First published in 1914, A.T. Robertson's Grammar of Greek New Testament is still the pinnacle of Baptist biblical scholarship. A time-proven resource that is an essential part of any Greek New Testament student's library.

A CUT ABOVE,
By KIM M. RUSHTON (LOS ANGELES, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Grammar of Greek New Testament in the Light of Historical Research (Hardcover)
Very seldom in my life have I used the word genius about anyone, but if anyone deserves the title it is Robertson. This is not a book for beginners, Robertson does not translate his examples, which, by the way are elegant. I can tell from his references to him that Wallace respects his prowess in the Greek language to a great extent. His historical comments are clear, concise, and very infomative. This book is a treasure trove of information about greek and how to fine tune your understanding of every asoect of it. It's a good addition to your library, if for nothing else but to push you to keep learning more.KIM M. RUSHTON

Excellent, but hard to read and a little quirky.,

This massive yellow tome contains lots of New Testament examples to illustrate every grammatical principal, and the index of scripture citations seems to list a citation for the majority of verses in the New Testament. I strongly prefer this to any other New Testament grammar, but it is easier to read if I look at the shorter, more systematic explanations in Smyth's Greek Grammar first. Robertson is quirky at times, but very rich. See "http://www.mindspring.com/~jwrobie/littleGreek.html" for a fuller review of this grammar and other grammars.

not a true grammar,

This review is from: A Grammar of Greek New Testament in the Light of Historical Research (Hardcover)
don't drop this book on your foot! its about 1500 pages of advanced, sometimes arcane info. in short, this is NOT an introductory grammar, or even an intermediate one. this text assumes working knowledge of grammar AND syntax. it deals more with historical development of koine greek, the dialect in which the new testament was written. in it you will find out why greek no longer has an ablative case (as latin and sanskrit did), what the significance of second aorists, perfects, and futures etc. so, if you are a linguistic theologian or teacher, you need this book - if you are interested only in using greek in sermon preparation or for word studies, it's a waste of money.
