For those stumbled over the editorial lapse in the above, here is a  
cleaned up version:

This falls into the same category with the translation exercises  
which are so endlessly popular. Every time someone offers a "new  
rendering" in English of some Greek or Hebrew text, I wonder what it  
is they are trying to accomplish.

BTW, I have heard rumors from a well placed source that some greek  
professors are being silently won over to Randall Buth's methodology  
and making plans ...

This would be one way to liberate the study of greek from enslavement  
to English.
