Multipurpose Tools for Bible Study

Currents in Theology and Mission,  Oct, 2004  by Ralph W. Klein

Multipurpose Tools for Bible Study. By Frederick W. Danker (Fortress, $26). First published more than forty years ago, this wonderful tool has been brought up to date for this revised and expanded edition by D., emeritus professor of New Testament at LSTC. Here one finds bibliography on concordances, grammars, and lexicons (without reporting the latest, vastly improved edition of the Bauer-Danker-Arndt-Gingrich lexicon!), the history of the Hebrew and Greek texts, and how to use concordances, Bible dictionaries, modern versions, and commentaries to full advantage.

D.'s sprightly prose ("the advance troops in the battle for truth are always those who take nothing for granted") makes for a really enjoyable foray into the hard data of biblical study. Fortress has enhanced this volume by including a CD-Rom version with it. RWK
