Applying corpus linguistics techniques to Hellenistic Greek, particularly the Greek of the New Testament, this groundbreaking work by O'Donnell explores how computer processing of a sizable electronic corpus can enhance understanding of the language. Through multiple worked examples, the author demonstrates three specific areas where these methods can deepen appreciation and insight into the nuances of Hellenistic Greek.

Biblical and Ancient Greek Linguistics (BAGL) is an international journal that exists to further the application of modern linguistics to the study of Ancient and Biblical Greek, with a particular focus on the analysis of texts, including but not restricted to the Greek New Testament. The journal is hosted by McMaster Divinity College and works in conjunction with its Centre for Biblical Linguistics, Translation and Exegesis, and the OpenText.org organization (www.opentext.org) in the sponsoring of conferences and symposia open to scholars and students working in Greek linguistics who are interested in contributing to advancing the discussion and methods of the field of research. BAGL is a refereed on-line and print journal dedicated to distributing the results of significant research in the area of linguistic theory and application to biblical and ancient Greek, and is open to all scholars, not just those connected to the Centre and the OpenText.org project.
