in the early church the expectation of Jesus' return was fairly lively.
That is, until the passing of the years made it evident that it wasn't going
to happen soon.  So it is with the highly advertised and often discussed
BDAG...  its appearance has often been announced, yet it never has happened.
Like Thomas-- show me the prints in his hands and feet and the sword thrust
in his side and I will believe it.  But not until then.  If its out in
August I will sing amazing grace from the top of my house.  And film it, and
distribute it to all who wish to have a copy.

Best,

Jim
