Description
Drawing from his long teaching experience, Gerald Stevens has successfully produced a comprehensive and clear Biblical Greek grammar for beginners and students of the New Testament. The book presents a practical format for learning, with full indexes and a number of illustrations. Exercises are included within the text, and the answer key is followed by indexes that include vocabulary, principal parts, paradigms and subjects. An appendix of English grammar helps the student link the two languages.

Reviews
"I'm delighted to see this new edition of a work that offers an excellent choice as an introductory Greek grammar. The layout of the book is wonderfully student-friendly due to the abundance of tables, charts, and listings... For students who struggle with the foundations of grammar in English even before starting to study Greek, the chapters that review English grammar concepts will be a welcome aid that most Greek grammars fail to offer." -William F. Warren, Jr., New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary "... With Stevens's help, students will develop not only a mastery of elementary biblical Greek but they will also be nurtured in their appreciation for the cultural contexts from which it comes. In a word, Stevens's Primer sets a new standard for Greek grammars and will richly reward anyone who uses it. Those of us who teach biblical languages are indebted to Stevens once again for moving us forward. Students have here a friendly and trustworthy guide." -Robert A. Bryant, Presbyterian College, author of The Risen Crucified Christ in Galatians "... Integrating the exercises into the text enhances the usefulness of this text for the professor and reinforces for the student the necessity of active participation in learning the language. This volume remains my first choice for an introductory textbook for New Testament Greek." -Richard Warren Johnson, East Texas Baptist University "... This is a highly effective way to teach Greek to beginning students. Stevens once again accomplished his goal, even with a sense of humor along the way. I highly recommend this Greek Primer for all beginning Greek students." -Renate Viveen Hood, LeTourneau University
