Re: Apposition and Epexegesis

Stephen, I appreciate your reply. I'll apologize for not being specific enough (and I did not realize I had typed the title as Attribution instead of Apposition ). I agree that Wallace is "dealing with an entrenched term 'genitive of apposition' and compromises have to be made," and also t...

Attribution and Epexegesis

I haven’t yet found this discussed on this board, but I’m wondering why Wallace keeps two categories (appositional and epexegetical) separate throughout his book except in the genitive case, where he combines them in the genitive of apposition. I may have missed it, but I haven’t seen that he explai...

Logic of the Order of Definitions in BDAG 3rd ed

I have read somewhere (?) that the order of definitions in BDAG3 is generally by order of widespread usage (not necessarily biblical text) most frequent to least. But I haven't found this explanation in BDAG itself. Also, I note that this is not apparently a reliable principle. As one example, απτω ...

Vocabulary by Author Group

I'm looking for a vocabulary guide to the NT that lists vocab by author-group. eg. The complete vocab of the John's corpus or the Paul corpus (hopefully, divided by authentic and questioned books; and also by frequecy) I'm aware of the Lexical readers by Kubo and also Burer/Miller. And of course the...

Re: Gary D. Collier

I appreciate that. We focus more on how texts are approached than on what theological conclusions are reached. It has been interesting to see the wide range of response to the effort. I've been working Greek into this more and more and have found a ready audience . . . so far. Gary _________________...

NT Greek Vocab Guides

I have in hand a number of books on building NT Greek vocabulary (Metzger, Kubo, Robinson, Morrison, and a few others). Are there any NT vocabulary building tools that focus specifically on author groups: say Pauline literature? I realize that the books above can be (ultimately) used for that purpos...

Gary D. Collier

I was a member of B-Greek several years ago (late 90's ?). I now run a website for popular consumption (CWP Classroom) which encourages "responsible, contextual, and conversational" reading of the NT. It is not our goal to create scholars; but it is a goal to encourage a respect for conver...
