An Idiom Book of New Testament Greek Our Price: 27.95
|
|
The student or translator of the New Testament will often
find difficulties which can only be solved by considering the syntax of the
passage concerned. Professor Moule here provides a reference book which gives
guidance on such problems of exegesis. It is a work which presupposes a
knowledge of Greek and makes frequent allusions to the standard works; it is
intended primarily for theological students. After an introductory section on
'The Language of the New Testament' Professor Moule considers in turn particular
syntactical divisions (tenses, moods, voices, cases), certain parts of speech
and types of clauses, and idiosyncrasies in usage. The last four chapters are
'The order of words', 'Semitisms', 'Latinisms', and 'Miscellaneous notes on
style'. In each section New Testament usages are defined and distinguished. A
number of examples of each type of problem are discussed. They were chosen as
being sufficiently representative to provide a guide to the treatment of similar
difficulties.
