Simon Wong's book on the verbs in the Pauline corpus should be out soon
from Peter Lang. It treats the complements of (all?) the verbs in the
Pauline letters. It will be a valuable addition to the bibliography of
anyone working with New Testament Greek.
Is Simon still on this list? If you're out there, perhaps you could tell us
a little about the book.
