Re: κατίωται
Thank you very much. This really helps. Is there a book I can buy that explains things the way you just did for the "difficult" words? Will Mounce's Morphology of Biblical Greek do the trick?

κατίωται
ὁ χρυσὸς ὑμῶν καὶ ὁ ἄργυρος κατίωται καὶ ὁ ἰὸς αὐτῶν εἰς μαρτύριον ὑμῖν ἔσται καὶ φάγεται τὰς σάρκας ὑμῶν· ὡς πῦρ. ἐθησαυρίσατε ἐν ἐσχάταις ἡμέραις. James 5:3 Why is κατίωται perfect tense? Where is the duplication? Shouldn't it be κεκατίωται? Or is it a compound verb with κατά? How do you tell apar...

Re: Missing Parenthesis in Trenchard
Of the 15 times ξηραίνω appears in the NT, 10 times are in the form ἐξηράνθη. Of these, 1) 7 refer to trees or plants or branches withering or drying up (Matt 13:6, 21:19, 21:20, Mk 4:6, Lk 8:6, Jn 15:6, 1Pet 1:24), 2) 1 refers to the healed woman's blood drying up (Mk 5: 29), 3) 1 refers to water d...

Missing Parenthesis in Trenchard
Trenchard, when giving English glosses for a verb, usually uses a parenthesis to explain the usage for glosses after a semicolon: νομίζω - I think, believe, suppose; am the custom (pass) But for this next word, someone seems to have forgotten the parenthesis: ξηραίνω - I dry; dry up, wither, stop, b...

Re: Romans 16.7 - "Natural Gender" and "Arbitrary Gender"?
I've been looking for information on Greek diminutives and found an amazing 17 page article in the Journal of Biblical Literature. And it's free, too!Stephen Carlson wrote: Perhaps it's considered weird because it's neuter and the referent is female. Not so weird to a Greek used to neuter diminutives.

Re: Romans 16.7 - "Natural Gender" and "Arbitrary Gender"?
Here's another weird-gender word:
γυναικάριον, ου, τό - idle or silly woman.
Even though it's a ἅπαξ λεγόμενον, I'm memorizing it as I'm certain it'll come in handy soon enough.

τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ διδασκαλίᾳ (1 Timothy 1:10)
1 Timothy 1:10 reads: πόρνοις, ἀρσενοκοίταις, ἀνδραποδισταῖς, ψεύσταις, ἐπιόρκοις, καὶ εἴ τι ἕτερον τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ διδασκαλίᾳ ἀντίκειται Why is τῇ ὑγιαινούσῃ διδασκαλίᾳ dative? In George W. Knight III's NIGTC commentary on the Pastoral Epistles, he has a brief, cryptic note on this (page 90): "F...
