For new students of biblical Greek this book will be a welcomed tool. But if one already has technical commentaries (such as Aune, Beale, or even Fanning), grammatical aids (such as Rogers or Zerwick), modern Bible software (Logos or Accordance), or even an intermediate knowledge of Greek, this book will be redundant. It is still caught in the same tradition of teaching Biblical Greek common to seminarians, but lacks the rigor of the advances made in modern linguistics. One only needs to refer to Cook's masterful Handbook to the Aramaic portion's of Daniel and Ezra (published in Baylor's sister series on the Hebrew Bible) to see the potential, as well as the new standard, of these Baylor Handbooks. In many ways, it is a product of its time. ( )
