Greek Grammar Book Order for Self Learning
Posted: September 20th, 2017, 4:43 pm
Hello,
I read an article by Corey Keating at ntgreek.org titled "New Testament Greek Grammar Books" and I have a few questions I would like to get your thoughts on.
I have the following books and need some help to know which order is best to learn Greek and to continue on my Greek journey.
Basics of Biblical Greek - Mounce
Basics of Biblical Greek Workbook - Mounce
A Graded Reader of Biblical Greek - Mounce
A Summer Greek Reader - Goodrich
The Basics of New Testament Syntax - Wallace
New Testament Syntax Workbook - Wallace
Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics - Wallace
Biblical Greek Exegesis - Guthrie
The Student's Complete Vocabulary Guide to the Greek New Testament - Trenchard
Basics of Verbal Aspect in Biblical Greek - Campbell
Morphology of Biblical Greek - Mounce
The Analytical Lexicon to the Greek New Testament - Mounce
I understand Trenchard's Vocabulary Guide and Mounce's Analytical Lexicon to be reference books, and therefore not necessarily included in the order. I also have BDAG, NA28/UBS5, and Metzger's Commentary on Textual Criticism.
Following the order in the article, where would Goodrich, Guthrie, and Campbell's books fall among Mounce and Wallace? How would you order the list above for a self learner?
Where should I go after completing Morphology? Would it be useful to take up grammars by Robertson or Machen or Funk? Is there another book for advanced reading of the Greek New Testament? Would it be helpful to get a reader's version of NA28 for regular devotional reading?
Thanks for your help
