Summary: It's a BIG help!
Comment: If you're learning Koine, this helps when your brain shuts down and you have absolutely NO clue what form that word is or what the lexical form is and your dictionary has failed you. With this, like Kubo Sakae's handy-dandy Reader's Greek-English Lexicon, you can look up book & verse! :D It gives you Greek idioms, too & sometimes commentary. :)
This book will make you want to cheer!

Summary: Delightful! Could become a crutch for verbs.
Comment: After I finished first-year NT Greek, I used this precious gem of a tool to read Colossians with significant understanding in about four hours! This is better than ANY of the computerized Greek NT study helps.
Use this tool with Zerwick's excellent little grammar book, to which it's keyed. In the few places where I've found that my biases differ from Zerwick's, his have always been easy enough to isolate and think about.
Use this tool for quick reading; don't use it for exegesis papers, and don't let it become a crutch for verb forms.

Summary: ESSENTIAL reference (side-by-side with GNT)
Comment: I took first-year and Intermediate Greek; we used the Lexical Aids for Students of New Testament Greek to get our vocabulary down to 10x word occurrences in the Greek New Testament. Yet doing this, you only cover roughly 99% of all words in the Greek New Testament. There are many, many words in the Greek New Testament that occur quite often, and it's good to have this book to look up what they mean. Alan Wong (one of the reviewers) also told me about this book, and it is fabulous!
Especially when reading Paul where there are many hapaxlegemons, it is essential to have a good dictionary around, and "Max and Mary" (as this is nicknamed) is very good to have around, especially that it is layed out verse-by-verse, parsed. I use this book quite regularly when I'm in the Gospel of Luke or in the Acts of the Apostles, or in the Epistles. (The book of Hebrews is another matter altogether!)
In addition, the book also covers a number of textual variants, grammatical constructs, and idioms, all very helpful. It is bound in vinyl (I think to be lightweight), so unfortunately, if you use this heavily, it may fall apart over the years.
It's worth it for the student and pastor who has learned a good amount of Greek grammar, and wants to do some Greek translation and exegesis, and is a great tool to have when beginning exegesis. In addition, I'd also recommend Daniel Wallace's Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics (which was our Intermediate Greek textbook), which explains a lot of the more advanced Greek constructs and grammar.
However, as a good working translation is important in exegesis, this book is invaluable.
