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.
