Following in the tradition of the
well-received Light on the Path, which was published in the early 1980s, More Light
on the Path provides a unique and useful resource for pastors and seminary students who
desire to keep their biblical language skills well-honed. Like the earlier volume, this
work consists of brief daily readings drawn from the Hebrew Bible and the Greek New
Testament. Grammatical notes and translation helps are provided with the text, and in most
instances, the reader will be able to work through difficult sections without having to
turn to lexicons or other reference works.
Several improvements have been made over the earlier work. To assist clergy who are
working through the liturgical calendar and are concerned to integrate their study time
with their sermon preparation, the texts are arranged thematically to reflect the church
year. Furthermore, each daily reading is accompanied by a brief prayer or meditation for
those who would like to utilize their reading of the biblical texts for a devotional time.
Clergy and seminarians, who are often pressed by ministerial duties and classes that do
not require the use of biblical languages, will welcome this useful volume that provides
them with the opportunity to maintain a daily schedule of study and prevent the erosion of
their language skills. |
