The Gospel of Mark, widely assumed to be the earliest narrative of Jesus’s life and the least explicit in terms of Christology, has long served as a worktable for the discovery of Christian origins and developing theologies. Christology in Mark’s Gospel: Four Views brings together key voices in conversation in order to offer a clear entry point into early Christians’ understanding of Jesus’s identity: Sandra Huebenthal (Suspended Christology), Larry W. Hurtado (Mark’s Presentation of Jesus; with rejoinder by Chris Keith), J. R. Daniel Kirk (Narrative Christology of a Suffering King), and Adam Winn (Jesus as the YHWH of Israel in the Gospel of Mark).

Biblical Greek Vocabulary in Context by Miles V. Van Pelt and Katharine C. Van Pelt is designed to reinforce a student’s basic Greek vocabulary by presenting words that occur twenty-five times or more in the context of the Greek New Testament.
Van Pelt and Van Pelt collate all 513 of these Greek words into approximately 200 key biblical verses and/or verse fragments to help students practice reading them in their literary context and thus improve their Greek vocabulary retention. Rather than rote memorization, Van Pelt and Van Pelt’s approach teaches word meaning through each word’s naturally occurring context—the way people naturally learn languages.
The book includes two primary sections: 1. The first section provides room for students to write their own glosses of the biblical verse and to parse as they feel necessary.
An English translation is also provided, and any term that appears less than twenty-five times is glossed. 2. The second section of the book provides the same biblical verses from the first section but with minimal room to write glosses and parse and without an English translation for aid. The end of the book includes a Greek-English lexicon of all the words occurring twenty-five times or more in the Greek New Testament.

Christopher A. Beetham, Editor
The Concise New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology and Exegesis (CNIDNTTE) by Christopher A. Beetham is a significant resource for those looking for a quick-reference guide to aid in exegesis and interpretation. It retains all the essentials of the monumental and magisterial New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology and Exegesis edited by Moisés Silva, bringing together its most important elements into one accessible volume. It preserves the most relevant and valuable information needed for study of the Greek words used in the New Testament—its texts, themes, and theology. This important tool offers the following features:
• All the nearly 800 entries covering over 3,000 Greek words found in the full edition are included and presented in the same order and arrangement • The volume retains approximately 60 percent of the original edition, with the emphasis now on synchronic word study and usage in the Greek Old
Testament, extrabiblical Second Temple literature, and especially the New
Testament
• The unique arrangement according to Greek words and use of English concepts is retained from the full edition and allows all users to access
Greek terms regardless of their level of competence in Greek • This edition retains the significant semantic-domain tool that directs the reader to all the Greek words that have something to do with a particular
English word or concept. For example, under the topic of “Resurrection,” there is a list of four Greek words that are related to that theme. The volume is thus an especially valuable tool for the study of themes and concepts in the
New Testament
The Concise New International Dictionary of New Testament Theology and Exegesis is the ideal tool for pastors, Bible teachers, students, and scholars engaging in exegesis. It is packed with the information needed to study the New Testament.
