Robin:

So far as the study of Greek is concerned, I'm always happy to push Mounce's
"Basics of Biblical Greek," published by Zondervan.  As one who is
completely self taught, I have plodded through several primers, and the
Mounce grammar seems to me to be the easiest to use, particularly since his
approach bypasses the need to memorize 50-some-odd paradigms.  Also, it is
one of a complete series of interrelated books on NT Greek published by
Zondervan, which I think is very helpful.  Concerning an interlinear, I own
"The New Greek-English Interlinear New Testament," published by Tyndale,
which I find  easy to read.

Regards.

Ted
