I've enjoyed being part of the B-Greek list this last month or so. In
reading the posts, I realize that I probably don't have adequate Greek
Grammar resources on hand. Keeping in mind that I working on a pretty
restricted budget, and that I don't translate Greek every week, what are
your recommendations?
I still have my seminary textbook, The Language of the New Testament by
Goetchius. I loved learning from it, because it did such a good job of
taking apart both English and Greek grammar. But it isn't always easy to
use as a reference grammar.
A retired pastor friend gave me "Let's Study Greek" by Clarence Hale, but I
haven't really worked with it.
The same friend also gave me Conybeare and Stock's "A Grammar of Septuagint
Greek."
Somewhere we have the textbook my husband used. All I remember about it is
that it used stick figures and made me glad I had decided to take Greek at
another seminary in town. (My husband tells me it was a useful approach for
some folks, but it would have driven me crazy!)
Thanks for your input,
Lorinda Hoover,
pastor and stay-at-home mom
