To: Jim West,

David Ritsema: << What is the best grammar book for learning advanced Greek 
syntax. >>

JW: << Dana & Mantey's A Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament. >>

Not to quibble, each to their own, and all that, but I would class Dana & 
Mantey's as an intermediate (rather than advanced) grammar. Other 
intermediate grammars would include: "An Exegetical Grammar of the Greek 
New Testament" by William Douglas Chamberlain (1941); "An Idiom Book of New 
Testament Greek" by C. F. D. Moule (2nd edition; Cambridge UP, 1959); and: 
"Idioms of the Greek New Testament" by Stanley E. Porter (Sheffield 
Academic Press, 1992).
