Re: John 16.23: ἐμὲ
One last question for this round: I have a question on John 16.23: “καὶ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐμὲ οὐκ ἐρωτήσετε οὐδέν·” I would like to know if the position of “ἐμὲ” lends a particular emphasis to the word or if that is the normal position for a direct object. If there is no particular emphasis, it wo...

Re: Can't think of a Koinē NT equivalent to this...
It's amazing how one dedicated effort like that can make such a big impact. I agree — having something so comprehensive for the NT would be incredible. By the way, projects that make sacred texts accessible remind me of a similar effort with the Qur'an, like this Surah Yaseen pdf resource here — cl...

Hi, I'm a NT Greek enthusiast currently studying New Testament Greek.

Re: Paul’s use of close apposition in Romans 1:13
An even more detailed study—same topic, same authors—-can be found here: https://www.jstor. snake game .org/stable/41502417 This interpretation aligns with the concept of Greek polydefinites as instances of close apposition, as explored by Lekakou and Szendrői. I checked online to see that Lekakou ...

Re: Tributes to Carl Conrad
My computer hasn’t been connecting well to the site these past few days, so I just now had the opportunity to read through the posts here. I really have nothing meaningful to add, except to join in on Carl’s praise as someone who was extremely insightful, wise, and patient. I joined B-Greek back in...

Re: Parsing of ἐμεγάλυνεν in Lk 1:58
Ah - thanks Jason. So I was missing something. Stems ending in liquids/nasals. I've probably got into the habit of recognising any such verbs that don't have different aorist stems by their endings - e.g. ἐκρινα, although I don't know if that form actually occurs in the NT - and forgotten about the...

Re: Parsing of ἐμεγάλυνεν in Lk 1:58
By the way, if you throw it into the parsing machine on Diogenes, you get the following:
1. ἐμεγάλῡνεν, μεγαλύνω (make great): aor ind act 3rd sg
2. ἐμεγάλῡνεν, μεγαλύνω (make great): imperf ind act 3rd sg
This correctly shows that the form can be either tense.2. ἐμεγάλῡνεν, μεγαλύνω (make great): imperf ind act 3rd sg
