This new edition presents the most current Greek text, incorporating the textual changes documented in the Editio Critica Maior volumes on Acts (2017), the Gospel of Mark (2021), and Revelation (2025). As a result, it differs from the fifth edition in well over 100 places. The text is identical to that of the forthcoming 29th edition of the Novum Testamentum Graece (Nestle-Aland), scheduled for release in 2026.
The critical apparatus features clearly structured entries for all significant textual variants. A well-written and accessible introduction in English provides guidance for using this edition.
Editors: Hugh Houghton, Christos Karakolis, David Parker, Stephen Pisano, Holger Strutwolf, David Trobisch, and Klaus Wachtel.

[Logos] New gen of Textual Commentary for pre-order

A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament: A Companion to the 6th Edition of the United Bible Societies' Greek New Testament (UBS6)

by H. A. G. Houghton

Publisher: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft, 2025

ISBN: 9783438053312

Digital Logos Edition

Overview

This all-new edition of A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament uses the Greek text of the 29th edition of the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece (NA29) and the 6th edition of the United Bible Societies' Greek New Testament (UBS6) and comments on all apparatus entries of UBS6 in concise and comprehensible language. The edition is also suitable for use with the Nestle-Aland, as the Nestle-Aland also contains all the apparatus entries of UBS6 (with a different selection of witnesses). In addition, a detailed introduction provides key information on New Testament textual tradition, basic principles of textual criticism, and guidelines for using the UBS Greek New Testament. The author is a member of the editorial committee for NA29 and UBS6 and is therefore ideally suited to explain the decisions made by the committee in its preparation of these critical editions.

The 2025 version replaces Bruce M. Metzger’s A Textual Commentary on the Greek New Testament, which has been regarded as the standard work for decades but is now outdated in terms of research history.

Authoritative commentary on the text of the Greek New Testament.
Each apparatus entry in the 6th edition of the Greek New Testament is commented on.
Can also be used with “Nestle-Aland.”
With a comprehensive and informative introduction.

A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, 3rd ed. (BDAG)

BDAG Lexicon Overview

Described as an "invaluable reference work" (Classical Philology) and "a tool indispensable for the study of early Christian literature" (Religious Studies Review) in its previous edition, this new updated American edition of Walter Bauer's Wörterbuch zu den Schriften des Neuen Testaments builds on its predecessor's staggering deposit of extraordinary erudition relating to Greek literature from all periods. Including entries for many more words, the new edition also lists more than 25,000 additional references to classical, intertestamental, early Christian, and modern literature.

A Comprehensive New Testament Lexicon

Perhaps the single most important lexical innovation of Danker's edition is its inclusion of extended definitions for Greek terms. For instance, a key meaning of episkopos was defined in the second American edition as overseer; Danker defines it as "one who has the responsibility of safeguarding or seeing to it that something is done in the correct way, guardian." Such extended definitions give a fuller sense of the word in question, which will help avoid both anachronisms and confusion among users of the lexicon who may not be native speakers of English.

Thanks to Frederick W. Danker's broad knowledge of Greco–Roman literature, as well as papyri and epigraphs, the new BDAG lexicon provides a more panoramic view of the world of Jesus and the New Testament. It incorporates new research, new information, and analyses while rendering translations into contemporary English. What is more, the Logos Bible Software version of this resource offers unprecedented search capabilities customized to this reference work. Can you continue doing Biblical study without the BDAG lexicon online?

Students using A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament (BDAG) will enjoy the extended definitions for Greek terms, extensive cross-referencing, and more than 25,000 additional references to classical, intertestamental, early Christian, and modern literature that will provide incredible depth to any word study. With the BDAG lexicon, readers can look up Greek words in the New Testament or almost any other Greek extra-biblical text.

Common Features in the BDAG

The most common features under each entry include the formal equivalent, also called "gloss"—the Greek word's English equivalent. It also contains an extended definition that explains the concept further. Then BDAG offers a suggested translation of a given phrase, multiple glosses/definitions as needed, and every New Testament occurrence of that Greek word categorized under what the editors interpret as the appropriate definition.

Anyone wanting to do deep study of the New Testament or any other early Christian literature—students, teachers, and pastors alike—will want A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament (BDAG) on their digital bookshelf. BDAG brings the study of the world of Jesus and the New Testament to another level.

Frederick W. Danker (1920–2012) was professor emeritus of the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago and an ordained minister best known for his revision of the 1953 Bauer-Arndt-Gingrich Greek-English lexicon (BDAG), and is considered by many to be one of the great scholars of the twentieth century. Danker received his PhD from the University of Chicago, and in addition to holding pastorates in various parishes, he taught New Testament for 34 years until he retired in 1988.

Danker was a prolific writer. He authored everything from lexicons to books to articles in academic journals to publications in newspapers and popular magazines. He had the keen ability to bridge academic and general interests and was a favorite public lecturer on unique topics like the politics of the Scriptures and Jewish-Christian relations.

In addition to A Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, 3rd ed. (BDAG), Danker authored Multipurpose Tools for Bible Study and the The Concise Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament, Jesus and the New Age: A Commentary on St. Luke's Gospel, and The Kingdom in Action, among many others.

Walter Bauer (1877–1960) was a German theologian and scholar of the development of the early Christian churches. He studied theology at Marburg, Strassburg, and Berlin universities and later taught at Breslau and Göttingen. His Greek lexicon is among the most highly respected dictionaries of biblical Greek. His most famous and influential work is his 1934 book Rechtgläubigkeit und Ketzerei im ältesten Christentum, Orthodoxy and Heresy in Early Christianity. He believed early Christianity was diverse theologically and that there were numerous "christianities"—all in competition to be the one authentic Christianity, of which one group won and became known as "orthodoxy."
