Book excerpt: This collection brings together into one volume papers first delivered in the Section on Biblical Greek Language and Linguistics at the Society of Biblical Literature annual meetings in 1992 and 1993. Part I, on discourse analysis, includes an introductory survey of the field, followed by three major papers and two responses. Each author uses his particular model of discourse analysis to analyse the book of Philippians, paying particular attention to the question of unity. Part 2, on other topics in biblical Greek, includes a probing introduction on the nature of language and five papers on a range of other topics, including the language of Paul, the word Ýsee file for Greek letters ̈ in the church fathers, the syntax of 1 Tim. 2.12, ÝGreek ̈ in Acts 6.1, and ÝGreek ̈ in Rom. 4.1.
