ROBINSON'S GREEK LEXICON TO THE NEW TESTAMENT, Condensed for Schools and Students; with a PARSING INDEX, containing the Words which occur, and showing their derivations.
This Lexicon will be found to be the fullest and most comprehensive Lexicon to the Greek Testament, which has yet been published, at a moderate price. It is compiled from Dr. Robinson's large work, but on comparison it will be found that nothing really essential has been omitted.
For the sake of the many private students who, not having had the benefit of a regular classical education, are pursuing their studies under great disadvantages, a Parsing Index is appended which gives the form of all the words as they occur in the Testament, with a reference to the word from which they are derived.
"Making use of the well-directed labour and well-earned fame of Dr. Robinson's 'Lexicon,' an English editor prepares this condensed work for the use of schools and students. Utility is the main object aimed at, so far as the young scholar is concerned, and therefore those parts of the original work are most fully given which are most essential to those who are only learners. Thus the inflexions of all verbs in any degree irregular appear in their orders, and in an appendix a copious parsing index is given.
"Dr. Robinson's Lexicon aimed at being also a concordance, and almost all passages of importance were referred to under each word; here there is only a selection of those references thought either most striking or most varied. In general, the editing of the work manifests judgment, and in some points, special care has been bestowed; as in the Explanations and Illustrations of the use of the Particles—a subject in which English-Greek Lexicons are usually deficient. For those who have only a slight knowledge of the Greek language, no Lexicon will be found more useful than 'Robinson's Lexicon Condensed.'"—Literary Gazette, Nov. 22. 1851.
