Save your money and buy the 6 volume set. Dr. Robertson never intended for this work to be missing his transliteration of the Koine Greek and expected that the scholar would have the W&H text open as the word pictures were being explained. Milk may be good when condensed - this clearly isn't.

2.0 out of 5 stars No greek at all, August 7, 2003

This review is from: Word Pictures in the New Testament (Hardcover)

Everybody knows Robertson's Word Pictures to be an excellent reference for Bible study.

But I was deceived by this edition of his work: no greek, no grammar explained. It is an abridged version !

Maybe I made an error in choosing this edition, but don't make the same, and buy the original version !

You know who A. T. Robertson is. His Greek grammar is the standard against which all other grammars are judged.

In this 6 volume set, Robertson analyzes a key word or phrase from almost every passage of the New Testament. Not only does he give the syntax, but he also gives a good deal of background on each word, such as where else it is found, as well as the connotations of the orginial Greek.

If you are a pastor, this book will be of great help to you in your sermon preparation. It will give you a good amount of material to draw on for sermon illustrations.
