J. Gresham Machen's classic manual for students in biblical studies has been carefully revised and updated by Dan G. McCartney who holds the same academic appointment at Westminster Theological Seminary that Machen himself once held. Students who have no prior understanding of the Greek language will find this new edition eminently readable and valuable in their study of scripture. New to This Edition:

• Glossary of basic grammatical and linguistic terms--Helps students recognize and understand frequently used terms and cross-reference with word roots
• Charts and figures on grammar--Includes a list of prepositions, a chart of vowel contractions, a regular verb formation chart, and several new paradigms
• Word list of 250 terms--Highlights the 250 words appearing most frequently in the Greek New Testament, prepared by Professor Bruce M. Metzger for this new edition
• Updated style--For example, substitutes 'you' for 'thee' and 'thou', in language familiar to today's students

This book is intended primarily for learners who are beginning the study of the Greek Testament either without any previous acquaintance with the Greek language or with an acquaintance so imperfect that a renewed course of elementary instruction is needed. This revision, over seventy-five years since the first edition was published, retains much of the character and organization of the first edition while accommodating readers today who lack an understanding of Latin and grammar necessary for fully comprehending the original edition.
