At over 1,500 pages, Archibald Thomas Robertson’s Grammar of the Greek New Testament in the Light of Historical Research is one of the most exhaustive descriptions of New Testament Greek ever produced.
No reference grammar written in English since Robertson’s covers NT Greek in as much detail. Thus, this grammar remains an important tool for the exegete, even though it is somewhat older and should be supplemented with modern grammars to take into account advances in the field.
Modern reference grammars (e.g., Blass-Debrunner-Funk’s A Greek Grammar of the New Testament and Early Christian Literature and Daniel Wallace’s Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics) and lexicons (e.g., Bauer-Danker-Arndt-Gingrich’s A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature) often contain bibliographic references to Robertson’s discussions of important points.
In addition to making sure that the Logos Bible Software edition of Robertson’s Grammar links to many of the books that Robertson himself consulted, such as Burton’s Syntax of the Moods and Tenses of New Testament Greek and Deissmann’s Light from the Ancient East, many books previously published by Logos Bible Software have already been updated with links to Robertson’s Grammar. Just counting BDAG and BDF alone, more than 1,000 links to Robertson’s Grammar have already been tagged.
A.T. Robertson is also known for his well-loved study aid Word Pictures in the New Testament, which is available from Logos.
