I saw advertised just yesterday in the newest CBD Academic Catalog
(Winter/Spring 1998) the following "must have" work: Moulton & Milligan's
_Vocabulary of the Greek Testament_ is in print again and sells for $24.95.
Another lexicon worth investing in is the Louw-Nida _Greek-English Lexicon
of the NT: Based on Semantic Domains_ (2d ed.), CBD price $49.95. Yet
another reference work that I would highly recommend is the _Exegetical
Dictionary of the NT_ (EDNT; I cannot recall the editors of this work since
I do not have it handy just now, and it does not appear to be available via
CBD).

Hope this helps.
