Need Help: A good Greek New Testament?

    Definitely this one:

    http://www.amazon.com/Novum-Testamentum-Graece-Eberhard-Nestle/dp/3438051001

    (Not that expensive, and not the same as in TD's link which is the so-called Editio critica maior -- the price in TD's link being for only one small part of the NT; you don't need that I think).

    The exact same Greek edition is also available in the Greek New Testament of the United Bible Societies -- only the critical apparatus differs; there are less variants but easier to understand. (Mind that the 27th edition of Nestle-Aland corresponds to the fourth of GNT.)

    I think you were refering to the word-to-word translation in the KIT (that under the Greek text, not the NWT in the margin) which I agree is not that bad. However if you want to learn NT Greek you have to avoid interlinears (although you can read one of them additionally for easy practice).

    Narkissos: The turtleback binding at Amazon is definitely a better buy!

    My link pointed to several pages of results, and this is specifically what was intended:

    http://store.bibles.com/products//ABS_NEW/105499.aspx

    This is what I was required to buy (Although mine is not the 27th edition)

    Morocco: That's the CLT. --As controversial in it's own rite as the NWT, if not more so.

    I thought you meant the one on the first page as you mentioned "paperback" (which suited the critica maior).

    The price difference is incredible anyway...
