Re: Campbell, Basics of Verbal Aspect, 2nd edition
It's been a while since I read it, but the biggest thing that I remember is that his view of the perfect is off. For a good understanding of the perfect, I suggest chapters 13–15 in Runge & Fresch, The Greek Verb . Steve Runge is on this forum occasionally, as is Randall Buth. They would be able...

Re: Titus 2:3 "καλοδιδασκάλους"
It doesn't look like anyone answered this. This is a compound adjective, or sometimes called a two-termination adjective. Compound adjectives only have the masculine (or what is normally masculine) and neuter endings. The context tells you whether the adjective is masculine or feminine. This one, as...

Re: Heater - A Septuagint Translation Technique in the Book of Job (£21.00)
Internet Archive's free library is a great boon to scholars; I use it almost daily in my work. The court case against them by some publishers is attempting to shut them down, but so far the courts are allowing them to lend books that don't currently have ebook versions. The case is being appealed an...

Re: ξύλον translated as “tree” in Deuteronomy and Acts
According to Brill's Dictionary of Ancient Greek , it occurs with that sense already in Euripides Cycl. 572 and also in Herodotus and Xenophon's Anabasis , becoming more common in the Hellenistic period, occurring in Theophrastus with an etc. after the one citation. That leads me to think it was a f...

Re: Fresch - Discourse Markers in Early Koine Greek: Cognitive Functional Analysis and LXX Translation Technique
Just thought I'd mention I've read neither Runge nor Levinsohn's books which Jonathan has mentioned, and I understood Fresch fine. He does have quite a long introduction which should suffice most people's needs. In my opinion, anyway :) It's a revised dissertation, so he has to show that he knows o...
