<TITLE>RE: [b-greek] Good History of Biblical Greek/Koine Scholarship?</TITLE>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>One of the better such treatments is *The Interpretation of the New Testament, 1861-1986,* by Stephen Neill, 2d ed. edited by Tom Wright (Oxford Univ. Press, 1988). This deals with NT studies more generally, but I assume from the issues you list that this is what you're seeking. If you want *Greek* studies in a stricter sense, then perhaps a good resource would be the introduction to a recent major grammar. In that category, perhaps Dan Wallace's is the most recent with the most extensive introduction: *Beyond the Basic of Biblical Greek: An Exegetical Syntax of the NT* (Zondervan, 1996). There are other "intermediate" grammars of recent vintage (e.g., Young, McKay, Porter), but they don't spend much time on the issues concerning which you inquire.</FONT></P>
