About This Book

A compact Greek–English lexicon aimed at New Testament readers, presenting alphabetically arranged entries of the Greek words found in the New Testament, with definitions, grammatical forms, textual variants, and citations from Septuagint and other Greek texts; it explains semantic ranges, idiomatic uses tied to Hebrew backgrounds, and offers a supplementary section with additional words and forms from various critical editions; a preface outlines the rationale for focusing on New Testament vocabulary and guidance for students learning sufficient Greek for exegesis; the work emphasizes clarity, portability, and practical help in interpreting difficult words and tracing their usage across sources.
