Manual Greek Lexicon of the New Testament. By Professor G.

Abbott-Smith. (Edinburgh : T. and T. Clark. 21s. net.)— This very useful work—compact, well printed and cheap—incor- porates the results obtained during the thirty years up to 1917 by students of the papyri, especially the late J. H. Moulton and Professor Milligan. The text used is. of course, that of Westcott and Hort. A notable feature of the book is the constant reference made to the Septuagint and to the Hebrew originals of the Greek words there used. Beginners will profit by the appendices of irregular verbs and of verbal forms that are not easily recognizable. We have repeatedly tested the Lexicon and have found it remarkably full and accurate. To students of the Greek Testament, who increase in number year by year, the book may be warmly commended. They will find it invaluable.
