[Judith Hall Simon · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read the 1974 hardcover edition published by The Westminster Press. To me this book is quite scholarly in its prolific references to ancient literature. The author does a good job in explaining the Greek meanings behind commonly used New Testament words. The index is excellent in that it cross references the words he discusses to where they are commented on in his series The Daily Study Bible.

Very interesting, though more of a dip into than a straight read through.
