Summary: My favorite Greek tool for last 12 years!
Review: More than any other Greek reference tool, this handy volume has been my steadfast companion to NT. While I still use other Greek reference books, this remains my most treasured book. In sum, these are the reasons why:
1. It is arranged according to the order of the New Testament (book by book, chapter by chapter, and verse by verse). Therefore, it is tremendously easy to use.
2. Every important verbs, nouns, prepositions are mentioned with accuracy and clarity. The definitions are given to understand the meaning of the word in the context.
3. It provides important cultural and historical background of the word used. This is important in exegetical work.
4. The typeset is easier to the eyes.
5. It is portable. This book is light and small, therefore you can carry it anywhere.NOTE:
(a)The new edition came out, but I quickly went back to this volume. The new edition is large, heavy, and less appealing.
(b) This book is out of print. So you might have to find it in used book sale. I was fortunate enough to find another one (via Amazon.com) since my old one is quickly falling apart.

Summary: a very handy and useful tool
Review: This book already has another revised edition but I have found this version to be very helpful when I am attempting an interpretation of a particular passage. Not only is it quite easy to locate the word in question because the book is arranged in the order of the New Testament, but you can also be sure that the definition of the word is the intended meaning for your specific phrase, and not just a general meaning that might not be appropriate. Knowing how to read Greek is definitely recommended, but you can get around that if necessary by simply looking up the word from your Bible in Strong's Concordance. A very handy and useful tool.

Summary: Searched for months...
Review: This little gem was hard to find, but absolutely worth it. Mine is approximately 7" x 5" with a flexible plastic binding, so it can go anywhere with me. I wish Zondervan would bring this version back into print (anybody listening in Grand Rapids?) The Linguistic Key is on a short list of tools I would recommend for any serious student of the New Testament.
