Product Description

Review

"...established itself as a standard work." New Testament Ament Abstracts "...Wenham's Elements proved to be an excellent and highly successful textbook for average college students." Religious Studies Review


Product Description

First published in 1965, The Elements of New Testament Greek has, over the years, established itself as the standard textbook for scholars and students of the Bible. The book is now reissued with a number of small revisions and additions, and a more substantial change concerning the recitation of the alphabet. Otherwise, the aim of this perennially popular book remains as before: to present the elements (and only the elements) of new Testament Greek as simply, clearly, and completely as possible, so that the student may be spared all unnecessary toil, and may make rapid progress in understanding the lingua franca of the Hellenistic world.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good introduction but with reservation, 11 May 2002
By A Customer
On the whole I like this book. It is methodical, systematic and tries to present the material in a clear and simple way. My one reservation is the exercises and revisions. Firstly you need to buy a key if you want to see the answers to the exercises, secondly the later exercises contain words not covered in the vocabulary and lastly there are regular revisions but no answers. I found this to be most frustrating but otherwise I would say this is a pretty good introduction.

4.0 out of 5 stars There is no perfect text book, but..., 7 Feb 2002
By A Customer
I have just finish working my way through this book and although it my have been an arduous task at times it was most certainly a beneficial one. I have seen other text books that my make learning New Testament Greek look more fun but they do not have Wenham's depth or structure. This revised edition is also most beneficial for those in my generation that were not taught grammar at school; every thing is explained unpatronisingly and intellectually. You'll find you know a lot more about English as well as having a full grasp of New Testament Greek.

3.0 out of 5 stars Used to be standard text - much better available now, 4 Oct 2001
By Anthony Forsyth - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This used to be the standard text for many years and, to be honest, it is OK. However, there are much better ways to study Greek than this.

I have on my shelf a collection of 10+ different basic Greek grammars - from the very old to the very new. This is the best of the older ones and better than several new ones in different ways. However, it doesn't even come close to the best.

If you want to learn NT Greek you should not be distracted by this new marketing push of an outdated text. Buy "The Basics of Biblical Greek" by Bill Mounce (both the grammar & workbook)and then continue on through the consistently excellent Zondervan series as you progress. You won't regret it!

I tried many grammars including this one - I wish I had found Mounce's first.

This is just the key to Wenham's Elements of NTG, not the actual book itself (as described above). Overall this book does exactly what it says on the tin. Read more
