Campbell reveals the lexical, syntactic, and grammatical features of these New Testament epistles in order to provide readers with an intermediate knowledge of biblical Greek a guide through Paul's words.

Trade Review"This concisely written handbook is rich with semantic and grammatical insights that will prove very helpful to pastors and teachers who are serious about reading the Greek New Testament carefully and accurately. Readers will also find Campbell's rigorous and sustained application of verbal aspect theory enlightening for understanding how this contributes to a proper interpretation of the verbal elements in the text." -- Clinton E Arnold, Dean & Professor of New Testament, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University
One could hardly ask for a more reliable guide than Constantine Campbell. -- John K. Goodrich -- Religious Studies Review
