Reviews - What do our customers think?
Quick and Cheap  Mar 8, 2007
I thought I was in trouble when the campus book store was out of copies of the book I needed for my Survey of the New Testament class. I went to this site.com and to my relief they had exactly what I needed, but I needed the book in two days. I had express delivery and I had my book the next day. My purchase including the Express Mail delivery was still $40.00 cheaper than if I had purchased it from the book store. this site.com will be my source for all my purchases.
 
Poorly written  Aug 18, 2006
Although Gundry does well in this introductory book to give the reader pronunciation guides for names of persons, his syntax is incredibly poor. Because his sentence structure is lacking, his intended meaning is confusing and requires at times a multiple read in order to make sense of his sentence.
 
For a book packed with so much info there is no index  Mar 26, 2006
I am a bit disappointed that the index of this book is three pages long. There is a ton of info but you can't access it easily unless you want to spend countless hours flipping pages or trying to practice your photographic memory skills. The Glossary of Pronunciations is longer!! I realize this is a textbook but I have read other textbooks on the New Testament that were easier to digest. I do like the end of chapter study guides and discussion but you get 5 stars on the snooze factor for the format.
 
Great  Feb 19, 2006
This is probably the best one out there on the topic of a general survey of the New Testament. Plus buying it directly from this site I saved $15 instead of buying it from my school--& I got free shipping too!
 
I Just Can't See Myself Giving a "Textbook" 5 Stars . . .   Feb 18, 2006
As far as "textbooks" go, Gundry shows mercy on students by making a textbook that I actually look forward to reading. I have no problems with the book whatsoever but I just could not bring myself to give a "textbook" 5 stars. First, the pictures he uses -and there are a lot of them- really bring the New Testament-times scenery to life. Especially considering my Old Testament Survey class textbook was all black-and-white...uh, can you say bo-ring? Also, I like the way the chapters begin with study goals so that while you read the chapter, you always have in mind the main points to remember. The chapters all end with a list of the "People [and Terms] to Remember" which is a great study tool as well as the discussion questions. There's also a list of references "For Further Investigation" listed each chapter's end that comes in real handy when searching for sources for a research paper.
