Syntax of the Moods and Tenses in New Testament Greek

This first edition of this work appeared as a pamphlet in 1888. In issuing this revised and enlarged edition, it seems desirable to state the purpose which it is hoped this book will serve. Classified according to its intent, it belongs among the aids to the interpretation of the New Testament. It is designed to assist English-speaking students in the task of translating the Greek New Testament into English forms of thought and expression. Its main purpose is to contribute to the interpretation of the New Testament by the exposition of the functions of the verb in New Testament Greek, so far as those functions are expressed by the distinctions of mood and tense.
