So I need to piece together whatever I can in an effort to stay active in technical work with the Greek New Testament. I would love to distribute the diagrams freely, but I was downsized out of my longtime teaching position at Bob Jones University Seminary this past May, and I suspect that my financial future for the next decade or so until retirement is likely to involve some scrambling for income in a variety of ways.
I imagine that a price much over $40 would likely diminish overall revenue, so it seems likely to me that the price will be within that range. GBS royalties are significant, so I don't foresee a price under the $20 point.
I hope that I'll be ready to release perhaps by late this year or early next. I've posted a web site at to keep interested parties informed of progress. So, unless GBS has reasons to object to distribution in that format (I'm awaiting response on that point), it's the likely next step.

A web-based presentation would certainly be possible, as well as some sort of standalone app, but these approaches are beyond my development abilities, and I am not in a position to underwrite the cost of professional development in such forms. So the only simple path forward I can see is via PDF. The 2,000 pages of diagrams would make an ebook file impractically large. I find that the e-book format does not support graphics vectors, only bitmaps.
So I think the likelihood of the re-issue of these diagrams has risen to a level that justifies public mention-but no absolute promises just yet.ĭetermining the best form for the diagrams to take on has proven challenging. Discussions with GBS (the copyright holder of the Nestle-Aland text that the diagrams use) seem clearly to portend agreeable royalty terms.

With the closure of BibleWorks software last summer, I have been granted joint rights to my GNT sentence diagrams (Reed-Kellogg style) for publication purposes.
