I received the following from David Mckay. From the context I assume he
intended it for the List and am taking the liberty of forwarding it.

I don't want to argue with Louw and Nida, but...
But what about Hebrews 13:1
hH FILADELFIA MENETW
And why are all compounds of love formed on FILEW and not AGAPAW?

BTW, as the ARXH of this thread (via the theology list), may I say
thanks?
It has been very interesting. I have also appreciated the time people
took
to respond to my questions about which Bible versions they use, some
time
ago.
If "a day with the Lord is as a thousand years" and "a week is a long
time
in politics" then may I say that a few days seem like years ago in
email!
