The age old issue of form vs. function, eh, George?! :)

I was taught 8 cases, but now only believe in 5. You wouldn't believe how
much more concise my theology has become, also!

*Then*, we get to the question of how do we best translate the various
functions of the source forms into English. It sure ain't as easy as
matching up prepositional phrases between Greek and English!
