The Exegetical Guide to the Greek New Testament (EGGNT) closes the gap between the Greek text and the available lexical and grammatical tools, providing all the necessary information for greater understanding of the text. The series makes interpreting any given New Testament book easier, especially for those who are hard pressed for time but want to preach or teach with accuracy and authority.
The Exegetical Guide to the Greek New Testament is a series that seeks to bring together classroom, study, and pulpit by providing the student or pastor with the information needed to understand and expound the Greek text of the New Testament.
Each volume begins with a brief introduction to the particular New Testament book, a basic outline, and a list of recommended commentaries. The body is devoted to a translation and paraphrase of the whole book and extensive paragraph-by-paragraph exegesis of the Greek text. Also included are homiletical helps and suggestions for further study along with a glossary of grammatical and rhetorical terms. A comprehensive exegetical outline of the New Testament book completes each EGGNT volume.
Reviews
"With this handbook, you will benefit from the expertise of one who is at the same time a Roman historian, a Greek scholar, and a pastor who regularly preaches the word of God." - Clinton E. Arnold, Talbot School of Theology
"Thankfully, there is an explosion of interest today in doing Greek exegesis, but pastors and students need help, and there simply isn't time to cover all that is needed in the classroom. Hellerman's work on Philippians is a model for what is needed...I recommend Hellerman's commentary enthusiastically." - Thomas R. Schreiner, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
"Clear, concise, accurate - these are the things I'm looking for in a commentary. Joe Hellerman's exegetical handbook on Philippians is a model for all three qualities." - Mark L. Strauss, Bethel Seminary, San Diego.
