The Analytical Lexicon to the Greek New Testament

I just finished my first year of Biblical Greek, and I have found this lexicon absolutely necessary. Especially for this summmer or take home translation assignments when I get stuck parsing a pluperfect or my brain is just fried...Bill Mounce to the rescue!! This lexicon lists every form found in the New Testament in alphabetical order and gives you the lexical form of the word just in case you haven't memorized it. The layout is amazingly simple to use. I used it this morning during bible study. This is money well spent. Study, practice, teach ezra 7:10.

This provides all the information you need to parse words in Greek translation assignments. It is well put together, and as user friendly as this type of resource can be. I recommend reading the "how to use" section of the preface in order to use this tool most effectively.

I am in my first year of New Testament Greek, and as a beginner I've found this lexicon easy to use, and it has most of the words I've needed. It spells out all the pertinent information about the word needed for a proper translation in an intuitive manner. This was the Lexicon recommended for my class by the professor and I'm very happy with it thus far. Again, I'm not an advanced student, so I can't speak to those who are further along, but if you're just getting started in a classroom environment, this is a good Lexicon.

If you are taking your first semester of Greek, and trying to learn how to translate the New Testament, you need this book. Every word in the New Testament is here so no matter how the Greek root has been mutated into some unrecognizable form, you can still figure it out. This book will help avoid sleepless nights puzzling over the Greek text.

I don't understand the other review here. Perschbacher's analytical lexicon is essentially identical to this one, and contains errors (according to Mounce himself, in a note he sent to the B-Greek list) that are corrected in Mounce's analytical lexicon. As for morphology, you probably can't get much more detailed than Mounce's book by that title -- but that's another work entirely. This book (or SOME up-to-date analytical lexicon) is essential for non-Greek students working from an interlinear, and also very helpful for those who've taken Greek and can't recognize all the forms by sight (WHO CAN!?!?).
