great year for us and doing this podcast every week has really helped us learn more Greek. We hope that you have all learnt as much as we have along the way. The podcast will be back in September after the summer break with season 2, but if you can't wait until then remember that the new episodes are already available on my patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/Hellenizdein?fan_landing=true&view_as=public

Sat, 23 Jul 2022 - 13min - 28 - #24 περὶ τοῦ Θησέως πλοίου
χαίρετε πάντες! Here is our new episode on the paradox known as "The Ship of Theseus". In a previous episode Josep told us that Theseus was his favourite Greek hero. Now we expand on that conversation by reading the short paragraph from Plutarch's "Life of Theseus" where the original idea was developed by philosophers. What do you think? Is the "restored" ship Theseus' or not? Let us know what you think!
Enjoy the episode,
Josep & Leandros
Here is the paragraph from Plutarch:
τὸ δὲ πλοῖον ἐν ᾧ μετὰ τῶν ἠϊθέων ἔπλευσε καὶ πάλιν ἐσώθη, τὴν τριακόντορον, ἄχρι τῶν Δημητρίου τοῦ Φαληρέως χρόνων διεφύλαττον οἱ Ἀθηναῖοι, τὰ μὲν παλαιὰ τῶν ξύλων ὑφαιροῦντες, ἄλλα δὲ ἐμβάλλοντες ἰσχυρὰ καὶ συμπηγνύντες οὕτως ὥστε καὶ τοῖς: φιλοσόφοις εἰς τὸν αὐξόμενον λόγον ἀμφιδοξούμενον παράδειγμα τὸ πλοῖον εἶναι, τῶν μὲν ὡς τὸ αὐτό, τῶν δὲ ὡς οὐ τὸ αὐτὸ διαμένοι λεγόντων.

Sun, 26 Jun 2022 - 10min - 24 - #20 περὶ τῶν ἀκροαμάτων
χαίρετε! This week we are chatting about a few of the other podcasts that have inspired us.
Quomodo Digitur was a Latin podcast and the first to show that such a thing as a regular podcast was possible in an ancient language, using original dialogue rather than just reciting an ancient text. This podcast has always been the model for what we are trying to do, the same idea, but in Greek. If you are into Latin, their whole podcast series is available here:
The other podcast that has been most influential is Alexander Veronensis' Barbarismoi, as far as I know, the first podcast in Ancient Greek. His series has now been deleted, but is still available on youtube here:

χαίρετε! Today we are discussing Greek novellas, short books that are written to help students progress with the language. There are now plenty of these for Latin, but not so many for Greek. We discuss my novella in progress, which you can read on my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Hellenizdein?fan_landing=true and also several others which I recommend as great reads to improve your Greek reading fluency.
Hermes Panta Kleptei is available here: https://www.lulu.com/en/gb/shop/john-foulk-and-mahkeda-kellman/hermes-panta-kleptei/paperback/product-wq5eqm.html?page=1&pageSize=4

Do you know of any other Greek novellas? Let us know in the comments section if there is another I've missed.

πῶς λέγεται bonus episode ἑλληνιστί; Last week Josep told us about his favourite hero from Greek myth, Theseus, so we decided to have a spontaneous reading of Theseus' story from Mythologica (p.73-82), a book written in simple Greek for beginner students. While we are committed to producing our own original material, occasionally we may also supplement this with extra readings of existing Greek materials.
