I suppose most of the group are familiar with the writings of Leon Morris.
One outstanding work is his "Studies in the Fourth Gospel" wherein he
provides a lengthy study of the verbal variety in the Gospel of John. It is
priceless. I believe he demolishes the efforts to maintain distinctions between
AGAPAW and FILEW in Jn. 21.
After studying his material and examining it afresh, I had to throw away
several "good" sermon outlines! I hope others will do that same.
Unfortunately, the NIV translators (and NAS marginal notes) continue reinforcing this
"faux pas."
