I used this beginning Greek New Testament grammar book over 30 years ago when I first came back to the Christian faith. The Greek course was taught by a good Chemist friend of mine who had once studied to be a Roman Catholic priest. It was a very interesting time in my life, and a very interesting Greek course! (Wish I could remember more of the Greek!).
