How-To Manuals
Many people remember vaguely from
their English high school courses that a teacher might have taught
sentence diagramming. But what motivation was there to
learn? Now, many years later, comes the motivation: you have
learned New Testament Greek, and have heard or seen how important it is
to diagram, but to whom do you go to now? The works below give
seminal and valuable methodological procedures for diagramming the Greek
New Testament.

Principles
and Practice of Greek Exegesis
by John Grassmick
By far this is the most
authoritative and consulted work on the principles and practice for
diagramming the Greek New Testament. Rightfully so, Professor
Grassmick views diagramming as an integral part in the process of
properly interpreting any New Testament text. The entire Epistle to the
Colossians is diagrammed (UBS3) with grammatical notes as illustrative
of the diagramming procedure in New Testament biblical exegesis.

An Intermediate
Guide to Greek Diagramming
by Eric Sowell
An Intermediate Guide to Greek Diagramming
by Eric Sowell helps to fill the void for those
interested in diagramming the Greek New
Testament beyond the basics. This is a
very helpful manual that approaches diagramming
in the same style which Dr. John Grassmick
proposes in
Principles and Practice of Greek Exegesis
(Dallas Theological Seminary). This manual
is free to download and only available in PDF. |

Diagramming
The Greek New Testament
by
Richard P. Belcher
This is an introductory work to
New Testament Greek diagramming. It's usefulness is in its
comparative ease of use and differing artful presentations from the
"Grassmick" model above.

Diagrammatical
Analysis
by Lee L. Kantenwein
In some respects, this volume will
be the most helpful to the newcomer to Greek diagramming. Diagrammatical
Analysis illustrates first diagrammatical analysis in English, and
then from the corresponding Greek text. The methodology of the
author builds from the simple sentence, showing how different parts of
speech, phrases and clauses relate to it. However, its
introductory approach may not suffice for those who are already
proficient in New Testament Greek. This is the only manual
discovered thus far that also illustrates Hebrew diagramming.
