KURIE ELEHSON ME I John 2:2 – hHMETERWN DE MONON This is probably a Greek 101 question, so forgive me for itssimplicity. (I hope this hasn’t been asked a hundred times!)In I John 2:2 we have KAI AUTOS hILASMOS ESTIN PERI TWN hAMARTIWN hHMWN, OU PERI TWNhHMETERWN DE MONON ALLA KAI…MONON, being an accusative, surprised me. I would have thought itshould agree with hHMETERWN. Does MONON modify the wholeprepositional phrase (PERI TWN hHMETERWN)?Also, and I suspect this is related to the first question, whatfunction is DE performing?Could MONON be adverbial, thus giving: “He is the expiation, theonly one existing…”?Thanks for any help as PARAKOLOUQEW FRONOUNTA EN TNi hELLHNIKHi.– Mike Sangreymike at sojurn.lns.pa.us
