Designed as a supplement to Metzger’s Lexical Aids, this little book arranges selected NT vocabulary both by word frequency and cognates. One can thus learn, for example, akoē (24X), eisakouō (5X), hypakouō (21X), and hypakoē (15X) all at the same time as one learns akouō (430X) as representative of a family with one or more words occurring 400 or more times. The result is not nearly as comprehensive in mastery of vocabulary as if one learned all of Metzger, but the arrangement suggests that the words which are learned will be memorized faster and be retained longer. Front- and end-matter include brief principles for Greek word-building and charts of principal parts and numbers.
