Expensive Book

C'mon! This book is only 240 pages but it costs over $100??? What's up with that? I paid $125 for my BDAG, but that's BDAG, the nearly indispensable, most reputable and well researched Greek lexicon on the market (as far as I know). Plus it's over 1000 pages!

I found out about this book on Larry Hurtado's blog and am very interested in the subject of Jesus' cry on the cross but I just don't think it's worth that much. Yes, it is a "scholarly" work but give me a break! 

So much for scholarship being available for the common folk. I suppose these kinds of works are only intended for libraries.
