[] Genitives in Rom. 2:4 [] Genitives in Rom. 2:4 Thanks Carl. I thot of that possibility, but saw no direct statement in thethe lexicons I checked. I should have checked the examples more closely.Is there a source somewhere that lists al the NT words that take an objectin something other than the Accusative?Is there a possibility of having some of the header materials deleted in thenew digest format?

His general principle is thatthe subject is the **known** entity. The pronoun (explicit or impliedin the verb) trumps all. It will be the subject regardless of thegrammatical tag of the other substantive. The only exception is theinterrogative pronoun, which will always be the predicate nominative.He states:”The reason that personal, demonstrative, and relative pronounsfunction differently than interrogative pronouns is this: the formerare a substitute for something already revealed in the context (a knownquantity), while the latter are anticipatory of a substantive not yetrevealed (an unknown quantity). One refers back to an antecedent; theother looks forward to a postcedent” (p. 44 and n. 24).=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3DSteven R.

Here is a typical example of what I mean:I think your point is clear, which is why I’ve deleted most of your lengthycatalog of examples. I don’t think this is something that our list softwarecan help with: it adds the distinctive list-headers, the others are addedeither by yours or others’ mail-programs and by each link in the internetas it sends a message on from one station to another. You may, however,have something in your own mail program, as those of us who use Eudorahave, that represses or HIDES what Eudora calls “blah!” headers; I’ve fixedmy settings so that I usually don’t get more than Date/From/To/CC/ andSubject. But that’s a matter of the settings of each individual mailprogram. If your mail isn’t filtered through a good mail program, then youprobably have headers running far longer than a messaage.>_______________________________>Date: Tue, 04 Feb 2003 14:21:19 -0500>From: Albert Pietersma <albert.pietersma at sympatico.ca>>To: at ntresources.com>Cc: at lists.ibiblio.org>Subject: Re: [] LXX perplexity: Wever on Dt 4:1>Message-ID: <3E40126E.E473188E at sympatico.ca>>References: <20030204190503.6122.qmail at mailshell.com>>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii; x-mac-type=”54455854″;>x-mac-creator=”4D4F5353″>MIME-Version: 1.0>Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit>Precedence: list>Message: 2>__________________________________> >This is the normal, occassionally we get worse ones as in this post:>——————————> >Date: Mon, 3 Feb 2003 16:45:44 -0600>From: “Jim” <bailey at ckt.net>>To: < at lists.ibiblio.org>>Subject: []>Message-ID: <001401c2cbd5$fc8c2230$47f331d8 at default>>Content-Type: text/plain;>charset=”iso-8859-1″>MIME-Version: 1.0>Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable>Precedence: list>Message: 3— Carl W.
