EPHESIANS: the Source New Testament with Extensive Notes on Greek Word Meaning

Book excerpt: This is Ephesians from The Source New Testament with Extensive Notes on Greek Word Meaning. It contains abundant and detailed documentation for the meaning of hundreds of Greek words which appear in the New Testament. The Source is the only New Testament translation based on word meaning evidence from the recently discovered papyri and inscriptions. For centuries, translators had to guess the meaning of hundreds of New Testament words. After 1976, huge numbers of papyri and inscriptions were discovered containing these New Testament words in everyday documentation thus revealing their meaning. The Source is the only New Testament translation by a Classical Greek scholar (rather than theologian) and not financed or translated by a committee of a specific denomination.
