An Exegetical Workbook Of New Testament Grammar, Mike Weber

Western Evangelical Seminary Theses

The purpose of this paper is to provide quick reference aid in New Testament grammar for the serious Greek exegete. The reference charts promote the analytical discernment of the exegete.

This analysis then provides a better interpretation of the text. The charts are not to be used to justify the function of a verb, infinitive, participle, conjunction or preposition for a preference in theology but to discover the true meaning of the text.
