Editorial Reviews

After teaching Greek for more than thirty years and examining many textbooks, I can say without any reservation that this is the best book on Greek morphology that I have seen. Professors Brooks and Winbery have made an invaluable contribution to the study of the Greek language in both colleges and seminaries.

... helps students not only learn but also understand the formation of verbs... This book is ideal for a Greek teacher, but also will serve as an invaluable reference for all students of the Greek New Testament.

After years of hard work, Brooks and Winbery have produced the most comprehensive and definitive treatment of New Testatment Greek morphology. This book will become a standard reference book for all students and scholars of the Greek New Testament forthe next generation. I recommend it without reservation.
