That sounds like a really helpful work! Do you know yet which electronic formats it will be available in?

I will probable first make a pdf, and then decide on which electronic formats will best suit it. Maybe json or just a txt file.

Here is my first cut towards my “Analytical Lexicon/Concordance of the New Testament”. There are other analytical lexicons and other concordances, but I don’t know of any resource that combines the two. It is also unique in that it is not limited to just one critical text, but contains the words from all the major critical texts and manuscripts. It also has a parsing system that is more detailed than the others. And best of all, when it is ready, it will be free and released under an open license.

I still have to write an introduction for it, but you can probably figure out the format. The superscript shows where a word is singular at a particular location in a manuscript (thus the reader will know not to waste time trying to find it in a critical text). I have attached the first part of it and am looking for feedback. One thing I am wondering is if it is too detailed. Any comments?

Very impressive! I'd note that typically verse lists use a semicolon when the chapter changes.
SBL Handbook of Style wrote:In biblical references, a colon normally separates chapters and verses, a comma and a letter
space separate verse designations within a chapter, and a semicolon followed by a letter space
separates references to different chapters (or chapters and verses). Thus: Isa 1:8; 5:1-7, 10;
Jer 2:21

I like it, and will look forward to using it. Do you have a website? I'd be happy to include a link to it on my blog's Resources page.

Maybe your next project can be an analytical lexicon/concordance covering the Septuagint and Apostolic Fathers. That would be very useful as well.

It‘s great!

I often use the „Analytical Greek Lexicon“ of Bagster and the „Analytical Lexicon to the Septuagint“ (Taylor). Yours has the advantage being an Index with all instances of the form, even the forms are split, when the instances have different gender (γενομενων).

I don‘t think, you are over-detailing.

The only analytical lexicon/dictionary covering LXX/NT I know of, is the Greek-Dutch Dictionary of Johan Murre: Disadvantage for English-speakers: it is in dutch!



I am looking forward to the complete work.

I finally got around to it and it took a lot longer than I thought, but my latest offering from the Center for New Testament Restoration, “The Analytical Lexicon and Concordance of the Greek New Testament”, was published by GlossaHouse and is now available at https://glossahouse.com/products/the-an ... -testament. As always, I do not take any profit from the sale of the book and it is priced to only cover the publisher’s costs as a convenience to those who want a hard copy. You can also get it from other retailers like Amazon, but it is more expensive there because the publisher has to pay more for the distribution package. From the blurb on the book cover, “The Analytical Lexicon and Concordance of the Greek New Testament represents a new category of biblical resources based on new advanced scholarship. It combines the best features of an analytical lexicon with a concordance, providing better formatting, improved categories, and more comprehensive data, including the variant words from all the earliest manuscripts up to AD 400. It is also released under an open license to better serve the needs of the global church.” I have included a page so you can see what the format looks like. The verses with superscripts indicate where the word occurs in singular variants, so you don’t waste time trying to find them in a critical text.

Congratulations! Does it include Nomina Sacra?

Tell me about the open license. Can the text be downloaded from somewhere?

No Nomina Sacra. Its CC BY-SA. I will probably put it online in some form in a few weeks. On the todo list.
