Dr. Kevin Grasso is a biblical scholar, author, and linguist. He holds a PhD in Hebrew Language from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, as well as an MA in Linguistics (focusing on the Biblical Hebrew verbal system) and an MA in Comparative Religion (focusing on Paul and second temple Judaism). His academic work has appeared in leading journals and edited volumes, where he applies theoretical linguistics to exegetical problems. His current research focus is on the Messiah, law, faith, and justification in Paul's letters. Alongside his academic career, Kevin is the co-founder and CEO of Biblingo, an innovative and effective way to learn biblical Greek and Hebrew."

You can connect with him at kevin@biblingo.org

Also,one cool thing about Dr. Kevin is that he can actually speak biblical Greek and Hebrew conversationally (something very few people - even scholars - can do). He lived in Israel for several years and knows a lot about the original languages and culture of the Bible.
