Re: Two Books on Verbal Aspect
I found Fanning much easier to read than Porter (it's been a long time since I read either).

I have it now. And so far, it really seems to live up to its billing.Jonathan Robie wrote:I'm glad you're telling me that. I have completely ignored this book.MAubrey wrote:The title is deceptive because it appears to only be about the morphology of Greek in Revelation, but that's not quite the case. In order for Mussies to discuss the morphology of Revelation, he must first provide a thorough and comprehensive semantic-morphological description of the language in general as a baseline for comparing Revelation. The result is a nearly comprehensive grammatical description of Greek morpho-syntax.
