Since its publication in 1852, George Wigram's Analytical Greek Lexicon has gone through a
host of revisions and titles as succeeding generations of Greek scholars have sought to
improve on it. Unfortunately, none of those revisions fully corrected the troublesome
parts that frustrate modern users: some entries are incompletely parsed, others
incorrectly identify the lexical form, others are inconsistent in identifying forms, and
still others are out of alphabetical order.
In The New Analytical Greek Lexicon, every entry has been rechecked and revised. In
addition to correcting the problems mentioned above, other improvements include:
misspellings have been corrected; unnecessary duplicate entries have been removed; textual
variants and alternative readings have been noted and identified; New Testament references
have been added for similar and identical forms having two or more parsing; references to
the numbering used in Strong's concordance have been added to facilitate study and
cross-referencing for the less technical user; and the introductory grammar section has
been updated.
The entire Lexicon has been retype set in a clear, modern typeface making it easier to
read. This accurate new edition will certainly become a standard reference for Greek
students and all those wishing to better understand the Greek New Testament.
