Nor is Moule--at least his book doesn't discuss very much what we
linguistically call idioms, such as English:

"John kicked the bucket."

To try to remedy this lack of a list of true Greek idioms I have begun a
tentative list of New Testament Idioms at URL:

I warmly invite corrections and additions to my list, either via private
email or publicly here on the b-greek list.
