In addition to reflecting the complete range of semantic uses and nuances, it identifies the part of speech, lists cognate key words, notes principal parts for each verb, and cites the NT reference for each word used only once. Review: Perfect size and just enough information - This helped so much will I was taking my in person Ancient Greek classes. I bought a bigger one for at home, but this is the perfect size to take to class. Review: The better (albeit more expensive) of two modern dictionaries. - New Testament Greek dictionaries come in two very different flavors. On the one hand, there are the huge, multi-volume theological dictionaries, generally translated from German, the language of the very largest community of New Testament scholars. On the other, there is the thin, almost pocket-sized dictionary of only those Greek words which appeared in the New Testament, with only the scantest lexicological information. I have used two of these. First, the lovely leather-bound dictionary by Barclay M. Newman, Jr. and published by the United Bible Societies. The second, slightly larger volume published by the Cambridge University Press, is prepared by Warren C. Trenchard. Both books are dedicated exclusively to Greek to English, giving all Greek words in the original Greek script we encountered when we studied college math. As someone with aging eyes, I can say that both are easy to read without extra magnification. If I were to give the edge to either, I suspect the slimmer Newman dictionary may be infinitesimally clearer. Both books have virtually identical coverage of words, with Trenchard having more words on a page and fewer pages, while Newman's pages are thinner, with a correspondingly higher risk of skipping over or tearing pages. The lexical information provided on all words is very similar; however Trenchard gives better information on the parts of speech and tenses of verb forms. Neither book offers any assistance with Greek grammar. I am quite surprised also that neither book even has a copy of the Greek alphabet in the book. Both books also offer occasional references to passages in the NT to help understand a word's context, but this is only with about 20% of the words in Newman and about 35% of the words in Trenchard. The one great difference between the two dictionaries lies in Trenchard's providing a count of the number of times each word appears in the NT. This is a small but valuable asset, as when I tried to find a word in one of the mammoth theological dictionaries, and discovered that it occurs but twice in the NT, giving me some reassurance that in the greater scheme of things, this word is relatively unimportant. So, if I were going on a trip, I would pack the attractive and thin Newman, but use the more informative Trenchard for day to day work. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #365,073 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #364 in Christian Bible Language Studies #448 in Religious Studies (Books) #711 in Foreign Dictionaries & Thesauruses | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 61 Reviews | ## Images ![A Concise Dictionary of New Testament Greek - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61yK-uav3KL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect size and just enough information *by B***N on June 9, 2026* This helped so much will I was taking my in person Ancient Greek classes.

Some books are smudged and unreadable. This book is very good quality, and it is necessary while learning Koine Greek. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/151640054-a-concise-dictionary-of-new-testament-greek](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/151640054-a-concise-dictionary-of-new-testament-greek) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
