Sure:

Great book, based on his dissertation under the recently deceased James Aitken. I had the privilege of copyediting it for SBL Press (so if you find errors, I don't want to hear about!)

Re: BibleWorks Greek Lexicon by Gingrich

Thanks so much!

Re: BibleWorks Greek Lexicon by Gingrich

Jean,
