EDITORIAL REVIEW

The best-selling and most widely accepted New Testament Greek textbook has just gotten better. The author has made the book more user-friendly and offers options to professors, particularly enabling them to introduce Greek verbs earlier as well as offering some made-up sentences to challenge the students.

Best Grammar I have seen
~ Written on May 12, 2008. out of users found this review helpful.

This is the best grammar I have used in my 18 years in the ministry. I have tutored Greek students on occasion and have found this grammar to be the best grammar available. The "inductive" approach is very easy to follow. I highly recommend this grammar as a primary to anyone reviewing their Greek (or secondary grammar to any student) who wants a clear overview of Koine Greek. I use it as part of my daily reading and study.
After learning Dr. Mounce's noun and verb rules for recognizing the "roots," I no longer need to memorize so many paradigms. Once I learned the morphology of the language, the large amount of memorization other grammars require is greatly reduced. This grammar is a must study (or review) for any preacher or teacher working in the New Testament Greek text.

Excellent Way to Learn Beginning Biblical Greek
~ Written on Feb 13, 2008. out of users found this review helpful.

This book has proven to be an excellent way for me to learn enough Biblical Greek to at least have an understanding of why different interpretations of scripture are debated among scholars. I am a lay reader of Biblical Greek and Hebrew and this more or less beginner course was very helpful. Prof. Mounce keeps the reader encouraged with his count of NT Greek word occurrences and a tally of the number of words in the NT one can read based on vocabulary progress from chapter to chapter. Why, after only learning the vocabulary of 8 chapters and only 72 Greek words, I can read over 50% of the words in a Greek NT. (Of course, that means I must skip around to read half of the NT and I am reading words like "and" and "the" etc. a lot, but it is a fun way to keep up with progress. The exegetical insights at the beginning of each chapter are very interesting ways of gaining a sense of the reasons for varying interpetations of scripture.

I highly recommend this book for pastors who don't know Greek but who want to learn the basics of the language to help them study their Bible for sermons.

Great koine Greek text!!!
~ Written on Jan 3, 2008. out of users found this review helpful.

From the beginning you use the bible! It is a wonderful course and the CD that comes in the back of the book is puts you right there in the class room. You will need the workbook. He has a website with extras and the answers to the workbook. I have studied 7 languages and attempted Greek once before, this text is wonderful. He has a novel way of presenting material with a fraction of the memorization of traditional methods. Well executed program. I am translating after 3 weeks.

Well done

Those two words describe this work. It is put together well, and easy to follow.
