Novum Testamentum Graece With Dictionary: Nestle-Aland (Ancient Greek Edition)

I was concerned about buying this from Amazon because for some reason Amazon says that this book only has 232 pages. I assure you, it has 890 pages of Biblical text and appendices. It has 220 pages of dictionary (which is a really good condensed dictionary that not only gives the definition, but the root word as well). Totaling 1110 pages.The format of the text and critical apparatus is very similar to the NA27. The base text is only changed (if my research is correct) in the catholic epistles.The bright yellow part that you see on the cover is a "half" dust-jacket. It can be removed. Thus, if you're judging a book by its cover, it looks a lot like NA27.I also noticed that the NA28 critical apparatus does not include information on the subscriptio-s found at the end of each epistle. This information was included in the critical apparatus of NA27. (Realistically, this will affect very few people)

Do not buy if you think this is a nice leather-bound edition. It is not black either. This is the standard blue imitation leather that you can purchase anywhere. No problem with the text, but completely false advertising on the part of Amazon.

1) Name & description should be changed to the publisher's official description of this book: "Flexisoft edition with blue imitation leather cover..." Like many have said, _not_ leather.2) If deciding between this & the UBS 5th edition, choose based on what you'll use the book for. I wanted the critical apparatus to see which manuscripts supported which variants (usually to see which were oldest). If you want that, choose this book, the NA 28th ed., _not_ the UBS 5th. The UBS 4th had many, many variants & manuscripts listed, but the UBS 5th does not! If you are buying one to read it more than study it, go w/ the UBS 5th Readers Edition.

The dean of biblical interpretation where I went to seminary considers this Greek NT as close as one can get to the original. As I heard a NT Greek prof say, "this is the NT, everything else is translation."

The Nestle-Aland editions of the GNT are, in my opinion, the best editions available for reading and studying the text as well as for scholarly research in textual criticism. I've used the 26th, 27th, and now the 28th editions. This edition includes the addition of the new Editio Critica Major (ECM) under the guidance of Barbara Aland. The ECM in the textual apparatus is a new, interesting and informative tool for evaluating variants. I highly recommend this edition for anyone learning NT Greek as well as for seasoned scholars.

I love this version of the NA text. My favorite part is the built in dictionary. The only two things I would prefer (but are both currently unavailable) is that this edition with the dictionary actually come in black as advertised. The edition I received is blue, but no big deal, the content is more important and is excellent. The second thing is I wish they made the large print version WITH dictionary. You can only purchase either the small font edition with the dictionary (the product I am reviewing), or opt for a large print version but it doesn't have a dictionary. The size is handy though as I am on the go all the time and its smaller size makes it more portable. The font is also much better than previous versions I have had. Overall this is an excellent product and I would highly recommend it!

the book was sent on time and arrived when stated. It is fine , excellent , condition and the cover is great. I was impressed and happy to have gotten it.

There might be several Greek versions in the market. But get this book, if you are a theological student or a theologian-pastor. Be a sincere servant carrying the Word of the Lord with the original scripts, and especially with this version of Greek New Testament. No hesitate getting this book, if you need a Greek version!

Did not come in black as advertised. However, the content itself is fantastic and is definitely a must-have for serious students of the Bible who wish to exegete Scripture in a faithful and consistent manner.

As described. Good book.
