Harry Jones:
Clay could you please point out the specific places in Machen that make it a
fossil? I'm just curious.

Brent,
Well stated. Machen is a fossil. Needs to be put in a museum where it
belongs.
Problem with most of the more recent works is they are fossils with more
recent publishing dates. Mounce included.
Someone needs to do what NT Greek what Bryan Rocine did with his biblical
Hebrew primer, break out of the linguistic dark ages.
