The student or translator of the New Testament will often find difficulties which can only be solved by considering the syntax of the passage concerned. Professor Moule here provides a reference book which gives guidance on such problems of exegesis. It is a work which presupposes a knowledge of Greek and makes frequent allusions to the standard works; it is intended primarily for theological students. After an introductory section on 'The Language of the New Testament' Professor Moule considers in turn particular syntactical divisions (tenses, moods, voices, cases), certain parts of speech and types of clauses, and idiosyncrasies in usage. The last four chapters are 'The order of words', 'Semitisms', 'Latinisms', and 'Miscellaneous notes on style'. In each section New Testament usages are defined and distinguished. A number of examples of each type of problem are discussed. They were chosen as being sufficiently representative to provide a guide to the treatment of similar difficulties.

A Classic reference for New Testament Greek students,
By Ben Macklin (Ranger, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Idiom Book of New Testament Greek (Paperback)
Moule's book is a classic reference that brings out the shades of meaning expressed through colloquial terms found in the Greek New Testament. This book is a must have if the serious student of the bible is to grasp a deeper understanding of the intent of the New Testament authors. Indexed very well by verse. Brief explanations that add greater understanding in exegesis.
