Daniel B. Wallace's groundbreaking books Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics: An Exegetical Syntax of the New Testament and Basics of New Testament Syntax have become the standard textbooks among colleges and seminaries for teaching New Testament Greek syntax. This workbook, designed to accompany both books, presents a dynamic approach to learning Greek syntax. Instead of simply learning syntax in single-verse snippets, students are exposed to all of the major syntactical categories in exegetically and theologically significant passages.

Syntax Passages
John 1:6–14
Background
The Gospel of John opens with a prologue (1:1–18) in which, like Mark’s Gospel, there is no genealogy and no birth narrative. But the reason for this in the Fourth Gospel is that the Son of God has always existed and, in fact, has created all things (1:1–5). His incarnation is mentioned from the divine perspective of why he came to earth (1:6–18), rather than from the human perspective of those who first beheld a newborn babe and wondered what he would become. From the outset, then, John’s Gospel presents Jesus as God’s Son—in fact, as God in the flesh. Our passage begins by introducing Jesus’ forerunner, John the Baptist, who testifies about “the light.”
