5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent study tools, November 23, 1999

By	Debbie Swanson (Sandpoint, Idaho) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Complete Word Study New Testament (Word Study Series) (Hardcover)

As a leader of Precept Bible studies, I have found these tools to be extremely helpful. Being Greek himself, Spiro has much to offer in the correct interpreting of Gods Word. His insights to the culture and meaning of words has proven helpful and enlightening. These books are user friendly, while being fully detailed and in depth. More than once I have found out the real meaning of a word in the Greek that increased my faith and inticed my appetite to study more in depth more often. Much needed tools for any serious Bible student. I would highly recommend all the Zodhiates reference books. Get them all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice to have!, July 9, 2005

By	William Steck "Bill" (Dearborn) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Complete Word Study New Testament (Word Study Series) (Hardcover)

I'm not sure if this is the absolute best wordstudy NT on the market, but I will say that it is a handy book to have.

The Strong's numbers are included with the text which makes it easy to look up the corresponding Greek words. There is also a modest Greek dictionary/lexicon in the back.

Zodhiates does a good job of shedding some light on those harder to understand verses. The text is KJV.

I'm happy that I purchased this book. Of the books in my library, it tends to be pulled off the shelf more often than many others.

5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable, September 27, 2006

By	BSXX - See all my reviews

This is the study book I use most when reading the Bible. I use it more than all my commentaries and other dictionaries combined. It is very handy. The greek concordance in the back is probably my favorite part of the Bible. Outstanding resource.

There is nothing like having a convenient and usable reference to find the Greek words and their Greek meaning, and then looking at the Greek concordance in the back to see how that particular greek word is translated elsewhere in the New Testament. I like to have it right beside me any time any time I am reading the Bible.

Words like "power", "world", "do" and many others are all used to translate different Greek words. For example, Romans 7:15 has "do" 3 times.....it is 3 different greek words! The same for verses 7:16ff!

The word "power" translates the gr. exousia and dunamis, both translated "power" most of the time. They have different meanings and it is good to know which gr. word is being used. You can look it up in the Zodhiates text in about 15 seconds. There are many more instances of words like this.

KEY POINT: You do not have to be fluent or even moderately versed in Biblical Greek to learn with this reference, the book provides anyone all the information they need to get some real insight into the Biblical text without smothering you in advanced Greek language studies.
