About the Author

J. Harold Greenlee (A.B., Asbury College, B.D., Asbury Theological Seminary, M.A., University of Kentucky) received the Ph.D. in Biblical and Patristic Greek from Harvard University, and was a Senior Fulbright Fellow at Oxford University in 1950-51. He was Professor of New Testament Greek at Asbury Theological Seminary from 1944 to 1965, and wrote this grammar during his tenure there. It has been translated into five additional languages. He and his wife Ruth were missionaries with One Mission Society (originally the Oriental Missionary Society) since 1969, while also serving as an international translation consultant for Wycliffe Bible Translators. He is the author of fourteen books and over 150 published articles, mainly dealing with New Testament Greek grammar, exegesis, and textual criticism. It is a pleasure for First Fruits Press to make this book globally available electronically for free, in order to encourage students of the Bible to explore the Greek text of scripture in more detail and further their ministry in spreading the message of Jesus Christ throughout the world.
