There are a few other biblical/classical grammars written using the  
structuralist framework. One is Waldo S. Sweet, Latin a Structural  
Approach 1957, published the same year as Chomsky's Syntatic  
Structures, E.V.N. Goetchius Language of the NT, 1965. Funk's 2nd Ed.  
was published in 1973. Waltke-O'Connor Biblical Hebrew Syntax was  
still dabbling in structuralism in the 1990s.

 From what I have read so far I can see that R.W. Funk is preferable  
to some of the other first year grammars but one can only wish that  
the framework was something more current than C.C. Fries The  
Structure of English 1952.
