Bird, Lecturer in Theology, Ridley Melbourne College of Mission and MinistryPrecisely the tool needed by students of Greek who want to begin reading the Apostolic Fathers in the original.

Highly recommended. --D. A. Carson, Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity SchoolLike Philip who responded to the Ethiopian eunuch's question: "How can I understand this without some help?" Wallace has now come along side our own chariots, our own studies of these ancient sacred texts, and provided a guide to translation and understanding. Highly recommended! --Ben Witherington III, Amos Professor of the NT for Doctoral Studies, Asbury Theological SeminaryClearly conceived and easy to use,A Readers Lexicon of the Apostolic Fatherswill be an invaluable resource for beginning Greek students who are eager to read important Christian writings from just outside the New Testament. For anyone who has already learned the basics of New Testament Greek, I cannot recommend it highly enough. --Bart D. Ehrman, James A. Gray Professor, Department of Religious Studies, University of North Carolina at Chapel HillFor the first time a lexicon has been specifically designed to assist readers of the texts collectively known as the Apostolic Fathers.

The format and contents of the lexicon have been designed primarily as a tool that enables advanced students to widen their exposure to a greater range of early Christian Greek texts. --Paul Foster, Senior Lecturer in New Testament Language, Literature and Theology The School of Divinity, University of Edinburgh
