There are finally American sources for the revised 2d ed. of the
Lust/Eynikel LXX lexicon. This is the first time that I've seen any American
distributor list this item. (It's been available in Germany since at least
last summer.)
Dove Books:
Lust, J; E Eynikel, K Huspie
Greek - English Lexicon of the Septuagint
Publisher: American Bible Society
Available in Hardcover ISBN: 3438051249 List: $119.99 - Dove: $90.99
There is also a listing on Eisenbrauns' site, but as "not yet published":
Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint, Revised Edition
Edited by J. Lust, Erik Eynikel, and K. Hauspie
American Bible Society
Hard cover, List Price: $119.99 Your Price: $101.99/ea.
The price is way to high, but at least it can be obtained without
negotiating a web page all in German and waiting 6 weeks for it to be
shipped from the German Bible Society (even though it is [or at least was]
quite a bit cheaper there). Libraries should order this edition, as should
those who do a lot of work in the LXX. For others, it depends on your
budget! The list price is nearly equal to BDAG, but one doesn't get as much
info for this money. But still, it's the only complete lexicon of the LXX in
print.
Now, does anyone know if Peeters has released the new revision of Muraoka
yet? ("A Greek-English Lexicon of the Septuagint. Chiefly of the Pentateuch
and the Twelve Prophets" ISBN 90-429-1182-4) It was listed for Dec. 2002,
but I haven't heard that it has actually shipped yet. (It hadn't yet as of
late last spring.) The Peeters URL is
