A Greek-English
Lexicon of the New Testament
and Other Early Christian Literature (3rd ed.)|
This is the standard lexicon of New Testament Greek. It is Danker's revision of the
English adaptation of Walter Bauer's classic German work. Known to many as
"Arndt & Gingrich," the first edition came out in 1957 and is often referenced
as BAG (Bauer, Arndt, Gingrich). Danker became involved in the much expanded 2nd
edition that came out in 1979, known as BAGD (Bauer, Arndt, Gingrich, Danker).
The 3rd edition is Danker's revision. It was published in 2000 and is known as
BDAG (Bauer, Danker, Arndt, Gingrich). Bauer's name still stands in the first
position, but Danker's name now precedes those of Arndt and Gingrich. |

The Text of the New Testament by Bruce Metzger
If you have ever wondered why your Bible says "some manuscripts say...",
this book will be useful to you. It is a very readable and interesting
description of the manuscripts from which texts of the Greek New Testament
have been collated. Metzger describes the physical characteristics of
ancient manuscripts, the causes of errors in copying them, some of the
particularly important manuscripts, the history of New Testament textual
criticism, and the principles involved in attempting to ascertain which
reading among diverse readings is the original reading. |

Basics of Biblical
Greek by William D. Mounce
|
Frankly, this is not my favorite
instructional grammar for beginners. However, Mounce's
book is very popular. It is perhaps currently the most
popular beginning grammar, and is used in many schools. A lot of people
who use it love it. If you are
enrolled in a course where this text is required, you will want to check out the "Best
Price" advertised at right. But note that some of the volumes sold at the
"Best Price" are used. Also, if you are considering buying a used copy, be
sure to inquire about the edition that is being offered. You may need the
updated edition for your class. | Basics of Biblical Greek Grammar
