A classic of textual commentary
Rating: 
I'd been wanting this book for quite some time; when it comes to familiarity with the text of the New Testament, you can't beat Metzger. This book does not disappoint. As far as I can tell, just about any textual issue the average Bible reader would be interested in is covered in this amazing little book. There is an awful lot of information packed into this small tome.
It's all Greek to me
Rating:
I really love reading this. Checking passages from my devos to see if there is any kind of issue with the translation. A basic knowledge of ancient Greek should be sufficient for using this resource.

The First Step in Biblical Interpretation
Rating:
This text is clear and concise. Metzger has been the preeminent voice in New Testament textual criticism for decades, yet gives a balanced view of the evidence for each variant. His passing leaves a void is the discipline. The text is necessarily brief, and this adds to it's accessibility and appeal. It is indispensable to any serious student of God's Word, because it contains so much information which other commentaries in recent generations have neglected and to which previous generation lacked access. It should rest opened next to your New Testament whenever the study of a passage begins. Before we do what Scripture requires, we must know what Scripture means, before we can know what it means we must understand what is written, before we can understand what is written we must determine what the authors originally wrote. This is what this text helps us determine.
