Product Description

Originally published in three volumes in 1973, Robert Funk’s classic Grammar utilizes the insights of modern linguistics in its presentation of the basic features of ancient Greek. Since modern linguistics aims to be descriptive, rather than prescriptive, Funk’s Grammar highlights the bread-and-butter features of New Testament Greek, rather than how it deviates from classical Greek. Students who use this Grammar will learn how to read Greek in one year, rather than having to depend on ponies or interlinear editions of the Greek New Testament. Now redesigned and reformatted for ease of use, this single-volume third edition makes Funk’s ground-breaking work available once more. » 5 Innovative Features of the Funk Grammar Robert W.
