Book Description

May 2009
For over twenty years, first-year Greek students have relied on James Allen Hewett's New Testament Greek: A Beginning and Intermediate Grammar for its straightforward approach to the fundamentals of language study. Now completely revised and updated, this trusted grammar will provide a new generation of beginning scholars with a solid foundation for doing translation, exegesis, and biblical interpretation.

New Testament Greek clearly presents complex Greek grammatical concepts in terms of familiar English grammar. Each concept is then illustrated using multiple examples from the New Testament, and students apply their learning with translation exercises drawn directly from biblical text instead of artificial sentences created by grammarians. The CD-ROM included with the textbook contains powerful learning tools for vocalizing Greek, mastering new vocabulary, and identifying verb forms.

Features include:
* new chapters providing a foundational understanding of the basic components of language
* a linguistically informed chapter on how languages communicate meaning
* detailed explanations of complex grammatical constructions that shed light on biblical meanings
* grammatical discussions that reflect recent advances in the understanding of Greek tense and case
* vocabulary study lists based on NT word frequency
* Greek-to-English translation exercises that help students quickly build competency and confidence
* optional "A Step Beyond" advanced grammar sections and English-to-Greek translation exercises
* expanded reference appendixes, including summary word charts, vocabulary lists, and a list of principal parts of common verbs
* a dictionary of all the Greek words used in the text
* a complete answer key to the translation exercises on the CD-ROM

5.0 out of 5 stars Certainly One of the Best, March 18, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New Testament Greek: A Beginning and Intermediate Grammar [With CDROM] (Greek Edition) (Hardcover)
I have had almost all of the modern grammars and some old ones too, and this one is one of the best. There is no need to get bogged down with these series (or sets) that teach NT Greek. A decent grammar like this one, A Greek NT, a Bauers Lexicon, and a few other reference books is what you need, not a relatively endless dependence on teaching materials published by you know who. Get a good grammar like this one, some reference books, and dig in. Dealing with the NT text is the way to learn NT Greek.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent text!, November 20, 2009
This review is from: New Testament Greek: A Beginning and Intermediate Grammar [With CDROM] (Greek Edition) (Hardcover)
I've had 2 years of Homeric Greek and 1 of New Testament Greek. I completed my schooling in 1996 and have not kept up with my studies until recently. I am reading this book as a refresher and I am astounded at how well it helps me to bring together what I learned in the past. It focuses on grammar and how to pull together all the little 'rules' into a holistic survey. I would recommend it to any serious student of the Greek language. A key to the exercises is also available so that a student, studying on his/her own, can check his/her work for accuracy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nicely done, June 6, 2010
This review is from: New Testament Greek: A Beginning and Intermediate Grammar [With CDROM] (Greek Edition) (Hardcover)
Having a first and second year Greek grammar bundled was a brilliant idea. The first chapter outlining morphology of the language is foundational and unique to Hewitt. The chapters on parsing and declensions are especially helpful as well. I will be requiring this text of my students in my first class on Koine.
