Is there an example φημι used that way with an articular infinitive or a genitive? It seems odd to me, but maybe it’s an LXX thing.And you’d have to show me some usage examples of ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ used like that. The “disguise in front of himself” idiom …
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…
Hi all, just to zoom out to the broader context (and in passing I note that I agree with Michael that, when you read the whole sentence, τὸ πνεῦμα must be the object, especially given κατῴκισεν in the relative clause for which the subject must be God)…
vol 2 the Grammatical Focus is a peculiar lexiconsuppose you want to find all Nouns Fem.Acc.Plur. look at page XII Abbreviations and Symbols (archive.org scan page 18) you see N F A P.Look at the right page (uneaven pages) at the top right, you will f…
BTW the reason I want an *exhaustive* concordance of the GNT is so I can find instances of various pronouns and particles in NT verses. Then I can use suchverses to help me remember what a particular pronoun or particle means. For example, if I can fi…

The INTF and the IGNTP both have a lot of manuscript-transcriptions, but it is not possible on their Websites to search a specific reading in all transcriptions.So I collected all available Transcripts of both institutes and built a kind of raw databa…
Thanks for the lengthy explanation. Merry Christmas!Statistics: Posted by Jean Putmans — Sun Dec 24, 2023 5:36 pm
You have two examples of the “but instead” meaning in the Psalm quote. I would say that neither appear to use an emphatic negative. And my post was an argument for *not* reading Luke 12:51 with this “but instead” translation. I suggest looking through…
οτι is not originally present in Sinaiticus, but is added as a correction up above the line (in 56).Both verses in Hebrew start out with the feminine demonstrative, and the Greek seem to be keeping the gender for that reason. Robert Alter translates 5…
Thanks that makes sense Joel. The NETS which translates from the Septuagint has:Not so, the impious, not so!Rather, they are like the dust that…And the LSJ entry for ἤ has this under the heading B. COMPARATIVE: after Advbs. or adverbial phrases, πλή…

This passage isn’t quite like those other passages. The ones in your first list have the form ποιεῖν τινα +adj./subst. predicate, which is ποιεῖν.III in the LSJ. That is the “render so and so” type of use I mentioned.In your second list, one of these …
I take it that he’s deploring φθόνος among his addressees. This fits with his inveighing against their internal dissensions (4.1 πόθεν πόλεμοι και πόθεν μάχαι εν ὑμιν; etc., 2 ζηλοῦτε etc., cf. 3.14 ει δε ζῆλον …) and with the rest of the letter. ζῆ…

I hope I’m not breaking any rules by reopening a thread that has been dormant for six months. I just noticed that Joachim Jeremias gives his own answer to your specific question, citing chapter and verse, on p. 9 of his book New Testament Theology (li…
NA28 and Kittel Theological Dictionary (Lemma : απαιτεω) say that Lk 12:20 refers to LXX Sap. (σοφια σαλομονος) 15:8 :The LXX uses a Passive: το της ψυχης απαιτηθεις χρεος (Rahlfs II, 368) (when the soul, which was lent him is demanded back; A new eng…
In the LXX/Septuaginta one finds (examples just for Genesis and Exodus) a: [ανα μεσον + Gen.Sg.] (Ex. 26:10) b: [ανα μεσον + Gen.Pl.] ; (Ex. 22:10; 25:22; 26:28; 28:33; 36:32;Gen. 15:17; 31:37; 31:53; 42:23; 49:14c: [ανα μεσον + Gen. + Gen.] (Ex. 11:7…
Thanks Joel. Interesting that the emphatic negative οὐχί is in both the 1 Ki and Lk examples (though not in Ps 1:4).Statistics: Posted by Mitch — Sat May 18, 2024 3:36 pm
Thanks Jean, after checking it out on Archive.org it looks like volume 1 of the Analytical Concordance is what I’m looking for. But I can’t figure out what volume 2 is about, it just looks like an endless stream of phrases with xrefs but no headings–…
