Luke: A Handbook on the Greek Text

Baylor Handbook on the Greek New Testament

by Mikeal C. Parsons, Martin M. Culy, Joshua J. Stigall

This new volume in the popular handbook series provides students with a comprehensive guide through the Greek text of the Gospel of Luke. Together Culy, Parsons, and Stigall explain the text's critical, lexical, grammatical, and linguistic aspects while revealing its carefully crafted narrative style. In all, they show the author of Luke to be a master communicator, well at home within the Greek biographical tradition.

Reviews

[Michael Beck · Rating 5 out of 5]

a great resource for the preacher or teacher who has facility with Koine Greek. This whole series is helpful since it sticks to the grammar and syntax of the text and does not (like so many larger commentaries) drift into endless discussions of source criticism of the Gospels.
