One of the main uses of ποιεῖν is to “cause” things to be in a certain state or to happen.If I take this at face value. None of these passages follow that rule: John 5:18; John 8:53; John 10:33; John 19:7, 12; 1 John 1:10; 1 John 5:10; https://www.bib…
There is an instance in Psalm 138:6 in which ἀπὸ μακρόθεν matches the construction of the Hebrew ἀπὸ-μακρό-θεν/מ־מ־רחק. Does-θεν have the same function as -hinc?Psalm 138:6 ab longinquē cognōscit “He knows from a distance” ?Statistics: Posted by Sabo…

I’d take this as meaning something like “As to jealousy he longs for the spirit that he implanted in us.” The subject of επιποθεῖ must surely be God, and το πνεῦμα must surely be its object. I really don’t see much room for doubt about that. The diffi…
I think that the reader is probably supposed to understand the imagined event as a type spoken persuasion. But all the Greek says is that the beast “will make them so they’ll get put to death”. It’s not precise. Did the author imagine the beast orderi…
Question: Is there a concordance of the Greek New Testament that’s similar in style to the Hatch and Redpath Concordance of the Septuaguint? i.e. which lists in alphabetical order every Greek word (including stop words which Perseus doesn’t index) fou…
I disagree. πρός has many uses besides making an adverb. I gave the most neutral and least question-begging one. I’m well aware that “God’s jealousy is in fact a frequent topic in scripture”—less so in the NT than in the Septuagint, however, and not i…
Thanks! I suspected it was a matter of lengthening or contraction but couldn’t find anything about the development of those articles. Did you just remember about τόνς or did you make use of a source that you can share? Again, thanks for this really he…

τι εμοι/ημιν και συ(NT; Mt 8:29; Mk 1:24; 5:7; Lk 4:34; 8:28; John 2:4)No, the above cited text is not a mistake, it’s the variant I found in Ms 828 John 2:4.The expression τι εμοι και σοι was discussed here before (https://www.textkit.com/greek-latin…
We mustn’t confuse the issues. There’s the εαν/αν spelling, and there’s the question of the semantics in various syntactic contexts. And there’s the question of textual corruption and “correction.” And the enquiry should not be limited to the NT, with…
In legal Papyri-documents sometimes at the end appear sentences like:εγραψεν υπερ αυτου Διονυσιος … ο προγεγραμμενος δια το αυτον μη επιστασθαι γραμματα.(Dionysius, who has written the foregoing text,, has written for him, as he is illiterate; Tebtuni…
(as in Acts the journeys of Paul are clearly creatively constructed by someone trying to give a narrative to the names and places mentioned). .Joel, that prompts me to ask, what is your view of the “we” passages in Acts? For my part, they have always…

That particular story is original with Matthew, I suspect, and the usage of δηνάριον in Mark would be sufficient to explain Matthew’s word choices, as Matthew is trying to both retell and imitate Mark. Besides, Matthew is writing late, after the 70 A….
Students of the New Testament have always been very well served. BAGD, a lexicon rather than a concordance, is good for any serious work. The abridged version (Gingrich-Danker) is handy and very serviceable: it conveniently sorts the NT refs, but (unl…
