Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
The Groundbreaking Tyndale House Greek New Testament, Complete with Comprehensive Dictionary

Reflecting decades of scholarly advances, The Greek New Testament, Produced at Tyndale House, Cambridge was created under the oversight of editors Dr. Dirk Jongkind (St. Edmund’s College, University of Cambridge) and Dr. Peter Williams (Tyndale House, Cambridge). Their team took a rigorously philological approach to reevaluating the standard text―reexamining spelling and paragraph decisions as well as allowing more recent discoveries related to scribal habits to inform editorial decisions.

This edition features an exhaustive dictionary, giving readers a tool for rewarding study. Eliminating the need to frequently reference other materials, this resource with the added dictionary is ideal for students, pastors, and those who are less familiar with Greek.


My Review:
The Greek New Testament is the New Testament text entirely in Greek. There's a dictionary in the back giving the English for the Greek words. The text size is decent, not large print nor small or tiny print. I'm only just starting to learn biblical Greek, but I thought a Greek New Testament would be useful to have. It's a hardback and the paper it's printed on is thick enough to endure use (not tissue-thin). The text is described as from "the standard text."


If you've read this book, what do you think about it? I'd be honored if you wrote your own opinion of the book in the comments.
