Each volume in the Exegetical Summaries series works through the
original text phrase by phrase. English equivalents are provided
for all Hebrew and Greek words, making this an excellent reference
for exegetes of all levels. Questions that occur to exegetes as
they study the text are stated and then answered by summarizing the
ways many scholars have interpreted the text. This information
should help translators or students in making their own exegetical
decisions. As a basis for discussion, a semi-literal translation of
the text is given. The first question to be answered is the meaning
of key words in context. Information from standard lexicons is
given and then translations of the word are cited from a dozen
major Bible versions and from commentaries that offer their own
translations of the text. Questions about the grammar and discourse
structure of the original languages are answered by summarizing the
views of many commentators. When exegetical disagreements appear in
the commentaries and versions, the various interpretations are
listed. This book is not intended to replace the commentaries that
are consulted. Rather than being a stand-alone commentary, this
book summarizes many important details of exegesis that should be
considered in studying the biblical text. Richard Blight has served
as a translation consultant with SIL since 1960. He completed the
translation of the New Testament for the Tenango Otomi people of
Mexico in 1975. In addition to authoring numerous articles and
books, he is the senior editor of the Exegetical Summaries series.
