Compendious Syriac Grammar
Description:
An affordable facsimile reprint of the 1904 classic. Being a book over a century old, Noldeke's exhaustive study is easy to use and accurate, and has never been supplanted. Delve deeply into the beautiful Syriac Aramaic language in which the original New Testament was written. After you learn basics such as alphabet and pronunciation, what you'll need to go further and attain fluency in the Aramaic is this book, a good lexicon like Jennings' or Williams', a copy of the Aramaic Scriptures, and your zeal for understanding said Scriptures in their purity.
