I have recently purchased this book, and it has already paid for itself!I am a 1st year seminary student that has been exposed to about 4 years of Greek. I attend the church where the seminary Professor's Pastor and teach. I have also known many seminary students and graduates for the same reason.Over the last 4 years, despite the attempts of Professor's, students, and Summer's Beginning Grammar, I have been unable to fully comprehend certain terms or concepts dealing with Greek grammar. One such example, is the "distance from reality" of certain moods.For the first time in close to 5 years, I have a grasp of several concepts that have eluded me. This is thanks solely to this awesome little book, "Pocket Dictionary For the Study of New Testament Greek." I have found the definitions to be crisp and clear, and highly illuminating. Its as though I finally have an author that writes on the same frequency that I learn on!I also discovered today in class that the Greek Professor owns a copy as well. He has over two decades of experience teaching Greek. For the first time, he found a definition for a verb composition that has eluded him for years. He discovered it in this same book.A brief perusal of "Pocket Dictionary For the Study of New Testament Greek" has already shown me that I am in for quite a treat. This book has virtually opened up a whole new world of terms to me, some of which go beyond Greek, into areas like "Textual Criticism."I typically am not one for writing reviews. But there may be others reading this, that are like me. I am clear that it is God's will for me to master Greek. But while I appreciate Summer's, Mounce, Wallace, Dana & Mantey, and the plethora of other grammars out there...
