Rating: Summary: One of My Favorite Bible Study Tools Review: Berry's Interlinear is exemplary in it's offerings for Greek-English translation. Sometimes I read the interlinear instead of the KJV English because there may be a hint of meaning that the translaters may have overlooked. Features about the book I like and use often: 1. The Greek letters, pronunciation and use in the front of the book. 2. The Interlinear Bible itself. 3. The Greek dictionary in the back that defines many of the words, derivations of the Greek word and other scriptures it is used in. This is by far the best Bible Study tool to have near by when doing any type of study. Use it for subject studies, comparative studies (if you are looking at the NIV or other revisions), specific word studies (to understand the meaning and the context in Greek). There are very few KJV study tools that are not influenced by the revised text. This one is completely free of that influence and if you are a traditionalist this is definately for you.

Rating: Summary: The Most Economical Greek NT Review: To those who either study Greek, or simply are curious about the meanings of the Scriptures, this is an excellently informative tool of insight. At this low price, every Christian can afford his own Greek Bible! I would encourage all to take advantage of the opportunity.

Rating: Summary: Reliable and authentic text. Review: Useful and very brilliantly done inter-linear NT. Thank God that the text used is the Byzantine Textus Receptus used by the Holy Orthodox Church.
A most useful book for Orthodox Christians. One minus: this re-print is unfortunately not very clear.
Rating: Summary: Essential for any serious NT student. Review: Why? There are several interlinear NTs (AKA, "ponies") available, some with words "Strong-coded," and/or more "up-to-date" translations, while others, like Berry, stick with the KJV and the Textus Receptus Greek. At least one includes a rather extensive concordance. The advantage of this book is, as you can see at the bottom of the sample pages, they have included all the variations in the Greek texts that have been used as the bases for most of our newer translations. Therefore, when you see words added, omitted or changed in an English version, you can see from whence it came, assuming that it is not just a paraphrase, and determine whether the modification was justified, perhaps by the number of Greek texts that support the change, or by looking into the reliability of the texts involved. I find this help invaluable, especially since the marginal notes are usually vague about alternative renderings of a passage, if they are given at all. You many find that you may want to use other references too, such as a Strong's Concordance, and a Vine's Dictionary, although the included lexicon is not too shabby, but the extra effort is worth it.
