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."
