I have read this book at least three times, constantly reviewing my Koine Greek. In terms of pedagogy, this book can be used to self-teach oneself. I have no other first year Greek grammars to compare it to (other than a Classical Greek Grammar) so this review maybe slightly biased. But his approach definitely makes learning Greek easier. I have done another three semesters of Classical Greek and I felt sorry for the students who had to memorize every single paradigm. Mounce's approach (note that the forms in Koine do not vary much from Classical) is much easier than the previous, since he gives many rules that make learning the paradigms much easier.

As I moved on and reflected back, I do give a word of caution. Unlike a year of Classical Greek, Mounce's approach is slightly lighter and the first year student (at least after Mounce's book) is not adequately prepared to tackle the Greek text. Everything is limited after the first year, so once one is done with this book, please, I urge you, continue. Remember the goal is to learn to read God's word!!! ( )

Excellent book. It almost takes the difficulty out of learning the language, while simultaneously reminding you of the purpose for learning Greek, and keeping it fun too. I heartily recommend this to anyone desiring to learn Greek. ( )

The book was extremely helpful for learning Koine Greek. Yet, as with all languages, it is not enough just to read a grammar. It is extremely important to have someone to teach you and to answer tough questions. Overall, I found Mounce's writing style to be friendly and encouraging. I didn't care much for the exegetical insight; they were irrelevant and/or confusing. The book is a great beginner's grammar. ( )

My class on Biblical Greek used this book as out main text. The book was fine as far as a text but the class never elaborated so I didn't get much out of it. I'll make a second attempt on trying it on my own when i have more time. I reccomend using the workbook with it and taking your time, going back to the basics when you need to. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0310250870, Hardcover)

New, updated editions of the best-selling and most widely accepted textbook and workbook for learning biblical Greek William D. Mounce's Basics of Biblical Greek Grammar and its companion tool Basics of Biblical Greek Workbook are by far the best-selling and most widely accepted textbooks for learning New Testament Greek. These excellent tools for studying New Testament Greek are now even better. As a result of feedback from professors, the author has made adjustments to his material. For example, a chapter on clauses has been added at the end of the book. The CD-ROM is now easier to use and has even more information on it than the earlier edition. The workbook has been significantly rewritten. Nearly 50 percent of the verses are new. They are shorter and more focused on the grammar of the chapter. Features include: - Best-selling Greek language textbook - Changes from the first edition made in response to ten years of use - Grammar's CD-ROM is easier to navigate and now includes short audio summary lectures (7-9 minutes) - An appendix in the Grammar allows professors to introduce verbs earlier in the course - Two tracks in the workbook: track one allows you to go through the book in the normal order. Track two has totally different exercises that allow you to teach verbs earlier. - Workbook has 3-hole, perforated pages
