Kata masc/feminine plural participle Someone had suggested that the fellow walker with Cleopas on the road toEmmaus might be Cleopas’ wife. The surmise was based on John 19:25.My question concerns whether the masculine participle in Luke 24:33 wouldallow the possibility for the antecedents to be husband and wife. Or woulda male and female require a neuter modifier?Lk 24:33 KAI ANASTANTES AUTHi THi hWRA hUPESTREYAN EIS IEROUSALHMThanks,Richard SmithChattanooga, TN

Iwouldn’t base any guesses on such an understanding of the fellow walker inLk 24:33 on a Johannine text such as that, although, as I’ve said already,there’s nothing grammatically in the participle that rules that possibilityout.– Carl W.

Lluke 24:15 Lluke 24:15 I’ve argued for some time that the travelers to Emmaus are Cleopas and hiswife, but not primarily because of the “wife of Clopas” mentioned in John.Rather, the logic of the Lukan story itself seems to me to fit the travelersbeing a married couple going home and inviting the fellow-traveler intotheir home. The Greek does not dictate this, of course; but it makes itpossible, and the story is least convoluted if understood this way.–Sandra Hack Polaski> —–Original Message—–> From: Biblical Greek digest [mailto: at franklin.oit.unc.edu]> Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2002 1:00 AM> To: digest recipients> Subject: Re: masc/feminine plural participle> From: “Kevin W.
