Dear Carl and b-greek list, [Ghilardi] > >TIM. A' 1:20 -- hWN ESTIN hUMENAIOS KAI ALEXANDROS... > > > >TIM. B' 2:17 -- ... hWN ESTIN hUMENAIOS KAI FILHTOS [Conrad] > I think that this is a not uncommon construction wherein the second subject is an add-on; [Ghilardi] You cited sects. 963-972 of Smyth to support the statement above. But only 966 is relevant. In this section Smyth cites no Hellenistic writers to illustrate the principle. Furthermore, all the verbs used are transitive verbs not copulative as in the NT examples. Can you cite any other examples from the NT or LXX to convince me that this construction is << not uncommon >>?
