TO MY MOTHER PREFACE This textbook is intended primarily for students who are beginning the study of the Greek Testament either with- out any previous acquaintance with the Greek language or with an acquaintance so imperfect that a renewed course of elementary instruction is needed. Owing to the exigencies of the present educational situation, many who desire to use the Greek Testament are unable to approach the subject through a study of classical Attic prose. The situation is undoubtedly to be regretted, but its existence should not be ignored. Itis unfortunate that so many students of the New Testament have no acquaintance with classical Greek, but it would be still more unfortunate if such students, on account of their lack of acquaintance with classical Greek, should be discouraged from making themselves acquainted at least with the easier language of the New Testament. The New Testament usage will here be presented with- out any reference to Attic prose. But a previous ac- quaintance with Attic prose, even though it be only a smattering, will prove to be an immense assistance in the mastery of the course. By students who possess such ac- quaintance the lessons can be covered much more rapidly than by mere beginners. The book is an instruction book, and not a descriptive grammar. Since it is an instruction book, everything in it is made subservient to the imparting of a reading acquaint- ance with the language. In a descriptive grammar, for example, the rules may be formulated with a lapidary succinctness which would here be out of place. The effort is made here to enter upon those explanations which the fifteen years’ experience of the author in teaching New Testament Greek has shown to be essential. In a descrip- Vil Vill PREFACE tive grammar, moreover, the illustrations would have to be limited to what can actually be found in the New Testa- ment, but in the present book they are reduced so far as possible to an ideally simple form, which does not always appear in the New Testament books. In this way the vocabulary at every point can be confined to what the student has actually studied, and confusing footnotes can be avoided. It is highly important that only one gram- matical point should be considered at a time. An introduc- tion of illustrations taken from the New Testament would often so overlay the explanation with new words and with subsidiary usages unfamiliar to the student that the specific grammatical point under discussion would be alto- gether obscured. Of course, however, the effort has been made not to introduce into the illustrations any usages ex- cept those which are common in the New Testament idiom. The character of the book as an instruction book has also determined the choice and order of the material. The treatment has been limited to a few essential points, and no attempt has been made to exhibit the real richness and flexibility of the New Testament language, which can be discovered only through reading. This limitation may in places give rise to criticism, as for example in connection with the treatment of participles. The author is well aware of the fundamentally non-temporal character of the tenses in the participle, and also of the great variety in the shades of thought which the participle can express. But after all it is highly important for the beginner to understand clearly the distinction between the present and the aorist participle, and that distinction can be made clear at the beginning only through the proper use of our temporal mode of thought. Only when what is simple and usual has been firmly impressed upon the student’s mind by patient repeti- tion can the finer and more difficult points be safely touched. PREFACE ix The treatment of the participle, moreover, has been thrust as far forward as possible in the book, in order that ample time may be allowed for practising the usages which it involves. Experience shows that in learning to read New Testament Greek, the participle is almost the crux of the whole matter. Special attention has been given to the exercises. Until the very last few lessons (and then only in the Greek- English exercises) the sentences have not for the most part been taken from the New Testament, since the book is intended as an instruction book in Greek and not as a stimulus to memory of the English Bible. At a later stage in the study of New Testament Greek, the student’s memory of the English Bible is not an unmixed evil, for repeated reading of already familiar passages will often fix the meaning of a word in the mind far better than it could ever be fixed by the mere learning of a vocabulary. But in the early stages, such assistance will do far more harm than good. In the exercises, the effort has been made to exhibit definitely the forms and grammatical usages which have just been discussed in the same lesson, and also to keep constantly before the mind, in ever new relationships, the most important usages that have been discussed before. The vocabularies have been limited to words which are very common in the New Testament or which require special explanation. Everywhere the effort has been made to introduce the words in the illustrations and exercises. The learning of lists of words, unless the words so learned are actually used, is a waste of time. The author desires to express appreciation of the pioneer work which has been done in this country by Professor John Homer Huddilston, Ph.D., in his Hssentzals of New Testament Greek, First Edition, 1895, and also of the larger English book of Rev. H. P. V. Nunn, M.A., entitled The Χ PREFACE Elements of New Testament Greek, First Edition, 1918. The two books by John Williams White, The Beginner’s Greek Book, 1895, and The First Greek Book; 1896, have also been consulted with profit, especially as regards the form of presentation. Among reference works, the new grammar of J. H. Moulton, A Grammar of New Testament Greek, edited by Wilbert Francis Howard, especially Part ii of Vol. II, on -Accidence, 1920, and the work by E. D. Burton on Moods and Tenses in New Testament Greek, 1906, have been found particularly useful. Acknowledgment is also to be made to Blass-Debrunner, Grammatik des neutestamentlichen Griechisch, 1913, and to the convenient summary of classical usage in Goodwin’s Greek Grammar. And both the Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament of Grimm-Thayer and Moulton and Geden’s Concordance to the Greek Testament have been found absolutely indispen- sable throughout. The advanced student will find much useful material in the large work of A. T. Robertson, A Grammar of the Greek New Testament in the Light of Histori- cal Research, 1914. The author is deeply grateful to Professor Edward Capps, Ph.D., LL.D., of Princeton University, who, in the most gracious possible way, has examined the proof of the book throughout, and (of course without becoming at all responsible for any faults or errors) has rendered invaluable assistance at many points. Much encourage- ment and help have also been received from the wise counsel and unfailing kindness of the Rev. Professor William Park Armstrong, D.D., of Princeton Theological Seminary. VIII.

In the fifth century before Christ, one branch of the Ionic family, the Attic, attained the supremacy, especially as the language of prose literature. The Attic dialect was the language of Athens in her glory—the language of Thucy- dides, of Plato, of Demosthenes, and of most of the other great prose writers of Greece. Various causes contributed to make the Attic dialect dominant in the Greek-speaking world. First and foremost must be put the genius of the Athenian writers. But the political and commercial importance of Athens was also not without its effect. Hosts of strangers came into contact with Athens through government, war and trade, and the Athenian colonies also extended the influence of the mother city. The Athenian Empire, indeed, soon fell to pieces. Athens was conquered first by Sparta in the Peloponnesian war, and then, in the middle of the fourth century before Christ, along with the other Greek cities, came under the domination of the king of Macedonia, Philip. But the influence of the Attic dialect survived the loss of political power; the language of Athens became also the language of her conquerors. Macedonia was not originally a Greek kingdom, but it adopted thé dominant civilization of the day, which was the civilization of Athens. The tutor of Philip’s son, Alex- ander the Great, was Aristotle, the Greek philosopher; and that fact is only one indication of the conditions of the time. With astonishing rapidity Alexander made himself master of the whole eastern world, and the triumphs of the Mace- 1 2 INTRODUCTION donian arms were also triumphs of the Greek language in its Attic form. The empire of Alexander, indeed, at once fell to pieces after his death in 828 B.C.; but the kingdoms into which it was divided were, at least so far as the court and the governing classes were concerned, Greek kingdoms. Thus the Macedonian conquest meant nothing less than the Hellenization of the East, or at any rate it meant an enormous acceleration of the Hellenizing process which had already begun. When the Romans, in the last two centuries before Christ, conquered the eastern part of the Mediterranean world, they made no attempt to suppress the Greek lan- guage. On the contrary, the conquerors to a very consider- able extent were conquered by those whom they con- quered. Rome herself had already come under Greek influence, and now she made use of the Greek language in administering at least the eastern part of her vast empire. The language of the Roman Empire was not so much Latin as it was Greek. Thus in the first century after Christ Greek had become a world language. The ancient languages of the various countries did indeed continue to exist, and many districts were bilingual—the original local languages existing side by side with the Greek. But at least in the great cities throughout the Empire—certainly in the East—the Greek language was everywhere understood. Even in Rome itself there was a large Greek-speaking population. It is not sur- prising that Paul’s letter to the Roman Church is written not in Latin but in Greek. But the Greek language had to pay a price for this enor- mous extension of its influence. In its career of conquest it experienced important changes. The ancient Greek dia- lects other than Attic, although they disappeared almost completely before the beginning of the Christian era, may INTRODUCTION 3 have exerted considerable influence upon the Greek of the new unified world. Less important, no doubt, than the influence of the Greek dialects, and far less important than might have been expected, was the influence of foreign lan- guages. But influences of a more subtle and less tangible kind were mightily at work. Language is a reflection of the intellectual and spiritual habits of the people who use it. Attic prose, for example, reflects the spiritual life of a small city-state, which was unified by an intense patriotism and a glorious literary tradition. But after the time of Alex- ander, the Attic speech was no longer the language of a small group of citizens living in the closest spiritual associa- tion; on the contrary it had become the medium of exchange for peoples of the most diverse character. It is not sur- prising, then, that the language of the new cosmopolitan age was very different from the original Attic dialect upon which it was founded. This new world language which prevailed after Alex- ander has been called not inappropriately ‘‘the Koiné.” The word ‘“‘Koiné” means ‘‘common”’; it is not a bad desig- nation, therefore, for a language which was a common medium of exchange for diverse peoples. The Koiné, then, is the Greek world language that prevailed from about 300 B.C. to the close of ancient history at about A.D. 500. The New Testament was written within this Koiné period. Linguistically considered, it is united in a very close way with the Greek translation of the Old Testament called the “‘Septuagint,’”’ which was made at Alexandria in the centuries just preceding the Christian era, and with certain Christian writings of the early part of the second century after Christ, which are ordinarily associated under the name ‘‘Apostolic Fathers.”’ Within this triple group, it is true, the language of the New Testament is easily su- preme. But so far as the bare instrument of expression 4 INTRODUCTION is concerned the writings of the group belong together. Where, then, within the development of the Koiné is this whole group to be placed? It has always been observed that the language of the New Testament differs strikingly from the great Attic prose writers such as Thucydides or Plato or Demosthenes. That — fact is not surprising. It can easily be explained by the lapse of centuries and by the important changes which the creation of the new cosmopolitanism involved. But an- other fact is more surprising. It is discovered, namely, that the language of the New Testament differs not merely from that of the Attic prose writers of four centuries before, but also from that of the Greek writers of the very period within which the New Testament was written. The Greek of the New Testament is very different, for example, from the Greek of Plutarch. This difference used sometimes to be explained by the hypothesis that the New Testament was written in a Jew- ish-Greek dialect—a form of Greek very strongly influenced by the Semitic languages, Hebrew and Aramaic. But in recent years another explanation has been coming increas- ingly into vogue. This other explanation has been given an important impetus by the discovery, in Egypt, of the ‘‘non- literary papyri.”’ For the most part the Koiné had until recently been known to scholars almost exclusively through literature. But within the past twenty or thirty years there have been discovered in Egypt, where the dry air has preserved even the fragile writing-material of antiquity, great numbers of documents such as wills, receipts, petitions and private letters. These documents are not “literature.” Many of them were intended merely to be read once and then thrown away. They exhibit, therefore, not the polished language of books but the actual spoken language of everyday life. And on account of their important INTRODUCTION 5 divergence from the language of such writers as Plutarch they have revealed with new clearness the interesting fact that in the Koiné period there was a wide gap between the language of literature and the language of every day. The literary men of the period imitated the great Attic models with more or less exactitude; they maintained an artificial literary tradition. The obscure writers of the non-literary papyri, on the other hand, imitated nothing, but simply expressed themselves, without affectation, in the language of the street. But it is discovered that the language of the New Testa- ment, at various points where it differs from the literature even of the Koiné period, agrees with the non-literary pa- pyri. That discovery has suggested a new hypothesis to account for the apparent peculiarity of the language of the New Testament. It is now supposed that the impres- sion of peculiarity which has been made upon the minds of modern readers by New Testament Greek is due merely to the fact that until recently our knowledge of the spoken as distinguished from the literary language of the Koiné period has been so limited. In reality, it is said, the New Testament is written simply in the popular form of the Koiné which was spoken in the cities throughout the whole of the Greek-speaking world. This hypothesis undoubtedly contains a large element of truth. Undoubtedly the language of the New Testament is no artificial language of books, and no Jewish-Greek jargon, but the natural, living language of the period. But the Semitic influence should not be underestimated. The New Testament writers were nearly all Jews, and all of them were strongly influenced by the Old Testament. In par- ticular, they were influenced, so far as language is con- cerned, by the Septuagint, and the Septuagint was influ- enced, as most ancient translations were, by the language of 6 INTRODUCTION the original. The Septuagint had gone far toward pro- ducing a Greek vocabulary to express the deepest things of the religion of Israel. And this vocabulary was profoundly influential in the New Testament. Moreover, the origin- ality of the New Testament writers should not be ignored. They had come under the influence of new convictions of a transforming kind, and those new convictions had their effect in the sphere of language. Common words had to be given new and loftier meanings, and common men were lifted to a higher realm by a new and glorious experience. It is not surprising, then, that despite linguistic similarities in detail the New Testament books, even in form, are vastly different from the letters that have been discovered in Egypt. The New Testament writers have used the com- mon, living language of the day. But they have used it in the expression of uncommon thoughts, and the language itself, in the process, has been to some extent transformed. The Epistle to the Hebrews shows that even conscious art could be made the instrument of profound sincerity, and the letters of Paul, even the shortest and simplest of them, are no mere private jottings intended to be thrown away, like the letters that have been discovered upon the rubbish heaps of Egypt, but letters addressed by an apostle to the Church of God. The cosmopolitan popular language of the Graeco-Roman world served its purpose in history well. It broke down racial and linguistic barriers. And at one point in its life it became sublime. - — —— a ἂτα, _ —— Ne ee ee ee LESSONS NEW TESTAMENT GREEK LESSON I The Alphabet 1. The Greek alphabet is as follows: Capital Letters DaMOeRBHEMUROMNZSrP RM OONEPHWE Small Letters Ὃ HROMVYE HFT SDSITMMA OLA τὸ 8 bo Name Alpha Beta Gamma Delta Epsilon Zeta Eta Theta Tota Kappa Lambda Mu Nu Xi Omicron Pi Rho Sigma Tau Upsilon hi Chi Psi Omega Pronunciation a as in father b g as in gol! d e as in get dz a as in late th i as in pit, ee as in feet as in obey che δε δ τὸ On page ΞΡ τεῦ bs French τὶ or German ti ph German ch in Ach ps Ο as in note 1Before another Ὕ or ΚΟΥ xX, Ὕ is pronounced like ng. 2 At the beginning of a word p is written p, rh. ὃς is written at the end of a word, elsewhere o. 10 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 2. The student is advised to learn the small letters thoroughly, in connection with the first lesson, leaving the capital letters to be picked up later, as they occur. It should be observed that sentences are begun with small letters, not with capitals. Before the formation of the letters is practised, guidance should be obtained from the teacher, since it is impracticable to copy exactly the printed form of the letters, and since bad habits of penman- ship ought by all means to be avoided. For example, β and p should be formed without lifting the pen and by beginning at the bottom. In these matters the help of a teacher is indispensable. 3. The Greek vowels are as follows: Short Long a a n Oo ω ι t υ υ It will be noted that a, ε, and νυ can be either long or short. The long a and v are pronounced very much like the corresponding short letters, except that the sound is held longer; the short tis pronounced like 1 in p7é and the long c like ee in feet. € is always short, and ἡ is the long of it; o is always short, and wis the long of it. This clear distinction in ap- pearance between the long and short e and o makes the matter of quantity very much easier in Greek than it is in Latin. ν- ι and v are called close vowels; and the others open vowels. 4. A diphthong is a combination of two vowels in a single syllable. The second letter of a diphthong is always NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 1 a close vowel. The first letter is always an open vowel except in the case of uw. The common diphthongs are as follows: at, pronounced like ai in azsle εἰ, pronounced like ἃ in fate (thus εἰ and ἢ are pro- nounced alike) ot, pronounced like oi in οἱ av, pronounced like ow in cow ev, pronounced like eu in feud ov, pronounced like oo in food vt, pronounced like ee in queen The diphthongs nv and wv (pronounced by drawing the sounds of each letter closely together) are rare. When t unites with long a, ἢ or ὦ to form one sound, the t is writ- ten under the other letter instead of after it, and is called iota subscript. Thus a, ἢ, w. This iota subscript has no effect whatever upon the pronunciation; a being pronounced like long a, ῃ like ἡ, ῳ like w. 5. A vowel or diphthong at the beginning of a word always has a breathing. The breathing stands over a vowel; and in the case of a diphthong it stands over the second of the two component vowels. The rough breathing (‘) indicates that an h-sound is to be pronounced before the initial vowel or diphthong; the smooth breathing (’) indicates that no such h-sound is to be pronounced. Thus ἐν is to be pronounced en, and ἑν is to be pronounced hen; ov is to be pronounced 00, and ov is to be pronounced hoo. 6. There are three accents, the acute (‘), the circumflex (7), and the grave (‘). These accents, like the breathings, stand over a vowel, and, in the case of a diphthong, over the second of the two component vowels. When a breath- ing and an accent stand over the same vowel, the breathing 12 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK comes first, except in the case of the circumflex accent, which stands over the breathing. Thus οἴκου, οἶκος. The use of the accents will be studied in Lesson II. Here it should simply be observed that the stress in pronunciation is to be placed on the syllable that has any one of the accents. , Phe Punctuation There are four marks of punctuation: the comma (,) and the period (.), both written on the line and corre- sponding to the comma and the period in English; the colon, which is a dot above the line (:), and takes the place of the English colon and semicolon; and the question- mark (;) which looks like an English semicolon. 8. Exercise After learning to write the small letters of the alphabet and give the names of the letters in order, the student should practise pronouncing Greek words and sentences found anywhere in the book. Throughout the entire study, great care should be devoted to pronunciation, and the Greek sentences should always be read aloud both in the preparation of the lessons and in the work of the classroom. In this way the language will be learned not only by the eye, but also by the ear, and will be fixed much more firmly in the memory. The student should try to read the Greek sentences with expression, thinking of the meaning as he reads. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 13 LESSON II Accent 9. The Greek accents indicated in ancient times not stress (what we call accent), but musical pitch. But since it is impossible for us to reproduce the original pronuncia- tion, the best we can do is to place the stress of the voice upon the syllable where the accent occurs, and give up any distinction in pronunciation between the acute, the circum- flex and the grave. Having adopted this method of pro- nunciation, we should adhere to it rigidly; for unless some one method is adhered to, the language can never be fixed in the memory. It is also important to learn to write the accents correctly, since the accents serve to distinguish various forms from one another and are therefore a great help and not a hindrance in the learning of the language. 10. Preliminary Definitions The last syllable of a word is called the ultima; the one before that, the penwlt; and the one before that, the ante- penult. Thus, in the word λαμβάνομεν, the ultima is -μεν, the penult is -vo-, and the antepenult is -βα-. Syllables containing a long vowel or a diphthong are long. But final at and ou (that is, at and oc coming at the very end of a word) are considered short so far as accent 15 concerned. Thus the last syllable of ἀνθρώπους is long because it contains the diphthong ov ; the last syllable of ἄνθρωποι is short because the ot is here final ou; the last syllable of ἀνθρώποις is long because here the or has a letter after it and so, not being final ou, is long like any other diphthong. It will be remembered that ε and o are always short, and nand w always long. The quantity (long or short) of a, @ 14 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK t, and v, must be learned by observation in the individual cases. 11. General Rules of Accent 1. The acute (’) can stand only on one of the last three syllables of a word; the circumflex (7) only on one of the last two; and the grave (ἢ) only on the last. Examples: This rule would be violated by ἄποστολος, for here the accent would stand on the fourth syllable from the end. It would also be violated by πιστεῦομεν, for here the circumflex would stand on the third syllable from the end. 2. The circumflex accent cannot stand on a short syllable. 3. If the ultima is long, (a) the antepenult cannot be accented, (b) the penult, if it is accented at all, must have the acute. Examples: Rule 3a would be violated by ἀπόστολῳ or ἀπόστολου, because in these cases the ultima is long ; but it is not violated by ἀπόστολε or ἀπόστολοι, because here the ultima is short. Rule 80 would be violated by δοῦλου or δοῦλων, but is not violated by δοῦλος or δοῦλοι. 4. Ifthe ultimais short, a long penult, if itis accented at all, must have the circumflex. Examples: This rule would be violated by δούλε or δούλοι ; but it is not violated by δούλου, because here the ultima is not short, or by vids, because here, although a long penult comes before a short ultima, the penult is not accented at all. The rule does not say that a long penult before a short ultima must have the circumflex, but only that if it is accented at all it must have the circumflex rather than some other kind of accent. 5. A long ultima can have either the acute or the circumflex. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 15 Examples: ἀδελφοῦ and ἀδελφού both conform to the gen- eral rules of accent. Further observation, based on other considerations, is necessary in order to tell which is right. 6. An acute accent on the last syllable of a word is changed to the grave when followed, without intervening mark of punctuation, by other words in a sentence. Examples: ἀδελφός is right where ἀδελφός stands alone; but ἀδελφός ἀποστόλου violates the rule—it should be ἀδελφὸς ἀποστόλου. 12. It should be observed that these general rules of accent do not tell what the accenting of any individual word is to be; they only tell what it cannot be. In other words, they merely fix certain limits within which the accenting of Greek words must remain. What the accent actually is, within these limits, can be determined in part by the special rules which follow, but in very many cases must be learned by observation of the individual words. Thus if we have a form Avoyevov to accent, the general rules would permit λυομενού or λυομενοῦ or λυομένου ; any other way of accenting would violate the general rules. But which of the three possibilities is actually to be chosen is a matter for further observation. Or if we have a form mpocwrov to accent, the general rules would permit πρόσωπον, προσῶπον OY προσωπόν. There are two special rules which help to fix the accent of many words more closely than it is fixed by the general rules. They are as follows: 13. Rule of Verb Accent Verbs have recessive accent. Explanation: The rule means that, in verbs, the accent goes back as far as the general rules of accent will permit. This rule definitely fixes the accent of any verb form; it is not necessary to know what verb the form is derived from 16 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK or to have any other information whatever. Knowing that it is a verb form, one needs only to look at the ultima. If the ultima is short, an acute must be placed on the ante- penult (supposing the word to have as many as three syllables); if the ultima is long, an acute must be placed on the penult. Examples: Suppose a verb form ἐγινωσκου is to be accented. In accordance with the rule of verb accent, the accent is trying to get as far back as the general rules of accent will permit. But ἔγινωσκου would violate Rule 1; and, since the ultima is long, éyivwaoxov would violate Rule 3a. Therefore the penult must be accented. But ἐγινῶσκου would violate Rule 3b. Therefore ἐγινώσκου is correct. On the other hand, if a verb form ἐγινωσκε is to be accented, although éywwoxe is forbidden by Rule 1, ἐγίνωσκε 15 permitted; and since verbs have recessive accent, that accenting, ἐγίνωσκε, is correct, and ἐγινῶσκε or ἐγινωσκέ would be wrong. If the verb has only two syl- lables, Rule 4 often comes into play. Thus if the verb form owe is to be accented, the rule of recessive verb accent decrees that the former of the two syllables shall be ac- cented. But Rule 4 decrees that the accent shall be not σὠζε but σῶζε. 14. Rule of Noun Accent In nouns, the accent remains on the same syllable as in the nominative singular, so nearly as the general rules of accent will permit. Explanation: This rule differs from the rule of verb accent in that it does not of itself fix the accent of noun forms. The accent on the nominative singular (the form given in the vocabularies) must be learned by observation for every noun separately, just as the spelling of the word must be learned. So much is merely a part of the learning of the vocabularies. But when once the accent on the 4 : id . ee ee ee a ὅν NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 17 nominative singular has been given, the accent on the other forms of the noun is fixed by the rule. Examples: (1) If there be a noun λογος, neither the general rules of accent in §11 nor the rule of noun accent will deter- mine whether the accent is λόγος or Aoyds. But once it has been determined that the accent is λόγος, then the accent on the other forms of the noun can be determined. The other forms, without the accent, are λογου, Aoyw, λογον, oye, λογοι, λογων, λογοις, λογους. On every one of these forms the acute will stand on the penult; since (a) the rule of noun accent decrees that the accent remains there if the general rules of accent permit, and since (b) the general rules of accent never forbid the accent to be placed on a penult, and since (c) Rule 2 decrees that only an acute accent can stand on a short syllable. (2) In the case of a noun οἶκος, its various forms being after the analogy of λόγος above, (a) and (b) of the consid- erations mentioned above with regard to λόγος still hold. But (c) does not hold, since here the penult is not short but long. In this case, Rules 3b and 4 will determine when the accent is acute and when it is circumflex; when the ultima is long, the accent (on the penult) will be acute, and when the ultima is short, the accent (on the penult) will be cir- cumflex. Thus οἶκος, οἴκου, οἴκῳ, οἶκον, οἶκε, οἶκοι, οἴκων, οἴκοις, οἴκους. (3) In the case of ἃ noun ἄνθρωπος the accent is trying in every other form to get back to the antepenult, in ac- cordance with the rule of noun accent, since it is the ante- penult which is accented in the nominative singular. But where the ultima is long, the accent cannot get back to the antepenult, since that would violate Rule 3a. The nearest syllable to the antepenult which it can reach in these cases is the penult. The rule of noun accent decrees that that 18 NEW. TESTAMENT GREEK nearest syllable is the one upon which the accent must stand. But since the ultima is long in these cases, Rule 3b decrees that the accent (upon the penult) shall be an acute not a circumflex. Thus ἄνθρωπος, ἀνθρώπου, ἀνθρώπῳ, ἄνθρωπον, ἄνθρωπε, ἄνθρωποι, ἀνθρώπων, ἀνθρώποις, ἀνθρώπους. (4) In the case οἵ a noun ὁδός the accent will stand in every form upon the ultima, since the general rules of accent never prevent the accent from standing on an ultima. If the ultima is short the accent must of course be acute. But if the ultima is long, the accent, so far as the general rules are concerned, can be either acute or circumflex. In these cases, therefore, the rules so far given will not determine which accent is to be used. Thus ὁδός, ὁδόν, ὁδέ, ὁδοί. But whether 6600, 66@, ὁδών, ὁδοίς, ὁδούς, or ὁδοῦ, ὁδῷ, ὁδῶν, ὁδοῖς, ὁδοῦς are correct must be left for future de- termination. The decision is part of the learning of the declension of this particular class of nouns. 15. Exercises (In all written exercises, the breathings and accents should be put in immediately after each word has been written just as the 1’s are dotted and the t’s crossed in English. Itis just as wrong to wait until the end of a whole paradigm or a whole sentence to add the breathings and accents as it would be to wait similarly in English before one crosses the t’s.) I. Write the following verb forms with the accent, and then pronounce them: 1. ἐλυομεν, ἐλυομην, ἔλυσω. 2. ἐἔλυου, ἔλυε, ἐἔλυσαμην. 3. διδασκε, διδασκονται, διδασκομεθα (the final a is short). 4. λνε (the v here, as in all these forms beginning with Qu, is long), Avov, λυουσι (the final vis short). 5. Avoat, λυσω, λυετε. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 19 II. Accent the following forms of the nouns whose nominative singular is (1) ἀπόστολος, (2) κώμη, (3) πλοῖον: 1. ἀποστολοις, ἀποστολους, ἀποστολου, ἀποστολοι, ἀποσ- Tohw. 2. κωμαις, κωμαι, κωμας (a long), κωμῃ. 3. πλοια (final a short), πλοιων, πλοιοις, πλοιου, πλοιῳ, πλοιον. III. Are the following words accented correctly, so far as the general rules of accent are concerned? If not, tell in each case what rule (or rules) has been violated. Then accent each of the words in all the ways which the general rules of accent would permit. 1. ἔδιδομεν, ὥραι, πρόφηταις. 2. δόξῃ, ἐρῆμου, οὖρανον. 3. ἔρημος, βουλαί, λὺε. [Note: The student should apply the principles of accent in the study of all subsequent lessons, observing how the rules are followed, and never passing by the accenting of any word in the paradigms or exer- cises until it is thoroughly understood. In this way, correct accenting will soon become second nature, and the various logical steps by which it is arrived at will no longer need to be consciously formulated.] 20 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK LESSON ΠῚ Present Active Indicative 16. Vocabulary (The vocabularies should be learned after the paradigms and explanatory parts of the lessons, but before the exer- cises.) βλέπω, I see. λαμβάνω, I take. γινώσκω, I know. λέγω, 1 say. γράφω, I write. λύω, 1 loose, I destroy. διδάσκω, I teach. ἔχω, 1 have. 17. The Greek verb has tense, voice, and mood, like the verb in other languages. The present tense (in the indica- tive) refers to present time; the active voice represents the subject as acting instead of being acted upon; the zndicative mood makes an assertion, in distinction, for example, from a command or a wish. 18. The present active indicative of the verb λύω, 1 loose, is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. λύω, TL loose or I am loosing. 2. Aves, thou loosest or thou art loosing. 3. λύει, he looses or he zs loosing. 1. λύομεν, we loose or we are loosing. 2. λύετε, ye loose or ye are loosing. 3. λύουσι, they loose or they are loosing. 19. It will be observed that the distinctions between first person (person speaking), second person (person spoken to), third person (person spoken of), and between singular and plural numbers, which in English are indicated for the NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 21 most part by subject-pronouns, are indicated in Greek by the endings. Thus no pronoun is necessary to translate we loose into Greek; the we is sufficiently indicated by the ending -ομεν. 20. The part of the verb which remains constant throughout the conjugation and has the various endings added to it is called the stem. Thus the present stem of λύω is Av-. The present stem of a verb can be obtained by removing the final w from the form given in the vocabu- lary. Thus the present stem of λέγω, I say, is λεγ-. The conjugation of the present active indicative of any verb in the vocabulary can be obtained by substituting the present stem of that verb for λυ- and then adding the endings -w, “ELS, -El, -OMEV, -ETE, -ουσι, as they are given above. The primary personal endings, which would naturally stand in the tenses called primary tenses', were, it seems, originally as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. -μι 1. -μεν 2. “-σι 2. -τε τὶ ὃ. - -ν»τὶ Between the stem and these personal endings was placed a variable vowel which before μ and v was o and before other letters «. But.in the present active, at least in the singu- lar, this scheme is not carried out, and the beginner is ad- vised for the present simply to regard -w, -εἰς, -€L, τομεν, -ετε, -ovot as the endings which by their addition to the stem indicate the various persons and numbers. 21. In the present tense there is in Greek no distinction between J loose, which simply represents the action as taking place in present time, and I am loosing, which calls 1The primary tenses are the present, the future, and the perfect; the secondary tenses are the imperfect, the aorist, and the pluperfect. Ze NEW TESTAMENT GREEK attention to the continuance of the action. Both of these ideas, therefore, should be connected with the Greek form λύω. The distinction between the two will become ex- ceedingly important when we pass over to past time; for there Greek makes the distinction even more sharply than English. 22. The second person, you loose or you are loosing, in English may of course be either singular or plural, and may be translated by the student either by Aves or by λύετε except where the context makes plain which is meant. Where it is desired, in the exercises, to indicate whether singular or plural is meant, the archaic forms thou loosest, etc., and ye loose, etc., will be used. 23; Exercises (All English-Greek exercises should be written.) 1. βλέπεις, γινώσκεις, λαμβάνεις. 2. γράφει, ἔχει, λέγει. 3. λύει, διδάσκει, βλέπει. 4. λαμβάνομεν, ἔχομεν, γινώσκομεν. ὅ. βλέπετε, λέγετε, γράφετε. 6. διδάσκουσι, λαμβάνουσι, λύουσι. 7. γινώσκετε, γινώσκεις, γινώσκομεν. 8. βλέπομεν, διδάσκουσι, λέγει. 9. ἔχεις, βλέπουσι, λαμβάνομεν.

Order of Words. Movable ν. 24. Vocabulary ἀδελφός, ὁ, a brother. ἱερόν, τό, a temple. ἄνθρωπος, ὁ, a man. καί, conj., and. 3 it e ’ ε ἀπόστολος, ὁ, an apostle. λόγος, 6, a word. δοῦλος, ὁ, a slave, a servant. νόμος, ὃ, a law. δῶρον, τό, a gift. οἶκος, ὁ, a house. θάνατος, ὁ, a death. vids, ὃ, @ son. 25. There are three declensions in Greek. The second declension is given before the first for purposes of con- venience, since it is easier, and has a larger number of common nouns. | 26. There is no indefinite article in Greek, and so ἀδελφός means either brother or a brother (usually the latter). Greek has, however, a definite article, and where the Greek article does not appear, the definite article should not be inserted in the English translation, Thus ἀδελφός does not mean the brother. In the plural, English, like Greek, has no indefinite article. ἄνθρωποι, therefore, means simply men. But it does not mean the men. 27. The noun in Greek has gender, number, and case. 28. There are three genders: masculine, feminine, and neuter. The gender of nouns must often be learned by observation of the individual nouns. Butnearly all nouns of the second declension ending in -os are masculine; and all nouns of the second declension in τὸν are neuter. The gender is indicated in the vocabulary by the article placed after the 24 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK noun. The masculine article, 6, indicates masculine gender; the feminine article, 7, feminine gender; and the neuter article, 76, neuter gender. 29. There are two numbers, singular and plural. Verbs agree with their subject in number. 30. There are five cases; nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, and vocative. 31. The declension of ἄνθρωπος, 6, a man, is as follows: Singular Plural Nom. ἄνθρωπος, a man. N.V. ἄνθρωποι, men. Gen. ἀνθρώπου, of a man. G. ἀνθρώπων, of men. Dat. ἀνθρώπῳ, toorforaman. D. ἀνθρώποις, to or for men. Acc. ἄνθρωπον, a man. A. ἀνθρώπους, men. Voc. ἄνθρωπε, man. 32. The student should observe carefully how the principles of accent apply to this noun and all the others. In oral practice and recitations the stress in pronunciation should be placed carefully on the syllables where the accent appears. 33. The stem of a noun is that part of the noun which remains constant when the various endings are added. The stem of ἄνθρωπος is ἀνθρωπο-, and all other second-declen- sion nouns, like ἄνθρωπος, have stems ending in o. The second declension, therefore, is sometimes called the o- declension. But this final o of the stem becomes so much disguised when the endings enter into combination with it, that it is more convenient to regard ἀνθρωπ- as the stem and -os, -ov, etc., as the endings. It should at any rate be observed, however, that o (with the long of it, w) is the characteristic vowel in the last syllable of second-declen- sion nouns. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 25 34. The subject of a sentence is put in the nominative case. Thus ἀπόστολος γινώσκει means an apostle knows. The object of a transitive verb is placed in the accusative case. Thus βλέπω λόγον means I see a word. 35. The genztive case expresses possession. Thus λόγοι ἀποστόλων means words of apostles or apostles’ words. But the genitive has many other important uses, which must be learned by observation. The functions of the Latin ablative are divided, in Greek, between the genitive and the dative. 36. The dative case is the case of the indirect object. Thus λέγω λόγον ἀποστόλοις means I say a word to apostles. But the dative has many other important uses which must be learned by observation. 37. The vocative case is the case of direct address. Thus ἀδελφέ, βλέπομεν means brother, we see. In the plural the vocative case in words of all declensions is in form like the nominative. The vocative plural may therefore be omitted in repeating paradigms. 38. Learn the declension of λόγος, 6, a word, and of δοῦλος, 6, a servant, in $557. These nouns differ from ἄνθρωπος only in that the accent is different in the nominative singular and therefore the application of the general rules of accent works out differently. 39. The declension of vids, 6, a son, is as follows: Sing. Plur N. υἱός N.V. υἱοί G. υἱοῦ G. υἱῶν D. vid 1). υἱοῖς Α. υἱόν Α. υἱοὺς Ν. υἱέ 26 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 40. Here the rule of noun accent decrees that the accent must be on the ultima in all cases, because it was there in the nominative singular. But which accent shall it be? The general rules of accent answer this question where the ultima is short; for of course only an acute, not a circumflex, can stand on a short syllable. But where the ultima is long, the general rules of accent will permit either an acute or a circumflex. A special rule is therefore necessary. It is as follows: In the second declension, when the ultima is accented at all, it has the circumflex in the genitive and dative of both numbers, elsewhere the acute. Explanation: The “‘elsewhere’”’ really refers only to the accusative plural, because in the nominative and vocative singular and plural and in the accusative singular the general rules of accent would forbid the circumflex, the ultima being short in these cases. 41. The declension of δῶρον, τό, a gift, is as follows: are. Plur. N.V. δῶρον - N.V. δῶρα G. δώρου G. δώρων D. δώρῳ D. δώροις A. δῶρον A. δῶρα 42. It will be observed that δῶρον is a neuter noun. In all neuter nouns, of all declensions, the vocative and accusative of both numbers are like the nominative, and the nominative, vocative and accusative plural always end in short a. 43. Order of Words The normal order of the sentence in Greek is like that in English—subject, verb, object. There is no’ special ee ee ee Ὁ ee ee ene © NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 27 tendency, as in Latin, to put the verb at the end. But Greek can vary the order for purposes of emphasis or euphony much more freely than English. Thus the sentence, an apostle says a word,is in Greek normally ἀπόστολος λέγει λόγον. But λέγει ἀπόστολος λόγον and λόγον λέγει ἀπόστολος are both perfectly possible. The English translation must be determined by observing the endings, not by observing the order. 44. Movable v When the ουσι of the third person plural of the verb comes either before a vowel or at the end of a sentence, a ν, called movable v,is added to it. Thus βλέπουσιν ἀποστόλους. Sometimes the movable v is added even before a word that begins with a consonant. Thus either λύουσι δούλους or λύουσιν δούλους is correct. It must not be supposed that this movable ν occurs at the end of every verb form ending in a vowel when the next word begins with a vowel. On the contrary, it occurs only in a very few forms, which must be learned as they appear. 45.

All nouns of the first declension ending in a or ἢ are feminine. 48. The declension of ὥρα, ἡ, an hour, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. V. ὥρα N.V. ὧραι G. ὥρας G. wpa D. dpa D. ὥραις A. ὥραν A. @pas 49. The stem of ὥρα is wpa-, and the first declension is sometimes called the a- declension, because its stems end in a. Since, however, the final vowel of the stem enters 30 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK into various combinations with the endings it is more convenient for the beginner to regard wp- as the stem and -a, -as, etc., as the endings. It should be noticed that a is characteristic of this declension as o is of the second declension. 50. It should be observed that the a in the nominative, genitive, and accusative singular, and in the accusative plural is long. 51. The genitive plural shows an exception to the rule of noun accent. The rule of noun accent would require the accent to remain on the same syllable as in the nominative singular. But nouns of the first declension have a circum- flex on the ultima in the genitive plural no matter where the accent was in the nominative singular. 52. Thedeclension of βασιλεία, ἡ, a kingdom, is exactly like that of ὥρα, since here also there is a long accented penult in the nominative singular followed by a long a in the ultima. 53. The declension of ἀλήθεια, ἡ, truth, is as follows: Sing Plur. N. V. ἀλήθεια N. V. ἀλήθειαι G. ἀληθείας G. ἀληθειῶν D. ἀληθείᾳ D. ἀληθείαις A. ἀλήθειαν A. ἀληθείας This noun has a short a in the ultima in the nominative singular, and when in the first declension the a is short in the nominative singular it is also short in the accusative singular. In the accusative plural the a is long in all first- declension nouns. The accent follows the noun rule every- where except in the genitive plural (see $51). NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 31 54. The declension of δόξα, ἡ, glory, is as follows: Sing. y Plur. N. V. δόξα N. V. δόξαι G. δόξης G. δοξῶν ) | D. δόξῃ D. δόξαις Α. δόξαν Α. δόξας ἑ 55. The ain the nominative singular of first-declension nouns is changed to ἡ in the genitive and dative singular except after ε, ει, or p. 56. The declension of γραφή, ἡ, a writing, a Scripture, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. V. γραφή N. V. γραφαί G. γραφῆς | G. γραφῶν D. γραφῇ D. γραφαῖς A. γραφήν A. γραφάς 57. When a first-declension noun ends in ἢ in the nominative singular, the 7 is retained throughout the singular. But the plurals of all first-declension nouns are alike. 58. In the first declension (exactly as in the second, see §40), when the ultima is accented at all, it has the circumflex in the genitives and datives of both numbers, elsewhere the acute. 59.

Note that long a not ἢ stands in the feminine of these adjectives when the preced- ing letter is p or a vowel (compare §55). The accent in the genitive plural feminine of all adjectives of the second and first declension follows the regular noun rule and not the special rule for nouns of the first declension (§51). 63. The declension of the article is as follows: Sing. Plur. Mase. Fem. Neut. Masc. Fem. Neut. N. ὁ ἡ τό N. οἱ αἱ τά G τοῦ τῆς τοῦ G. τῶν τῶν τῶν τῷ τῇ τῷ D. τοῖς ταῖς τοῖς Α τόν τήν τό ΔΑ. τοὺς τάς τά 64. The forms 6, ἡ, οἱ, ai are proclitics. A proclitic is a word that goes so closely with the following word as to have no accent of its own. 65. Note that except for (1) these irregular proclitic forms, (2) the form τό in the nominative and accusative singular (instead of τόν), and (3) the absence of the vocative, the article is declined like the adjective ἀγαθός. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 35 66. Agreement Adjectives, including the article, agree with the nouns that they modify, in gender, number, and case. Examples: (1) ὁ λόγος, τοῦ λόγου, τῷ λόγῳ, βλέπω τὸν λόγον, οἱ λόγοι, τῶν λόγων, τοῖς λόγοις, βλέπω τοὺς λόγους. (2) τὸ δῶρον, τοῦ δώρου, etc. (3) ἡ ὥρα, τῆς ὥρας, τῇ ὥρᾳ, βλέπω τὴν ὥραν, ai ὧραι, etc. (4) ἡ ὁδός (see 860), τῆς ὁδοῦ, τῇ ὁδῷ, βλέπω τὴν ὁδόν, αἱ ὁδοί, τῶν ὁδῶν, ταῖς ὁδοῖς, βλέπω τὰς ὁδούς. (5) καλὸς λόγος, etc., καλὴ ὥρα, καλὴ ὁδός, etc. 67. Use of the Article The use of the article in Greek corresponds roughly to the use of the definite article in English. Thus λόγος means a word; ὁ λόγος means the word; λόγοι means words; ot λόγοι means the words. The differences between the Greek and the English use of the article must be learned by observation, as they occur. For the present, the presence or absence of the Greek article should always be carefully indicated in the English translation. Attributive and Predicate Use of Adjectives 68. Adjectives are used in two distinct ways: (1) attributively, (2) predicatively. In the phrase the good word, the adjective good is an attributive adjective; it tells what word we are mentioning. We are not mentioning all words or any word, but only the good word. In the sentence, the word is good, the adjective good is a predicate adjective; with the verb zs it makes an assertion about the subject, the word. 69. In Greek, the distinction between the attributive and the predicate adjective is of vastly more importance 36 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK than in English; indeed, as will be observed later, some-of — the most important.and characteristic parts of Greek gram=. mar are based upon this distinction. 70. The good word can be expressed in two common ways in Greek—either by ὁ ἀγαθὸς λόγος or by ὁ λόγος ὁ ἀγαθός. It will be observed that what is characteristic ~ about this atiributive position of the Greek adjective is that the adjective comes immediately after the article. The former of the two alternatives, 6 ἀγαθὸς λόγος, is just like English; it has the order (1) article, (2) attributive adjec- tive, (3) noun, and is a literal translation of the good word. The latter of the two alternatives, ὁ λόγος ὁ ἀγαθός, means literally the word—namely the good one. But it is of course vastly commoner than this cumbersome usage is in English, and like 6 ἀγαθὸς λόγος should be translated simply the good word. 71. The word is good can be expressed in two ways in Greek—either by ὁ λόγος ἀγαθός or by ἀγαθὸς ὁ λόγος (the simple copula, meaning 18, can be omitted). What is char-_ acteristic about this predicate position of the adjective in Greek is that the adjective does not come immediately after the article. 72. The matter can be summarized as follows: Attributive Position ᾿ ἀγαθὸς λόγος of the Adjective or = the good word. (ὁ λόγος ὁ ἀγαθός ὁ λόγος ἀγαθός or = the word is good. ἀγαθὸς ὁ λόγος 73. The student should fix this distinction in his mind by thoughtful reading aloud of the above and similar phrases, until ἀγαθὸς ὁ λόγος, for example, comes to mean to Predicate Position of the Adjective NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 37 _ him, even without conscious translation, good (is) the word, and comes to be dissociated entirely from the. idea the good word. If this advice be heeded, a solid foundation _ will have been laid for the mastery of a large part of Greek syntax. 74. It should be observed that the distinction between the attributive and the predicate position of the adjective can be made in Greek only when the noun has the article. ἀγαθὸς λόγος or λόγος ἀγαθός (the noun here not having the article) may mean either a good word (attributive) or ὦ word 18 good (predicate). 75. Substantive Use of the Adjective The adjective may be used as a noun, especially with the article. Examples: (1) ἀγαθός may mean a good man; ἀγαθή, a good woman; ἀγαθόν, a good thing; ἀγαθοί, good men; ἀγαθαί, good women; ἀγαθά, good things. (2) ὁ ἀγαθός means the good man; ἡ ἀγαθή, the good woman; τὸ ἀγαθόν, the good thing; ot ἀγαθοί, the good men; at ἀγαθαί, the good women; τὰ ἀγαθά, the good things. Sometimes, in the plural masculine, the English language, like Greek, can use the adjective as a noun without adding the word men. Thus οἱ ἀγαθοί may be translated the good meaning the good men or the good people; οἱ νεκροί, the dead, meaning the dead people, etc. 76.

Nouns of the first declension ending in -ys are masculine. 79. The declension of προφήτης, ὃ, a prophet, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. προφήτης N. V. προφῆται G. προφήτου G. προφητῶν 1). προφήτῃ D. προφήταις A. προφήτην Α. προφήτας V. προφῆτα 40 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK It will be observed that although προφήτης is masculine it is a true first-declension noun, being just like a feminine noun of the first declension except in the nominative, genitive, and vocative singular. μαθητής is declined like προφήτης, except for the accent. Prepositions 80. Prepositions express relationship. Thus in the sen- tence, the book is in the desk, the preposition 7n expresses a certain relationship between the book and the desk. In the sentence, the book 18 on the desk, a different relationship is expressed (by the preposition on). In English, nouns standing after prepositions are always in the same case (the ‘objective’ case). But in Greek different prepositions take different cases. 81. The preposition ἐν, meaning in, always takes the dative case. Thus zn the house is expressed by ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ ; in the truth by ἐν τῇ ἀληθείᾳ, etc. The preposition εἰς, meaning znto, on the other hand, always takes the accusa- tive. Thus into the house is expressed by eis τὸν οἶκον. Finally, the preposition ἀπό always takes the genitive. Thus from the house is expressed by ἀπὸ τοῦ οἴκου. 82. These three prepositions illustrate the general prin- ciple that the genitive is the case of separation, the dative the case of rest if a place, ‘and the accusative the case_of motion toward a place. Prepositions expressing separation naturally take the genitive, prepositions expressing rest in a place naturally take the dative, and prepositions expressing motion toward a place naturally take the accusative. 83. But a very great number of usages of prepositions cannot be reduced to any such general rule. Thus many NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 41 prepositions that do not express any idea of separation take the genitive. 84. It should be observed that ἐν, eis, and ἐκ are all proclitics (see § 64). 85. ἐν, eis, ἐκ, and ἀπό each take only one case, and πρός 15 not commonly used with any case except the ac- cusative. But many other prepositions take several cases. Those that take several cases often have quite a different meaning when used with one case from their meaning when used with another case. Thus διά with the genitive means through; διά with accusative, on account of: μετά with the genitive means with; μετά with the accusative, after. 86. In studying the vocabularies it is quite insufficient to learn how the prepositions are to be translated, but it is also necessary to learn with what case they are construed in any particular meaning. Thus it is quite insufficient to say that ἐν means πη. What should rather be said is that *‘éy-with-the-dative” means in. The phrase “éy-with-the- dative’ should form in the student’s mind one absolutely indivisible idea; ἐν should never be thought of apart from its: case. In the same way, but still more obviously, it is insufficient to say that μετά means with or after. What should rather be said is that ‘werd-with-the-genitive’’ means with, and that ‘“‘ywerd-with-the-accusative” means after. This same method of study should be applied to all prepositions. 87. A further important principle is that of precision in learning the meanings of prepositions. It is true that no one English word or phrase is capable of translating in all in- stances a single Greek preposition. Sometimes, for example, ἐν with the dative cannot be translated by zn in English. But the proper method is to learn first the usual meaning 42 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK before proceeding to the unusual. A reversal of this method will lead to hopeless confusion. Let the student, therefore, so far as prepositions are concerned, adhere for the present rigidly to the translations given in the vocabu- laries. In that way a feeling for the really fundamental meaning of the prepositions will be formed, and further on the derived meanings can be studied without confusion. 88. Finally, the importance of this subject should be noticed. Few things are more necessary for a correct under- standing of the New Testament than a precise acquaint- ance with the common prepositions. The prepositions therefore should always be singled out from the vocabularies for special attention, and when new prepositions are learned the old ones should be reviewed. 89.

Personal Pronouns. Present Indicative of εἰμί. 90. Vocabulary αὐτός, ἡ, 0, pron., he. éyw, pron., 1. δέ, conj., but, and. εἰμί, 1 am. σύ, pron., thou. 91. The conjunction 6€is postpositive—that is, it cannot stand first in its clause. Ordinarily it stands second. Example: ὁ δοῦλος γινώσκει TOV ἀπόστολον, ὁ δὲ ἀπόστολος βλέπει τὸν κύριον, the servant knows the apostle and the apostle sees the Lord. Enclitics 92. An enclitic is a word that goes so closely with the preceding word as to have normally no accent of its own. Enclitics are thus to be distinguished from proclitics, which go so closely with the following words as to have no accent of their own (see §64). Proclitics give rise to no special rules of accent; they simply have no accent and produce no changes in the accenting of preceding or follow- ing words. But the case is very different with enclitics, which give rise to the following rules: I. Accenting of the word before an enclitic: (1) The word before an enclitic does not change an acute on the last syllable to a grave. Example: ἀδελφὸς μου is incorrect; ἀδελφός μου 15 correct. (2) If the word before an enclitic has an acute on the NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 45 antepenult, or a circumflex on the penult, it takes an addi- tional accent (an acute) on the ultima. Examples: ἄνθρωπός pov, δῶρόν σου, ἄνθρωπός ἐστιν, δῶρόν ἐστιν. (3) Ifthe word before an enclitic is itself a proclitic or an enclitic it has an acute on the ultima. Examples: εἴς με, ἄνθρωπός pov ἐστιν. \ II. Cases in which an enclitic has an accent of its own: (1) An enclitic of two syllables retains its own accent when it follows a word that has an acute on the penult. Example: ὥρα ἐστίν is correct because ἐστίν is an enclitic of two syllables. ὥρα μου, on the other hand, is correct be- cause μου is an enclitic of only one syllable. (2) An enclitic retains its accent when there is empha- sis on the enclitic or when the enclitic begins a clause. 93. It may help to fix these rules in the memory, if the enclitic in every case be regarded as forming one word with the word that precedes it and then the general rules of accent be applied. ‘These enclitic rules may then be re- garded as attempts to avoid violations of the general rules. Thus if ἄνθρωποσεστιν or ἄνθρωποσμου or ἄνθρωποσμε be regarded as one word the accenting of that word violates the general rule that the accent cannot get further back than the antepenult; and δῶρονμου violates the general rule that the circumflex cannot get further back than the penult. Something, therefore, needs to be done. And what is actually done is to put in an additional accent to break up the long series of unaccented syllables. Following out a similar principle, the accent of ὥραεστιν would become ὥράεστιν. But two acutes were not desired in immediate juxtaposition in a single word. Therefore in this case an 40 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK alternative way out of the difficulty was adopted, and the enclitic was made to retain its own accent. It should be observed, however, that this way of con- sidering the matter will not quite work out in all cases; for ὥραμου, for example, would violate the general rule that the accent cannot stand on the antepenult if the ultima is long. Personal Pronouns 04. The declension of the personal pronoun of the first person is as follows: Sing. N. ἐγώ, I. N G. ἐμοῦ or μου, of me. G. 1). ἐμοί or pot, to or for me. D A. ἐμέ or pe, me. A Plur. . ἡμεῖς, WE. ἡμῶν, of US. . ἡμῖν, to or for us. . ἡμᾶς, US. The forms ἐμοῦ, ἐμοί, éué.are the forms used when emphasis is desired. The unemphatic forms, pov, μοι, με, are enclitic. 95. The declension of the personal pronoun of the second person is as follows: Sing. N. σύ, thou. G. σοῦ, of thee. D. σοί, to or for thee. A. σέ, thee. ΞΘ 2 The forms σοῦ, σοί, and σέ are enclitic except when they are emphatic. When they are emphatic, they aaa the accents given in the paradigm. Plur. . ὑμεῖς, Ye. . ὑμῶν, of you. . ὑμῖν, to or for you. ὑμᾶς, you. ES ae ee Te ae Oe μα NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 47 96. ‘The declension of the personal pronoun of the third person is as follows: Sing. M. Ἐ, Ν. Ν. αὐτός, he. αὐτή, she. αὐτό, τί. G. αὐτοῦ, of him. αὐτῆς, of her. αὐτοῦ, of τί. 1). αὐτῷ, toorforhim. αὐτῇ, to or for her. αὐτῷ, toorfor τί. A. αὐτόν, him. αὐτήν, her. αὐτό, τί. Plur. M. ΕΒ, Ν. N. αὐτοί, they. αὐταί, they. αὐτά, they. G. αὐτῶν, of them. αὐτῶν, of them. αὐτῶν, of them. 1). αὐτοῖς, to or for αὐταῖς, to or for αὐτοῖς, to or for them. them. them. A. αὐτούς, them. αὐτάς, them. αὐτά, them. It will be observed that the declension of αὐτός is like that of ἀγαθός (omitting the vocative), except for the form - avroin the nominative and accusative singular neuter. 97. The Use of Pronouns (1) A pronoun is a word that stands instead of a noun. Example: The sentence, J see the disciple and teach him, means the same thing as I see the disciple and teach the dis- ciple. The pronoun him stands instead of the second occur- rence of the noun disciple. (2) The noun for which a pronoun stands is called its antecedent. Thus in the sentence, I see the disciple and teach him, the antecedent of him is disciple. (3) A pronoun agrees with its antecedent in gender and number. 48 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Examples: \a) βλέπω τὸν μαθητὴν καὶ διδάσκω αὐτόν, I see the disci- ple and teach him. Here μαθητὴν is the antecedent of αὐτόν, and since μαθητὴν is of masculine gender and singular num- ber αὐτόν also is masculine singular. (Ὁ) μένω ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ καὶ γινώσκω αὐτόν, I remain in the house and know it. Here οἴκῳ is the antecedent of αὐτόν, and since οἴκῳ is of masculine gender and singular number αὐτόν also is masculine singular. In English the neuter pronoun 1} is used, because the noun house, like all nouns denoting inanimate objects, is neuter in English. But in Greek the word for house is masculine, and therefore the masculine pronoun is used in referring to it. Hence the translations, he, she, etc., given in the paradigm above for the masculine and feminine of the Greek pronoun of the third person are correct only when the antecedents are nouns denoting persons. In other cases, the pronouns will be neuter in English even when they are masculine or feminine in Greek. It will be observed, further, that the pronoun does not agree with its antecedent in case, but only in gender and number. In the sentence just given the antecedent οἴκῳ is dative after the preposition ἐν, whereas αὐτόν has its own construction, being the object of the verb γινώσκω. (c) ἡ ἐκκλησία διδάσκει ἐμέ, καὶ ἔγὼ διδάσκω αὐτήν, the Church teaches me and I teach tt. (d) βλέπω τοὺς μαθητὰς Kal διδάσκω αὐτούς, I see the dis- ciples and teach them. (6) βλέπω τὰ τέκνα Kal διδάσκω αὐτά, I see the children and teach them. It will be observed that in English in the plural the personal pronoun is the same in form for all three genders, whereas in Greek it varies. (| (4) The personal pronouns are not used in the nominative |\case unless there is emphasis upon them. ee ee ee eee 7 eee “ὐν ἡ, _ EE Se a re ae NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 49 (a) The reason for this rule is that the ending of the verb indicates sufficiently whether the subject is first, second, or third person. Thus λέγω means 1 say. The ἐγώ, there- fore, is not put in unless there is emphasis upon it. | (b) Emphasis is usually caused by contrast. Thus in | the sentence ἐγὼ λέγω, σὺ δὲ γράφεις, ] say, but you write, eyw and ov are emphatic because they are contrasted with each other. And in the sentence ἐγὼ λέγω, “1 say,’ the natural inference is that some one else does not say. The insertion of the emphatic ἐγώ naturally suggests an implied (though here not an expressed) contrast. (c) αὐτός is almost never used as a personal pronoun in the nominative case. The place of it, in the nominative, 15. taken usually by certain other words, and it itself has in the | nominative case a use distinct from its use as a personal || pronoun. These matters will be reserved for future study. (5) To express possession the unemphatic forms of the personal pronouns should be used, and the English phrases my word and the like should be turned around into the form, the word of me, before they are translated into Greek. Examples: My word, ὁ λόγος μου; thy word, ὁ λόγος σου; his word, ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ; her word, ὁ λόγος αὐτῆς; 18 word, ὁ λόγος αὐτοῦ; their word, 6 λόγος αὐτῶν. If it is desired to emphasize the possessive idea—e. g., | “my word’’—a possessive adjective, which will be learned | later, is ordinarily used instead of the genitive of the per- | sonal pronoun. | (6) After prepositions, the emphatic forms of the personal pronouns are ordinarily used. Examples: ἐξ ἐμοῦ, not ἔκ μου ; am’ éuod,! not ἀπό μου; δι᾽ ἐμοῦ, not διά pov; ἐν ἐμοί, not ἔν μοι. But πρός με is com- mon. 1The final vowel of prepositions is frequently elided before words that begin with a vowel. ‘The elision is marked by an apostrophe. δ0 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Present Indicative of εἰμί 08. The present indicative of the verb εἰμί, J am,is as follows: Sing. 1. eiui, Lam. Plur. 1. ἐσμέν, we are. 2. εἶ, thou art. 2. éoré, yeare. ὃ. ἐστί(ν), he 18. 3. εἰσί(ν), they are. All these forms except εἶ are enclitic. The accents given in the paradigm occur only when required by the rules given above in §92. ἐστί(ν) and εἰσί(ν) have the movable ν (see §44). 99. The verb εἰμί takes a predicate nominative, not an accusative, to complete its meaning. fxamples: ὁ ἀπόστολος ἄνθρωπός ἐστιν, the apostle is a man; 6 ἀπόστολός ἐστιν ἀγαθός, the apostle is good. In the sentence, the apostle says the word, it is asserted that the apostle does something to the word; the word is therefore the object of the action denoted by the verb, and stands in the accusative case. But in the sentence, the apostle is a man, it is not asserted that the apostle does any- thing toa man. A man, therefore, stands here not in the accusative case but in the predicate nominative. 100.

The declension of ἐκεῖνος, that, is like the declension of adjectives in -os,-7,-ov, except that ἐκεῖνο stands instead of ἐκεῖνον in the nominative and accusative singular neuter. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 53 104. Use of οὗτος and ἐκεῖνος 1. οὗτος and ἐκεῖνος are frequently used with nouns. When they are so used, the noun with which they are used has the article, and they themselves stand in the predicate, not in the attributive, position (see §§68-74). Examples: This word, οὗτος ὁ λόγος or ὁ λόγος οὗτος; that word, ἐκεῖνος ὁ λόγος or ὁ λόγος ἐκεῖνος; I see this church, βλέπω ταύτην τὴν ἐκκλησίαν (or τὴν ἐκκλησίαν ταὐτην); these words, οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι ΟΥ̓ οἱ λόγοι οὗτοι; those words, ἐκεῖνοι οἱ λόγοι or οἱ λόγοι ἐκεῖνοι; this good word, οὗτος ὁ καλὸς λόγος Or ὁ καλὸς λόγος οὗτος. 2. οὗτος and ἐκεῖνος are frequently used by themselves, without nouns. Examples: οὗτος, this man (or this person); αὕτη, this woman; τοῦτο, this thing; οὗτοι, these men; αὗται, these women ; ταῦτα, these things. 105. Further Uses of αὐτός. In addition to its use as a personal pronoun of the third person, αὐτός is also used as follows: 1. It has an intensive use with nouns. When so used it stands in the predicate position. Examples: αὐτὸς ὁ ἀπόστολος or ὁ ἀπόστολος αὐτός, the apostle himself; αὐτὴ ἡ ἐκκλησία or ἡ ἐκκλησία αὐτή, the church itself ; αὐτὸ τὸ δῶρον or τὸ δῶρον αὐτό, the gift rtself. 2. It is often used with nouns to mean same. When so used it stands in the attributive position. Examples: ὁ αὐτὸς ἀπόστολος OY 6 ἀπόστολος ὁ αὐτός, the same apostle ; ἡ αὐτὴ ἐκκλησία or ἡ ἐκκλησία ἡ αὐτή, the same church, etc. 3. In its intensive use it often goes with pronouns or with the unexpressed subject of a verb. Examples: αὐτὸς ἔγὼ λέγω or αὐτὸς λέγω, I myself say; δ4 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK αὐτὸς σὺ λέγεις or αὐτὸς λέγεις, thou thyself sayest; αὐτὸς λέγει, he himself says; αὐτὴ λέγει, she herself says; αὐτὸ λέγει, τὶ 2tself says; αὐτοὶ ἡμεῖς λέγομεν or αὐτοὶ λέγομεν, we ourselves say; αὐτοὶ ὑμεῖς λέγετε OF αὐτοὶ λέγετε, Ye ψοιιγ- selves say ; αὐτοὶ λέγουσιν, they themselves say. 106. The principal uses of adjectives and of the pro- nouns studied thus far may be reviewed as follows: ὁ καλὸς λόγος. or ε ὁ λόγος ὁ καλός. The good word la καλὸς ὁ λόγος. or ὁ λόγος καλός. The word 18 good = wwe ae οὗτος ὁ λόγος. or ὁ λόγος οὗτος. This word zee pee ἐκεῖνος ὁ λόγος. or ὁ λόγος ἐκεῖνος. ie ὁ λόγος. That word τὸς The word ttself or ὁ λόγος αὐτός. ὁ αὐτὸς λόγος.

There are three voices in Greek: active, middle and passive. The active and the passive voices are used as in English. The middle voice represents the subject as acting in some way that concerns itself, or as acting upon some- thing that belongs to itself. (1) Rarely the middle has the force which a verb followed by a reflexive pronoun in the objective case has in English. Thus λούω means 1 wash, and λούομαι means 1 wash myself. 58 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK But usually the force of the middle is much more subtle. Sometimes, therefore, it is impossible to make any differ- ence in an English translation between active and middle. In the case of some verbs, on the other hand, the differ- ence in meaning is so great that in an English translation it is necessary to use one verb for the active and an entirely different verb for the middle. For example, ἄρχω means 7 rule, and ἄρχομαι (middle) means I begin. (2) The middle of λύω does not occur in the New Testament. But it is very important to learn it, since it will enable the student to recognize the middle of other verbs. The translations given in the paradigms for the middle of λύω serve to indicate, in a rough sort of way, the fundamental meaning of the middle voice, rather than the actual meaning of the middle voice of this particular verb. (3) In the present tense the middle and passive voices are exactly alike in form, though in certain other tenses they are entirely distinct. In the exercises in this lesson, the forms which might be either middle or ‘passive should be regarded as passive. 110. The Present Middle Indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. λύομαι, TL loose (or 1. λυόμεθα, we loose (or am loosing) are loosing) for myself. for ourselves. 2. λύῃ, thou loosest 2. λύεσθε, ye loose (or »(or art loosing) are loosing) for thyself. for yourselves. 3. λύεται, helooses (oris 8. λύονται, they loose (or loosing) for are loosing) himself. for themselves. “ ἂν Ser NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 59 111. The personal endings in the middle and passive of the so-called primary tenses are -μαι, -σαι, -Tat, -μεθα, -σθε, -vrat. Between the stem and the personal endings is placed, in the present tense, the variable vowel o /e (o stand- ing before μ and ν, ε before other letters). The second per- son singular, λύῃ, is a shortened form instead of λύεσαι. 112. The Present Passive Indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. λύομαι, TL am being 1. λυόμεθα, we are being loosed. loosed. 2. Avy, thou art 2. λύεσθε, ye are being being loosed. loosed. 3. λύεται, hers beiny 3. λύονται, they are being loosed. loosed. 113. The present active indicative, Avw, it will be re- membered, can be translated either I loose or I am loosing. The passive of I loose, in English, is I am loosed; the passive of I am loosing is I am being loosed. Both I am loosed and I am being loosed might, therefore, have been given in the translation of λύομαι (passive). But I am loosed is so ambiguous that the student is advised, at least in the earlier lessons, to adopt the alternative translation. J am loosed may mean I am now in a loosed condition, in which case it indicates a present state resultant upon a past action and would be translated, not by the present tense, but by the perfect tense in Greek. Example: σώζομαι means I am being saved. It repre- sents the action as taking place at the present time. It could also be translated J am saved in such a sentence as every day I am saved from some new trouble. Here I am 1An alternative form for λύῃ is λύει. But the former seems to be preferred in the New Testament. 00 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK saved is present because it indicates customary action. But in the majority of cases 1 am saved means I am in a saved condition resultant upon an action that took place in the past. And in these cases the English sentence I am saved would be translated by the perfect tense, not by the present tense in Greek. It will be seen, therefore, that the translation I am loosed for λύομαι, though it is not wrong (since λύομαι may sometimes be translated in this way), would be misleading. 114. ὑπό with the Genitive The preposition ὑπό with the genitive expresses the agent by which an action is performed. This usage occurs principally with the passive voice. Example: ὁ ἀπόστολος λύει τὸν δοῦλον means the apos- tle looses the servant. If the same thought be expressed by the passive voice, the object of the active verb becomes the subject of the passive and the subject of the active verb becomes ὑπό with the genitive. Thus ὁ δοῦλος λύεται ὑπὸ τοῦ ἀποστόλου means the servant is being loosed by the apostle. 115. The Dative of Means The simple dative without any preposition sometimes expresses means or znstrument. Examples: (1) ἐγείρονται τῷ λόγῳ τοῦ κυρίου, they are being raised up by (by means of) the word of the Lord. Compare ἐγείρονται ὑπὸ τοῦ κυρίου, they are being raised up by the Lord. ‘The comparison will serve to distinguish ὑπό with the genitive (expressing the active personal agent) from 16 dative expressing means. (2) ἄγομεν τοὺς δούλους μετὰ τῶν υἱῶν αὐτῶν λόγοις κα- ; / ‘ 2 a ᾿ a te ἢ § i ? Ῥ. q ie oy 2 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 61 dots, we are leading the servants with their sons with good words. This example will serve to distinguish the dative expressing means from μετά with the genitive expressing accompaniment. The two ideas, though they are logi- cally quite distinct, happen often to be expressed by the same preposition, with, in English. μετά with the genitive means with in the sense of in company with; the dative means with in the sense of by means of. 116. Deponent Verbs Many verbs have no active forms, but only middle or passive forms with active meaning. These verbs are called deponent. Example: πορεύομαι is passive in form, like λύομαι, but it is active in meaning, like λύω. It means simply 1 go or Iam going. 117. Compound Verbs Prepositions are frequently prefixed to verbs. ‘The mean- ing of the verb is modified by the preposition in a way that is often easily understood from the common meaning of the preposition. Sometimes, however, the matter is not so simple; sometimes the meaning of the compound verb cannot easily be determined from the separate meanings of its two component parts. Example: ἐκ means out of, and πορεύομαι means I go. Hence ἐκπορεύομαι means I go out. But the meaning of ἀποκρίνομαι, I answer, is not easily derived from the mean- ings of its component parts. 118. The Position of ov The negative, ov, precedes the word which it nega- tives. And since in the great majority of cases the nega- 62 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK tive in a sentence negatives the verb, the normal place of ov is immediately before the verb. Examples: οὐ λύω, 1 do not loose, or I am not loosing; ov λύομαι, I am not being loosed. 119. Various Cases With Verbs Many verbs take the genitive case and many the dative case to complete their meaning, where the corresponding verbs in English take a direct object. Examples: ἀκούω τῆς φωνῆς, 1 hear the voice (but ἀκούω may also take the accusative); ἀποκρίνομαι τῷ ἀποστόλῳ, I answer the apostle. 120.

In present time there is no special form of the verb in Greek to indicate continued action—there is no distinc- tion in Greek between J loose and I am loosing. But in | past time the distinction is made even more sharply than | in English. The tense which in the indicative is used as the simple past tense is called the aorist. It will be studied in Les- son XIV. The tense which denotes continued action in past time is called the imperfect. The aorist active indicative of λύω means I loosed, etc., whereas the imperfect active indicative means I was loos- | ing,etc. This distinction should be carefully observed. 123. The imperfect active indicative of λύω is as fol- | lows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἔλυον, TL was loosing. 1. ἔλύομεν, we were loosing. 2. ἔλυες, thou wast loosing. 2. ἐλύετε, ye were loosing. ὃ. ἔλυε(ν), he was loosing. 3. ἔλυον, they were loosing. 124. The imperfect indicative, like the indicative of the other secondary tenses (see §20, footnote), places an aug- ment at the beginning of the stem of the verb. : 125. In verbs that begin with a consonant the augment consists in an é- prefixed to the stem. Examples: ἔλυον, I was loosing; ἐγίνωσκον, I was knowing. 126. In verbs that begin with a vowel, the augment consists in the lengthening of that vowel. But a lengthens not to long a but to 7. Examples: The imperfect of ἐγείρω is ἤγειρον ; of ἀκούω, ἤκουον ; of αἴρω, ἦὖρον. 66 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 127. The personal endings in the active of the second- ary tenses are as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. -ν 1. -μεν 2. -ς 2. -τε 3. none: 3. -v (or -cav) 128. The variable vowel (placed between the stem and the personal endings) is, in the imperfect as in the present, o before μ and v and ε before other letters. 129. The third person singular, é\ve(v), has the mova- ble ν (under the conditions mentioned in §44). 130. It will be observed that the first person singular and the third person plural are alike in form. Only the context can determine whether é\voy means I was loosing or they were loosing. Augment of Compound Verbs 131. In compound verbs (see §117), the augment comes after the preposition and before the stem. If the preposition ends with a vowel, that vowel is usually dropped both be- fore a verb that begins with a vowel and before the aug- ment. Examples: The imperfect of ἐκβάλλω is ἐξέβαλλον ; of ἀποκτείνω, ἀπέκτεινον ; Of ἀπάγω, ἀπῆγον. 132. It should be observed that the accent does not go back of the augment. Thus ἀπῆγον is correct, not ἄπηγον. 133. Imperfect Indicative of εἰμί The imperfect indicative of εἰμί is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἤμην, I was. 1. ἦμεν, we were. 2. ns, thou wast. 2. ἦτε, ye were. 3. ἦν, he was. 3. ἦσαν, they were. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 67 134. Accent of ἔστι(ν). After οὐκ and certain other words the third person 515 gular present indicative of εἰμί is accented on the first syllable. This does not apply to the other forms of εἰμί. Thus οὐκ ἔστιν, but οὔκ ἐσμεν, etc. 135.

As in the present tense, so also in the imperfect, the middle and passive voices are alike in form. 138. The imperfect middle indicative of λύω is as fol- lows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἐλυόμην, I was loosing 1. ἔἐλυόμεθα, we were loosing for myself. for ourselves. 2. éd\vov, thou wast loosing 2. ἔλύεσθε, ye were loosing for thyself. for yourselves. 3. ἐλύετο, he was loosing 3. ἔλύοντο, they were loosing for himself. | for themselves. 70 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 139. The personal endings in the middle of the secondary tenses are as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. -μην 1. -μεθα 2. -σο 2. -σθε 8. -To 3. -ντὸ 140. The variable vowel, as in the active of the imper- fect, and in all three voices of the present, is o before pu and v and e before other letters. 141. In the second person singular, ἐλύου is a short- ened form for an original ἐλύεσο. 142. Great care should be taken to pronounce clearly both the long vowel in the ultima of the form ἐλυόμην and the accent on the penult. 143. The imperfect passive indicative of λύω Is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἐλυόμην, I was being 1. ἐλυόμεθα, we were being loosed. loosed. 2. ἐλύου, thou wast being 2. ἔλύεσθε, ye were being loosed. loosed. 3. ἐλύετο, he was being 3. ἐλύοντο, they were being loosed. loosed. 144. Verbs which are deponent in the present are also deponent in the imperfect. Example: The imperfect indicative of ἔρχομαι, I come, is ἠρχόμην, I was coming. 145. The Neuter Plural Subject A neuter plural subject may have its verb in the singular. Examples: τὰ δαιμόνια ἐξέρχεται, the demons go out; ταῦτά ἐστι τὰ καλὰ δῶρα, these are the good gifts. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 71 This strange idiom, however, is by no means invariable in New Testament Greek; the neuter plural subject often has its verb in the plural like any other plural verb. Example: τὰ τέκνα σώζονται, the children are being saved. Uses of καί and οὐδέ 146. The simple connective use of καί, where it means and, has already been studied. But καί has other uses. Frequently it means also or even. When it is thus used, it stands before the word with which it is logically connected. In the case of also, the English order is the reverse of the Greek order; in the case of even, it is the same as the Greek order. Examples: τοῦτο δὲ καὶ éyw λέγω, but this I also say; γινώσκουσι καὶ Ta τέκνα τὸν νόμον, even the children know the law. 147. οὐδέ, like καί, 15 often simply connective and means and not or nor. But like καί it has other uses. It often means not even. Examples: τοῦτο δὲ ov λέγω ἐγὼ οὐδὲ λέγουσιν αὐτὸ ot ἄλλοι, but this I do not say, nor do the others say it (simple connective use of οὐδέ); τὴν δόξαν τοῦ θεοῦ βλέπουσιν οὐδὲ οἱ μαθηταί, not even the disciples see the glory of God. 148. Finally, καί. . . καί and οὐδέ. . . οὐδέ are used cor- relatively, and mean, respectively, both . . . and, and ne- ther... nor. Examples: (1) τοῦτο λέγουσιν καὶ ot ἀπόστολοι καὶ ot δοῦλοι, both the apostles and the servants say this; (2) τοῦτο λέγουσιν οὐδὲ οἱ ἀπόστολοι οὐδὲ οἱ δοῦλοι, neither the apos- tles nor the servants say this. 72 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 149.

The present and imperfect tenses, in all three voices, are formed on the present stem, to which the personal end- ings, being joined to the stem by the variable vowel οἱ ε, are added. But the future active and middle are formed on the future stem, which is formed by adding the tense suffix o to the stem of the verb. Thus, while Av- is the stem of the verb (which in the case of λύω is also the present stem), \vo- is the future stem. 152. The future, being a primary tense, has primary personal endings like the present tense. The variable vowel is also the same. Therefore the future active and NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 75 middle indicative are conjugated exactly like the present active and middle, except that the future has λυσ- at the beginning instead of λυ-. 153. It will be remembered that in the present and im- perfect tenses the middle and passive are alike in form. But in the future the passive is quite different from the middle and will be reserved for a subsequent lesson. λύσο- μαι, therefore, means I shall loose for myself, but it does not mean I shall be loosed. 154. The future active indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. λύσω, TI shall loose. 1. λύσομεν, we shall loose. 2. λύσεις, thou wilt loose. 2. λύσετε, ye will loose. 3. λύσει, he will loose. 3. λύσουσι(ν), they will loose. 155. The future middle indicative of λύω is as follows: ° Sing. Plur. 1. λύσομαι, I shall loose 1. λυσόμεθα, we shall loose for myself. for ourselves. 2. λύσῃ, thou wilt loose 2. λύσεσθε, ye will loose for thyself. for yourselves. 3. λύσεται, he will loose 3. λύσονται, they will loose for himself. for themselves. 156. Future Active and Middle of Stems Ending in a Consonant When the stem of a verb ends in a consonant, the addi- tion of the tense suffix o brings two consonants together. The following results then occur: (1) 7, B, φ (called labcal mutes because they are pro- 76 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK nounced by means of the lips) form with the following σ the double consonant yw (ps). Examples: The future of πέμπω 15 πέμψω, and of γράφω, γράψω. (2) κ, Ύ, χ (called palatal mutes because they are pro- nounced by means of the palate) form with the following σ the double consonant & (ks). Examples: The future of ἄγω is ἄξω, and of ἄρχω, ἄρξω. (3) τ, δ, 6 (called lingual mutes because they are formed by means of the tongue) drop out before the σ. Example: The future of πείθω is πείσω. Formation of the Future Stem and Other Tense Stems of Various Verbs 157. In the case of many verbs the verb stem is different from the present stem. Examples: (1) The verb stem of κηρύσσω is not κηρυσσ- but κηρυκ-. From κηρυκ- the future κηρύξω is formed by the rule given in §156. (2) The verb stem of βαπτίζω is not βαπτιζ- but βαπτιδ-. From βαπτιδ- the future βαπτίσω is formed by the rule given in §156. 158. In general, the future of a Greek verb cannot cer- tainly be formed by any rules; it must be looked up in the lexicon for every individual verb, so numerous are the irregularities. 159. The Greek verb is for the most part exceedingly regular in deriving the individual forms indicating voice, mood, person and number from the basal tense stems. But the formation of those basal tense stems from the stem of the verb (and still more from the present stem) is often exceedingly irregular. The basal tense stems, from which all the rest of the verb is formed, are six in number. These . Six, given with the personal ending for the first person singu- NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 77 lar indicative, are called the principal parts. So far, only two of the six principal parts of λύω have been learned. From the first of the principal parts, λύω, all of the present and imperfect in all three voices is formed; from the sec- ond, Avow, all of the future active and middle. The present and imperfect together form the present system ; the future active and middle form the future system. 160. The regularity of the Greek verb in making the individual forms within each tense system from the first form of the tense system, and the great irregularity in mak- ing the first forms themselves, may be illustrated by the very irregular verb ἔρχομαι. The student would certainly never have expected that the future of ἔρχομαι would be ἐλεύσομαι; but once he has learned from the lexicon that ἐλεύσομαι is the first person singular of the future, the third plural, ἐλεύσονται, for example, can be derived from it exactly as λύσονται is derived from λύσομαι, which in turn is derived from λύσω. 161. From this point on, it will be assumed that the student will use the general vocabularies at the back of the book. The method of using them may be illustrated as follows: (1) Suppose it is desired to translate they will begin into Greek. The first step is to look up the word begin in the English-Greek vocabulary. It is there said that begin is expressed by the middle voice of a@pxw. The next step is to look up the word ἄρχω in the Greek- English vocabulary. With it, in the Greek-English vo- cabulary, the principal parts are given. The second of the principal parts is the future ἄρξω. It is the fu- ture which is desired, because they will begin is future. But it is the middle voice of ἄρχω which means begin. Therefore we are looking for the future middle indicative 78 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK (third person plural). That can be derived from ἄρξω after the analogy of λύω. If the paradigm of \vw be con- sulted, it will be discovered that the future middle indica- tive, third person plural, is formed from the second of the principal parts by retaining the λυσ- of λύσω and putting on -ovrat instead of -w. Treating ἄρξω in the same way, we keep ἀρξ- and add-ovrat to it. Thus ἄρξονται is the form desired. (2) If the form σώσει is found in the Greek-English exercises, the student will naturally guess that the second o is the sign of the future just as the σ is in λύσει. He will therefore look up verbs beginning with ow-. With- out difficulty cwfw will be found, and its future (the sec- ond of the principal parts) is discovered to be σώσω, of which, of course, σώσει is simply the third person singular. (3) Similarly, if the student sees a form ἄξω he should at once surmise that the o concealed in the double consonant ξ isthe o of the future. The present, therefore, will natur- ally be &kw or ἄγω or ἄχω. It may be necessary to try all three of these in the vocabulary until it be discovered that ἄγω is correct. Of course these processes will soon become second nature and will be performed without thought of the individual steps. 162. The more difficult forms will be listed separately in the vocabularies, with references to the verbs from which . they come. 163. But the forms of compound verbs will not be thus listed. For example, if the student sees ἀπελεύσεσθε in the exercises, he should observe that d7- is evidently the preposition ἀπό with its final vowel elided. ‘The simple verb form, then, with the preposition removed, is ἐλεύσεσθε. The first person singular would be ἐλεύσομαι. This form NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 79 will be found in the Greek-English vocabulary and will be designated as the future of ἔρχομαι. Therefore, since ἐλεύ- σεσθε comes from ἔρχομαι, ἀπελεύσεσθε will come from ἀπέρχομαι, and that is the verb which the student must finally look up. 164. Deponent Future of Certain Verbs Some verbs are deponent in one tense but not in another. Examples: βαίνω has a future of the middle form, βήσομαι. It is thus deponent in the future but not in the present. 165.

The first aorist is not a different tense from the second aorist, which will be studied in the next lesson, but first aorist and second aorist are merely two different ways of forming the same tense of a verb. Thus the English I loved is not a different tense from I threw, but the verb love and the verb throw form the ‘“‘preterit’’? (simple past tense) in two different ways. 168. The aorist is like the imperfect in that it refers to past time. But the imperfect refers to continuous action in past time, while the aorist is the simple past tense. Thus the imperfect ἔλυον means I was loosing, while the aorist ἔλυσα means I loosed. It will be remembered that in present time this distinction between the simple assertion of the act and the assertion of continued (or repeated) action is not made in Greek (λύω, therefore, means either I loose or I am loosing). But in past time the distinction 82 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK is very carefully made; the Greek language shows no ten- dency whatever to confuse the aorist with the imperfect. 169. It should be observed, however, that the aorist tense is often translated by the English perfect. ἔλυσα, therefore, may mean I have loosed as well as I loosed. The Greek perfect, which will be studied in Lesson XXIX, though it is indeed often to be translated by I have loosed, has a very different range from that of this English tense. Where the English I have loosed merely asserts that the ac- tion has taken place in past time without any implications as to its present results, it is translated by the Greek aorist. Examples: ἠκούσατε τὴν φωνήν μου, ye have heard my voice. This sentence merely asserts that the action has taken place at some unspecified time in the past. But if a then were added, and thus the interval between the past action and the present time when the assertion is being made were clearly marked, the English would have the simple preterit. Thus τότε ἠκούσατε τὴν φωνήν μου would be translated then ye heard my voice. 170. The context will usually determine quite clearly whether a Greek aorist is to be translated in English by the simple past tense (e.g. I loosed) or by the perfect tense (e.g. I have loosed). The former translation should be adopted in the exercises unless it is perfectly certain that the other is intended. What the student needs to under- stand first is that the aorist is the simple past tense. 171. The first aorist active indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἔλυσα, =‘ loosed. 1. ἐλύσαμεν, we loosed. 2. ἔλυσας, thou loosedst. 2. ἔλύσατε, ye loosed. 3. ἔλυσε(ν), he loosed. 3. ἔλυσαν, they loosed. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 83 172. The aorist, being a secondary tense (like the im- perfect), has the augment. The augment is the same for the aorist as it is for the imperfect (see §§124-126). 173. The aorist, like the imperfect, has the secondary endings. It will be remembered (see §127) that these, in the active voice, are as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. -ν 1. -μεν 2. -ς 2, -τε 3. none 3. -ν (or -σαν). 174. It should be observed that in the first aorist the v is dropped in the first person singular. 175. Before these personal endings, there stands, in the aorist, not a variable vowel, but the tense suffix, ca, which is added to the stem of the verb. Thus, where the future has go /e, the first aorist has σα. 176. In the third person singular this ca is changed to σε. &dvoe(v) may have the movable », like the é\ve(v) of the imperfect. 177. The form ἐλύσαμεν---ἰο take it as an example —may be divided as follows: é/Ai/ca/uev. ἐ is the aug- ment, dv is the stem of the verb, σα is the sign of the first aorist, and μὲν is the secondary personal ending in the first person plural active. 178. The first aorist middle indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἐλυσάμην, I loosed 1. ἐλυσάμεθα, we loosed for myself. for ourselves. 2. ἔλύσω, thou loosedst 2. ἐλύσασθε, ye loosed for for thyself. yourselves. 3. ἐλύσατο, he loosed 3. ἐλύσαντο, they loosed for for himself. themselves. 84 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 179. As in the future tense so in the aorist tense, the passive voice is entirely distinct in form from the middle. ἐλυσάμην, therefore, means I loosed for myself, but it does not mean I was loosed. 180. Like the aorist active, the aorist middle has the sec- ondary personal endings. It will be remembered (see §139) that in the middle these secondary personal endings are as follows: Sing.

No changes occur except in the second person singular, where ἐλύσω is a shortened form for an original ἐλύσασο. 182. The form ἐλυσάμεθα ---- ἰο take it as an example —is made up as follows: €/Av/od/pyeOa. ἐ is the aug- ment, Av is the stem of the verb, oa is the tense suffix, μεθα is the secondary personal ending in the first person plural middle. 183. The changes caused by the joining of the oa of the first aorist tense suffix to the stems of various verbs are like those caused by the oo /e of the future. As in the case of the future, however, it cannot be predicted with certainty what the aorist of a Greek verb will be. Every verb must be looked up in the lexicon separately. For this purpose the student should use the general vocabulary at the end of the book in the manner described in §§161-168. Only, for the aorist active and middle, we shall be interested in the third of the principal parts, not in the second. i aA AE ΣΤΥ a Se Sale a By i el lle lk tial Oh rae ὙΠῸ ΤΣ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 85 184. Constructions with πιστεύω The verb πιστεύω takes the dative. Thus πιστεύω Ὁ ἀνθρώπῳ means I believe the man. The verb πιστεύω followed by eis with the accusative is to be translated by I believe in or on. Thus πιστεύω εἰς τὸν κύριον means I believe in the Lord or I believe on the Lord. It must not be supposed, however, that the preposition eis with the accusative here really means in hike ἐν with the dative. Rather is it to be said that the Greek language merely looks at the act of believing in a different way from the English; Greek thinks of putting one’s faith nto some one.. 185.

See J. H. Moulton, A Grammar of New Testament Greek, Vol. II, 1920, “‘Accidence and Word Formation’’, edited by W. F. Howard, pp. 208f., note 1. It is therefore rather a concession to weakness when εἶδον etc. are here treated as second aorists throughout. But this procedure will probably be better until the nature of the second aorist becomes thoroughly familiar to the student. The first aorist endings can after- wards easily be recognized when they occur. Compare $521. 88 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 187. It has already been observed that the second aorist is not a different tense from the first aorist, but only a dif- ferent way of forming the same tense. Very few verbs, therefore, have both a first aorist and a second aorist, just as very few verbs in English form their preterit both by adding -ed and by making changes within the body of the word. Thus the preterit of live is lived, and the preterit of rise is rose, but live has no preterit love, nor has rise a preterit rised. The uses of the tense lzved are exactly the same as the uses of the tense rose. So also in Greek the uses of the second aorist are exactly the same as the uses of the first aorist. 188. It cannot be determined beforehand whether a verb is going to have a first aorist or a second aorist, nor if it has a second aorist what the form of that second aorist will be. These matters can be settled only by an examina- tion of the lexicon for each individual verb. 189. The second aorist system (consisting of all moods of the second aorist active and middle) differs from the present system (consisting of all moods of the present and imperfect active, middle and passive), not by adding -σα or any other tense suffix to the stem of the verb, but by differences, as over against the present, within the body of the word. Usually these differences mean that the second aorist has gotten back nearer to the real, fundamental verb stem than the present has. Examples: (1) λαμβάνω has a second aorist ἔλαβον, λαβ- being the second aorist stem and λαμβαν- the present stem. (2) βάλλω has a second aorist ἔβαλον, Bad- being the sec- ond aorist stem and βαλλ- the present stem. 190. Upon the second aorist stem are formed the second aorist active and middle. The aorist passive of all verbs Se ΤΡ a Le Pe ΡΘΗ ΡΥ ΡΥ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 89 is different from the aorist middle, whether the aorist middle is first aorist or second aorist. ἐλιπόμην, therefore, the aorist middle of λείπω, does not mean J was left. In order to translate I was left, an entirely different form, the aorist passive, would be used. 191. The second aorist, being a secondary tense, has an augment, which is just like the augment of the imperfect. Thus a second aorist stem like λιπ- (of λείπω), which be- gins with a consonant, prefixes € to make the augment (the stem λιπ- thus making ἔλιπον), while a second aorist stem like ἐλθ-, which begins with a vowel, lengthens that vowel (the stem ἐἔλθ- thus making ἦλθον). 192. The second aorist, being a secondary tense, has secondary personal endings. Between these and the stem comes the variable vowel o /e exactly as in the present and imperfect. The second aorist indicative, therefore, is con- jugated exactly like the imperfect, except that the imperfect is formed on the present stem, while the second aorist indicative is formed on the second aorist stem. Thus ἐλείπομεν means we were leaving (imperfect), whereas ἔλίπομεν means we left (second aorist). Sometimes a single letter serves to distinguish imperfect from second aorist. ἐβάλλομεν, for example, means we were throw- ing (imperfect), whereas ἐβάλομεν means we threw (sec- ond aorist). 193. The second aorist active indicative of λείπω, I leave, is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἔλιπον, I left. 1. ἐλίπομεν, we left. 2. ἔλιπες, thou leftst. 2. ἐλίπετε, ye left. 3. €dure(v), he left. 3. ἔλιπον, they left. 90 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 194.

The aorist passive indicative and the future passive indicative are formed on the aorist passive stem, which appears in the sixth place among the principal parts. The fourth and fifth of the principal parts will be studied in a subsequent lesson. 198. The aorist passive stem is formed by adding θε to the verb stem. This θεὲ is lengthened throughout the indicative to θη. Thus the aorist passive stem of λύω ap- pears as λυθη-. 199. The aorist being a secondary tense, the augment, formed exactly as in the case of the imperfect (see §$124- 126), is prefixed to the tense stem, and the secondary per- “ἍΜ... a ΥΕῚ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 93 sonal endings are added. These personal endings are of the active form (see §127), and are like those which are used in the imperfect active indicative except that in the third person plural the alternative ending -cav is chosen instead of -v. In the aorist passive indicative, the personal end- ings are added directly to the tense stem, without any vari- able vowel intervening. 200. The future passive indicative is formed by adding -co/e to the aorist passive stem (with its θεὲ lengthened to θη), which, however, since the future is a primary not a secondary tense, has in the future no augment. ‘To this future passive stem, λυθησο [ε, the middle primary end- ings are added, and the future passive is conjugated exactly like the future middle except that the stem is λυθησο[ε instead of λυσο /e. 201. The aorist passive indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἐλύθην, I was loosed. 1. ἐλύθημεν, we were loosed. 2. ἐλύθης, thou wast loosed. 2. ἐλύθητε, ye were loosed. 3. ἐλύθη, he was loosed. 3. ἐλύθησαν, they were loosed. 202.. The future passive indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. λυθήσομαι, I shall be 1. λυθησόμεθα, we shall be loosed. loosed. 2. λυθήσῃ, thou wilt be 2. λυθήσεσθε, ye will be loosed. loosed. 3. λυθήσεται, he will be 3. λυθήσονται, they will be loosed. loosed. 94 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 203. The uses of the parts of the verb which have been studied so far may be summarized as follows: 1 loose. Active. dw = or fete I am loosing. etek I loose for myself. Middle. λύομαι = or I am loosing for myself. Passive. λύομαι = I am being loosed. Teneo Active. ἔλυον = TI was loosing. Pete Middle. é\vouny = I was loosing for myself. Indicative : Ie ses ι Passive. ἐλυόμην = I was being loosed. Fut Active. λύσω = 7 shall loose. i joa Middle. Avcouat = TI shall loose for myself. Passive. λυθήσομαι = I shall be loosed.

Formation of Aorist Passive Stems of Verbs Whose Verb Stems End in a Consonant 204. Before the θ of the aorist passive tense-suffix, a final + or 6 of the verb stem is changed to ¢, a final x or y is changed to x, and a final τ, 6, or 6 is changed to a. The changes in the case of 7, 8, k, y can be re- membered if it be observed that θ is equivalent to th and that what the changes amount to is adding on an A to the preceding letters so as to make them conform to the th. Thus before th, p or ὃ becomes ph, and k or g becomes ch. — Examples: The aorist passive of πέμπω is ἐπέμφθην, of ἄγω, ἤχθην, of πείθω, ἐπείσθην. 205. Like the other principal parts, however, the aorist ee ΜΉ ee Ὑ ΨῸῸ Το tae > pels a ἡ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 95 passive of a Greek verb cannot be formed with any cer- tainty on the basis of general rules, but must be noted for each verb separately. 206. Second Aorist Passive Some verbs have a second aorist passive instead of a first aorist passive. This second aorist passive is conjugated in the indicative exactly like a first aorist passive. But it has no @ in the tense stem. Example: The second aorist passive indicative of γράφω Is ἐγράφην, ἔγράφης, éypadn, ἔγράφημεν, ἔγράφητε, ἐγρά- φησαν. Aorist and Future of Deponent Verbs 207. Some deponent verbs have passive, not middle, forms. Example: The aorist of ἀποκρίνομαι, I answer, is ἀπε- κρίθην, 1 answered.! 208. Some deponent verbs have both middle and passive forms. Example: The aorist of γίνομαι, I become, is either ἐγενόμην, I became, or ἔγενήθην, I became. ἐγενόμην and ἐγενήθην mean exactly the same thing, both the middle and the passive forms having active meaning. 200 Exercises I. 1. ἐπιστεύσαμεν εἰς τὸν κύριον καὶ ἔγνώσθημεν ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ. 2. ταῦτα éypady ἐν τοῖς βιβλίοις. 3. ἐδιδάξατε τὰ τέκνα, ἐδιδάχθητε δὲ καὶ αὐτοὶ ὑπὸ τοῦ κυρίου. 4. ἐλήμφθη- σαν οἱ πιστοὶ εἰς τὸν οὐρανόν, ἐξεβλήθησαν δὲ ἐξ αὐτοῦ οἱ ἄγγελοι οἱ πονηροί. ὃ. ἔγερθήσονται οἱ νεκροὶ τῷ λόγῳ τοῦ κυρίου. 6. οὗτοι οἱ τυφλοὶ συνήχθησαν εἰς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν. 7. ἐξεβλήθη τὰ δαιμόνια: ὃ γὰρ κύριος ἐξέβαλεν αὐτά. ὃ. πέμπονται μὲν καὶ νῦν οἱ μαθηταί, ἐπέμφθησαν δὲ τότε οἱ ἀπό- τύ occasionally ἀποκρίνομα thas middle forms. 96 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK στολοι Kal πεμφθήσονται ἐν ἐκείνῃ TH ἡμέρᾳ Kal οἱ ἄγγελοι. 9. εἰσῆλθες εἰς τὴν ἐκκλησίαν καὶ ἐβαπτίσθης. 10. ἐπιστεύθη ἐν κόσμῳ, ἀνελήμφθη ἐν δόξῃ. 11. οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ ἐσώθησαν ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ καὶ ἔγενήθησαν μαθηταὶ τοῦ κυρίου. 12. ἐπορεύθημεν εἰς ἕτερον τόπον" οὐ γὰρ δέξονται ἡμᾶς οὗτοι. 13. ἐδοξάσθη ὁ θεὸς ὑπὸ τοῦ υἱοῦ, ἐδόξασε δὲ αὐτόν. -14. τὸ εὐαγγέλιον ἐκηρύχθη ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ἐκείναις, κηρυχθήσεται δὲ καὶ νῦν. 15. ἑτοιμασθήσεται ἡμῖν τόπος ἐν οὐρανῷ κατὰ τὴν ἐπαγγελίαν τοῦ κυρίου. 10. τὰ τέκνα προσηνέχθησαν τῷ κυρίῳ. 17. εἶδον οὗτοι τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ κυρίου καὶ ἤκουσαν τῆς φωνῆς αὐτοῦ. 18. ἐν τῷ μικρῷ οἴκῳ ἀκουσθήσεται ἡ φωνὴ τοῦ ἀποστόλου. 19. πρῶτός εἰμι τῶν ἁμαρτωλῶν, ἐσώθην δὲ καὶ €yw. 20. ὀψόμεθα μὲν τοὺς ἀγγέλους, ὀφθησόμεθα δὲ καὶ ὑπ᾽ αὐτῶν.

These case endings are added to the stem, and the stem can be discovered, not from the nominative, as is possible in the first and second declensions, but only by dropping off the -os of the genitive singular. Thus the genitive singular must be known before any third declen- sion noun can be declined. 214. It will be observed that both in the accusative singular ending and in the accusative plural ending the ais short. The dative plural -σι(ν) may have the mova- ble v. (See §44.) 215. The nominative is formed in various ways, which it will probably be most convenient not to try to classify. 216. The vocative also is formed differently in different nouns. It is very often like the nominative. 217. Inthe dative plural the combination of consonants formed by the -σι of the case ending coming after the final consonant of the stem causes various changes, which are in general the same as those set forth in §156. But where two consonants, as vr, are dropped before the following σ, the preceding vowel is lengthened, o, however, being length- ened not to w but to ov. So in ἄρχουσι(ν), the dative plural of ἄρχων. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 99 218. The gender of third declension nouns, except in the case of certain special classes like the nouns in -ya, -ματος, cannot easily be reduced to rules, and so must be learned for each noun separately. 219. Thus if the student is asked what the word for flesh is, it is quite insufficient for him to say that it is σάρξ. What he must rather say is that it is σάρξ, σαρκός, fem- inine. Without the genitive singular, it would be im- possible to determine the stem; and unless the stem is known, of course the noun cannot be declined. And with- out knowing the gender, one could not use the word cor- rectly. One could not tell, for example, whether ὁ σάρξ or ἡ σάρξ or τὸ σάρξ would be correct. 220. These two difficulties, coupled with the difficulty of the dative plural, make the third declension more diffi- cult than the first and second. Otherwise the declension is easy, when once the case endings have been thoroughly mastered and have been distinguished clearly from those of the other two declensions. 221. Monosyllables of the Third Declension Monosyllabic nouns of the third declension have the ac- cent on the ultima in the genitive and dative of both num- bers. In the genitive plural it is the circumflex. Example: σάρξ, σαρκός, σαρκῶν. This rule is an exception to the rule of noun accent. In accordance with the rule of noun accent, the accent would remain on the same syllable as in the nominative singular so nearly as the general rules of accent would permit. : 100 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 222.

Use of Participles 925: _ Vocabulary προσέρχομαι, dep., 1 come to, ὧν, οὖσα, bv, being, present I go to, with dative. participle of εἰμί (for de- clension, see §580). 226. The declension of λύων, λύουσα, λῦον, loosing, the present active participle of Avw, is as follows: Sing. M. F. N. N.V. λύων λύουσα λῦον G. λίύοντος λυούσης λύοντος 10. λίύοντι λυούσῃ λύοντι A. λύοντα λύουσαν λῦον Plur. M. Ἐ. Ν. N.V. Avovres λύουσαι λύοντα G. λυόντων λυουσῶν λυόντων D. λύουσι(ν) λυούσαις λύουσι(ν) A. λύοντας λυούσας λύοντα 227. This declension, like the declension of other adjec- tives, should be learned across, and not down the columns. See §61. 228. It will be observed that the masculine and neuter are declined according to the third declension (the masculine exactly like ἄρχων) and the feminine according to the first declension (like δόξα). The accent in the genitive eee el ee oe ee a ΝΥΝ να eee ee ee NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 103 plural feminine follows the noun rule for the first declen- sion, not the adjective rule (see §§51, 62). 229. It will be remembered that in the accusative plural the a in the ending is short in the third declension but long in the first declension. 230. The declension of λυόμενος, ἡ, ov, loosing for himself, the present middle participle, and of λυόμενος, 7, ov, being loosed, the present passive participle of λύω, is as follows: Sing. M. F, N. N. V. λυόμενος λυομένη λυόμενον G. λλυομένου λυομένης λυομένου . λυομένῳ λυομένῃ λυομένῳ Α. λυόμενον λυομένην λυόμενον | Plur. M. F, N. N.V. λἀλυόμενοι λυόμεναι λυόμενα G. λυομένων λυομένων λυομένων 1). λυομένοις λυομέναις λυομένοις Α. λυομένους λυομένας λυόμενα αὖ will be observed that this declension is like that of adjectives of the second and first declension. 231. The present participles are formed on the present stem of the verb (see §151). The present participles of any regular verb can be made by adding -ων, -ovaa, -ov, and -όμενος, -ομένη, -όμενον to the present stem of that verb. 22. Use οὗ Participles The participles are verbal adjectives. Being adjectives, they have gender, number, and case; and like other adjec- tives they agree in gender, number, and case with the nouns 104 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK that they modify. On the other hand, since they partake of the nature of verbs, (a) they have tense and voice, (b) they receive, like other parts of a verb, adverbial modifiers, and (c) if they be participles of a transitive verb. they can take a direct object. Examples: (1)6 ἀπόστολος λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ βλέπει τὸν κύριον, the apostle, saying these things in the temple, sees the Lord. Here the participle λέγων, which means saying, agrees with ἀπόστολος, which is in the nomina- tive case and singular number and is a masculine noun. The participle, therefore, must be nominative singular masculine. On the other hand, the participle is enough of a verb to have tense and voice. It is in the present tense because the action which it denotes is represented as going on at the same time as the action of the leading verb βλέπει; it is in the active voice because it represents the apostle as doing something, not as hav- ing something done to him. And it has the adverbial modifier ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ and the direct object ταῦτα. On the other hand, it has no subject, as a finite verb (e.g. an indicative) would have; for the noun ἀπόστολος, which denotes the person represented as performing the action denoted by the participle, is not the subject of the participle, but the noun with which the participle, like any other adjective, agrees. (2) βλέπομεν τὸν ἀπόστολον λέγοντα ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, we see the apostle saying these things in the temple. Here the noun with which the participle agrees is accusative singular masculine. Therefore the participle must also be accusative singular masculine. But its direct object and its adverbial modifier are the same as in (1). (3) προσερχόμεθα τῷ ἀποστόλῳ λέγοντι ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, we come to the apostle while he 185 saying these things in the temple. Here the participle λέγοντι agrees with a NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 105 masculine noun in the dative singular and must there- fore itself be dative singular masculine. But in this ex- ample it is quite impossible to translate the participle literally. The translation, we come to the apostle saying these things in the temple, would not do at all, for in that English sentence the participle saying would be un- derstood as agreeing not with the apostle but with the sub- ject of the sentence, we. It is necessary, therefore, to give up all attempts at translating the participle “‘literally”. In- stead, we must express the idea which is expressed by the Greek participle in an entirely different way—by the use of a temporal clause. When such temporal clauses are used to translate a Greek present participle they are usually introduced by while. Such a free translation would have been better than the literal translation even in Example (1), although there the literal translation was not absolutely impossible. It would have been rather better to translate ὁ ἀπόστολος λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ βλέπει τὸν κύριον by while the apostle ts saying these things τη the temple, he sees the Lord. (4) διδασκομένῳ ὑπὸ τοῦ ἀποστόλου προσέρχονται αὐτῷ οἱ δοῦλοι, while he rs being taught by the apostle, the servants are coming to him. Here διδασκομένῳ agrees with αὐτῷ, which, like τῷ ἀποστόλῳ in the preceding example, is dative with the verb προσέρχομαι. διδασκομένῳ is the pres- ent passive participle of διδάσκω. 233. The Tense of the Participle The tense of the participle is relative to the time of the leading verb. The present participle, therefore, is used if the action denoted by the participle is represented as taking place at the same time as the action denoted by the leading verb, 106 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK no matter whether the action denoted by the leading verb is past, present or future. Examples: (1) διδασκομένῳ ὑπὸ τοῦ ἀποστόλου προσῆλθον αὐτῷ οἱ δοῦλοι, while he was being taught by the apostle, the servants came to him. Here the action denoted by the participle διδασκομένῳ, though it is past with reference to the time when the sentence is spoken or written, is pres- ent with reference to the time of the leading verb—that is, the teaching was going on at the same time as the coming of the servants. Hence the present participle is used. (2) πορευομένῳ ἐν TH ὁδῷ προσῆλθον αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ, while he was going in the way, his disciples came to him. It will be observed that the participles of the depo- nent verb πορεύομαι, like other parts of that verb, are ac- tive in meaning though passive in form. Otherwise this example is like (1). (3) πορευόμενος ἐν TH ὁδῷ εἶδεν τυφλόν, while he was going in the way, he saw a blind man. Here it will be observed that the participle frequently agrees with the unexpressed subject of a verb. Similarly λέγων ταῦτα εἶδεν τυφλόν, means while he was saying these things, he saw a blind man, and λέγοντες ταῦτα εἴδετε τυφλόν means while ye were saying these things, ye saw a blind man. 234. The Attributive Participle The participle, like any other adjective, can stand in the attributive position. Examples: (1) It will be remembered (see §70) that 6 ἀγαθὸς ἀπόστολος means the good apostle. In exactly the same way ὁ λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ ἀπόστολος means the saying -these-things-in-the-temple apostle. The participle (with its modifiers) is here an adjective in the attributive position; it takes the exact place of the attributive ad- NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 107 jective ἀγαθός in the phrase ὁ ἀγαθὸς ἀπόστολος. It is more usual, however, to place the attributive participle (with its modifiers) in the second of the two alternative positions in which the attributive adjective can stand. Thus the usual order would be ὁ ἀπόστολος ὁ λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ. Here the λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ takes the exact place of ἀγαθός in the phrase ὁ ἀπόστολος ὁ ἀγαθός, which is one of the two ways in which the good apostle can be expressed. Of course the “‘literal” translation, the saying-these-things- in-the-temple apostle, is not good English. The idiomatic English way of expressing the same idea is the apostle who as saying these things in the temple. The difference between this attributive use of the par- ticiple and the use which appears in Example (1) in §232 should be noticed very carefully. In the sentence 6 ἀπό- στολος λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ βλέπει τὸν κύριον, the parti- ciple λέγων, being in the predicate, not in the attributive, position, goes only somewhat loosely with ὁ ἀπόστολος (though it agrees with it), and really modifies also the verb $\érec—that is, it tells when the action denoted by βλέπει took place. But the addition of the one little word ὁ before λέγων makes an enormous difference in the mean- ing. When that word is added we have the sentence 6 ἀπόστολος ὁ λέγων ταῦτα ἐν TH ἱερῷ βλέπει τὸν κύριον, the apostle who says these things in the temple sees the Lord. Here λέγων stands in the attributive position, and does not in any way modify the verb βλέπει; but it tells what apostle is being spoken of. Suppose some one asks us what apostle we are talking about. We could reply, ‘‘Not the good apostle or the bad apostle, or the great apostle or the small apostle, but the saying-these-things-in-the-temple apostle.” It will be seen that the attributive participle identifies the particular apostle that we are talking about. 108 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK (2) Compare εἶδον τοὺς ἀποστόλους λέγοντας ταῦτα, I saw the apostles while they were saying these things or I saw the apostles saying these things, with εἶδον τοὺς ἀποστόλους τοὺς λέγοντας ταῦτα, I saw the apostles [ a were saying | who these things. In the latter case the (attributive) participle tells what apostles we are talking about. 235. Substantive Use of the Participle The participle, like any other adjective, can be used substantively with the article. It will be remembered that ὁ ἀγαθός means the good man; ἡ ἀγαθή, the good women; τὸ ἀγαθόν, the good thing; οἱ ἀγαθοί, the good men, etc. In exactly the same way ὁ λέγων ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ means the saying-these-things-in-the- temple man. The participle (with its modifiers), just like the adjective, tells what man we are talking about. But how shall the same idea be expressed in idiomatic English? There are various closely related ways—for example, the says man who is sayin ὴ these things τη the temple, or the one who says \ says he saying | these things in the temple, or he who ie js | these things in the temple. It should be observed, however, that none of these English phrases is a literal translation of the Greek. The Greek 6 does not mean the man or the one or he. It means the, and it is just as simple an article as the article in the phrase the cat or the dog or the house. But in English we do not use the article with the sub- stantive participle. Therefore we have to reproduce the idea of the Greek ὁ λέγων by a phrase of which the individ- ual parts have absolutely nothing to do with the individual parts of the Greek phrase. It is only the total meaning of the English phrase which is the same as the total mean- ing of the Greek phrase. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 109 The following examples should also be examined: (1) εἶδον τὸν λέγοντα ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ, I saw the one who was saying these things in the temple. Here the Greek uses the present participle because the time of the action de- noted by the participle is the same as that of the action denoted by the leading verb, even though the action de- noted by the leading verb here happens to be in past time. (2) εἶδον τοὺς λέγοντας ταῦτα, I saw those who were saying these things. (3) ὁ ἀδελφὸς τῆς λεγούσης ταῦτα δοῦλός ἐστιν, the brother of the woman who is saying these things 18 a servant. (4) ὁ πιστεύων eis τὸν ἐγείροντα τοὺς νεκροὺς σώζεται, he who believes on the One who raises the dead is being saved. (5) τὸ σῶζον τοὺς ἀνθρώπους τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν, the thing that saves (or that which saves) men is the will of God. (6) τὰ βλεπόμενα ov μένει εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, the things that are seen do not remain for ever. 236. The following summary may be found useful: Present Participles Act. λύων = loosing. Mid. λυόμενος = loosing for himself. Pass. λυόμενος = being loosed. Present Participles with Article the man who looses. = < the one who looses. he who looses. Act. ὁ λύων, the loosing man Mid. 6 λυόμενος, the man who looses for himself. the loosing-for- the one who looses for himself. himself man he who looses for himself. 110 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Pass. ὁ λυόμενος, ; the man who is being loosed. the being-loosed = < the one who ts being loosed. man l he who is being loosed. Act. τὸ λῦον, __ JS the thing that looses. the loosing thing δ ὶ that which looses. the men who loose. = < the ones who loose. those who loose. Act. ot λύοντες, the loosing men 237. It should be noticed that the English word he in the phrase he who looses is not a real—certainly not an ordi- nary—personal pronoun, but merely the light antecedent of the relative pronoun who. He has no value of its own but goes in the closest possible way with who, so as to form the phrase he who. The Greek language, rather strangely as it may seem to us, possesses no such light antecedent of the relative. The ordinary Greek way, therefore, of ex- pressing the idea he who looses is to use article with parti- ciple and say the loosing man, ὁ λύων. Similarly, the English word that in the phrase that which looses, and the English word those in the phrase those who loose, are not really demonstrative adjectives or pronouns; they do not really “point out”? anything. They are very different, for example, from the demonstratives in the phrases that house across the street or those trees over there on the campus. ‘The that and the those in these sentences could be accompanied by a pointing finger; they are real demonstratives. But the that and the those in the phrases that which looses or those that loose are simply light antecedents of the relative, and for them the Greek has no equivalent. Such phrases, therefore, must be cast into an entirely different mould before they can be translated into Greek. τα “ΝΣ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Heb 238. The English word that has a number of widely dif- ferent uses. It is (1) a conjunction, (2) a demonstrative adjective or pronoun, (3) a light antecedent of the relative, and (4) a relative pronoun like which. Example: I know that that which saves the men that receive that gospel zs the will of God. Here the first that is a conjunc- tion; the second, the light antecedent of the relative; the third, a relative pronoun; the fourth, a real demonstrative. The Greek language has a different way of expressing each of these uses of that. ‘The sentence in Greek would be as follows: γινώσκω ὅτι τὸ σῶζον τοὺς δεχομένους ἐκεῖνο TO εὐαγγέλιον τὸ θέλημα τοῦ θεοῦ ἐστιν. The two uses of the English word those may be illustrated by the sentence, those who believe will receive those good men, οἱ πιστεύοντες δέξονται ἐκείνους τοὺς ἀγαθούς. 239. The importance of this lesson and the two follow- ing lessons can hardly be overestimated. Unless the stu- dent understands thoroughly the use of participles, it will be quite impossible for him ever to master the later lessons or to read the Greek Testament. The participle is quite the crucial matter in the study of Greek. 240.

The declension of λύσας, λύσασα, λῦσαν, having loosed, the aorist active participle of λύω, is as follows: M. λύσας λύσαντος λύσαντι λύσαντα Μ. λύσαντες λυσάντων λύσασι(ν) λύσαντας Sing. F. λύσασα λυσάσης λυσάσῃ λύσασαν Plur. Lhe λύσασαι λυσασῶν λυσάσαις λυσάσας Ν. λῦσαν λύσαντος λύσαντι λῦσαν Ν. λύσαντα λυσάντων λύσασι(ν) λύσαντα 114 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 243. Like the present active participle, the aorist active participle is declined according to the third declension in the masculine and neuter, and according to the first declen- sion in the feminine. 244. The characteristic oa, which, it will be remem- bered is the sign of the aorist system (the third of the prin- cipal parts), appears throughout. ‘This ca, as in the rest of the aorist system, is added to the verb stem. 245. The augment, however, appears only in the indica- tive mood. Thus, although the aorist active indicative of λύω is ἔλυσα, the aorist active participle is not ἐλύσας, but λύσας, and although the aorist active indicative of ἀκούω is ἤκουσα the aorist active participle is not ἠκούσας but ἀκούσας. 246. The declension of λυσάμενος, ἡ, ov, having loosed for himself, the aorist middle participle of λύω, is as follows: Sing. M. oe N. N. V. λυσάμενος λυσαμένη λυσάμενον G. λυσαμένου λυσαμένης λυσαμένου D. λυσαμένῳ λυσαμένῃ λυσαμένῳ Α. λυσάμενον λυσαμένην λυσάμενον Plur. M. F. N.

Like the present middle and passive participle, the aorist middle participle (the aorist passive is quite differ- : , ; ἢ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 115 ent) is declined like an ordinary adjective of the second and first declension. 248. Like the aorist active participle and the rest of the aorist system, the aorist middle participle is formed on the aorist stem. The characteristic oa appears through- out. 249. The declension of ἰδών, ἰδοῦσα, iddv, having seen, the second aorist active participle of βλέπω (it may also be regarded as coming from ὁράω), is as follows: Sing. M. F, N. N.V. ἰδών ἰδοῦσα ἰδόν (ᾳ. ἰδόντος ἰδούσης ἰδόντος Ὠ. ἰδόντι ἰδούσῃ ἰδόντι Α. ἰδόντα ἰδοῦσαν ἰδόν Plur. M. ΒΕ. Ν.

It will be observed that the second aorist active participle is declined like the present active participle ex- cept that it has an irregular accent. The accent on the first form does not follow the verb rule of recessive accent, but is on the ultima. Thereafter the noun rule is followed, the accent remaining on the same syllable throughout, except in the genitive plural feminine, where §51 comes into play. 251. It will be remembered that the augment appears only in the indicative mood. It must therefore be dropped 116 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK from the third of the principal parts before the aorist par- ticiple can be formed. In irregular verbs like βλέπω (6paw) the dropping of the augment in the second aorist sometimes gives difficulty. The third of the principal parts of βλέπω (ὁράω) is εἶδον. Without the augment the second aorist stem 15 i6-, for ὁ was here irregularly aug- mented to e. On the other hand, the second aorist par- ticiple of λέγω is εἰπών (εἶπον being the second aor- ist indicative), because here eiz- was the second aorist stem and being regarded as long enough already was not changed at all for the augment. 252. Except in the case of a few such verbs, where the dropping of the augment from the third of the principal parts in order to get the aorist stem to which the -wy is added to form the participle, might give difficulty, the student is expected to perform the necessary processes for himself. Thus if a form ἀποθανὼν is found in the exer- cises, the student is expected to see that this form is the participle of a second aorist of which the indicative (with the augment) is ἀπέθανον. This form, since the verb is irregular, will be found in the general vocabulary. 253. The second aorist middle participle is declined exactly like the present middle participle, and differs from the present middle participle only because it is formed on the second aorist stem instead of on the present stem. Thus λαβόμενος is the second aorist middle participle of λαμβάνω, ἔλαβον being the second aorist active indicative (third of the principal parts). 254. Use of the Aorist Participle In accordance with the principle formulated in §233, that the tense of the participle is relative to the time of the leading verb, the aorist participle denotes action prior to NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 117 the action denoted by the leading verb, whether the action denoted by the leading verb is past, present or future. Examples: (1) ὁ ἀπόστολος εἰπὼν ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ βλέπει τὸν κύριον, the apostle having said these things in the temple is seeing the Lord. Here εἰπών, the aorist participle, denotes action prior to the action denoted by βλέπει. Compare Example (1) INES 232. (2) εἰπὼν ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν, having said these things he went away. The literal translation of the participle is here perfectly possible. But it would be more idiomatic English to translate, when he had said these things he went away, or after he had said these things he went away. Com- pare λέγων ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν, he went away saying these things or while he was saying these things he went away. Notice that when a Greek present participle is translated by a temporal clause in English, the English word that in- troduces the temporal clause is naturally while, and when it is an aorist participle that is to be translated into English, the English word introducing the temporal clause is nat- urally when or after. In the case of the aorist participle, the verb in the English temporal clause will often be per- fect (“has seen’”’, etc.) or pluperfect (‘“‘had seen’’, etc.)— perfect when the leading verb is present or future, and plu- perfect when the leading verb is past. (3) εἰπὼν ταῦτα ἀπέρχεται, having said these things he goes away, or after he has sazd these things he goes away. (4) προσῆλθον αὐτῷ εἰπόντι ταῦτα, they came to him after he had said these things. Here the literal transla- tion of the participle would be absolutely impossible in English, because in the English sentence they came to him having said these things, the having said would agree not with him but with the subject of the sentence, they, and the sentence would be a translation, not of προσῆλθον 118 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK αὐτῷ εἰπόντι ταῦτα but of προσῆλθον αὐτῷ εἰπόντες ταῦτα. Compare with προσῆλθον αὐτῷ εἰπόντι ταῦτα the sentence προσῆλθον αὐτῷ λέγοντι ταῦτα, which means they came to him while he was saying these things. (5) ἐλθόντες πρὸς τὸν κύριον ὀψόμεθα αὐτόν, having come to the Lord we shall.see Him, or when (or after) we have come to the Lord we shall see Him. 255. The aorist participle can of course be used attribu- tively or substantively with the article (see §234, 235). Examples: (1) ὁ μαθητὴς ὁ ἀκούσας ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ ἦλθεν εἰς TOV οἶκον, the having-heard-these-things-in-the-temple disciple went into the house, or the disciple who sane a 4 these things in the temple went into the house. On the other hand, ὁ μαθητὴς ἀκούσας ταῦτα ἐν τῷ ἱερῷ ἦλθεν εἰς τὸν οἶκον Would mean the disciple, when he had heard these things in the temple, went into the house. (2) ὁ ἀκούσας ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν, the having-heard-these- he things man went away, or [ one | who ‘had pst a| these the man things went away. On the other hand ἀκούσας ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν would mean having heard these things he went away or when he had heard these things he went away. In the former sentence ὁ ἀκούσας tells what man we are talking about, while ἀκούσας without the article merely adds a detail about a person who is designated in some other way or not desig- nated at all. (3) εἶδον τοὺς εἰπόντας ταῦτα, I saw the having-said-these- (those things men, or I saw }the ones; who had said these things. \the men] The student should compare with these examples: the corresponding examples given for the present participle. a ee ee ee eS oS Pee on Se ee ee ee ὌΝ ee ee κι :- [ as NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 119 256.

Like the present active participle and the aorist active participle, the aorist passive participle is declined according to the third declension in the masculine and neuter, and according to the first declension in the feminine. 261. The characteristic -θε, which it will be remembered is the sign of the aorist passive system (the sixth of the prin- cipal parts), appears throughout. ‘This -6e, as in the rest of the aorist passive system, is added to the verb stem. 262. The augment, of course, must be dropped (from the sixth of the principal parts) before the aorist passive participle can be formed. Compare $§251, 252. 263. The aorist passive participle has an irregular accent, the accent in the nominative singular masculine not being recessive. In the other forms of the declension the rule of noun accent is followed, except of course in the geni- tive plural feminine, where §§51, 228 come into play. 264. Like the other aorist participles, the aorist passive participle denotes action prior to the time of the leading verb; and to it applies also all that has been said about the attributive and substantive uses of the participle. Examples: (1) ἐκβληθέντα τὰ δαιμόνια ὑπὸ τοῦ κυρίου ἀπῆλθεν εἰς τὴν θάλασσαν, the demons, having been cast out by the Lord, { when went away into the sea, or | after the demons had been cast out by the Lord, they went away into the sea. (2) ἐγερθέντι ἐκ νεκρῶν προσῆλθον αὐτῷ, they came to Him after He had been raised from the dead. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 1238 (3) οἱ διδαχθέντες ὑπὸ τοῦ ἀποστόλου ἦλθον εἰς τὸν οἶκον, the having-been-taught-by-the-apostle men came into the the men house, or i a who had been taught by the apostle those came into the house. 265.

The Genitive Absolute A noun or pronoun with a participle often stands out of connection with the rest of the sentence in the construction called the genitive absolute. Examples: (1) εἰπόντων ταῦτα τῶν ἀποστόλων οἱ μαθηταὶ ἀπῆλθον, the apostles having said these things, the disciples went away. Here εἰπόντων and τῶν ἀποστόλων stand in the genitive absolute. ἀποστόλων is not the subject of any verb, the subject of the only finite verb in the sentence being μαθηταί, nor has it any other connection with the framework of the sentence. It is therefore absolute (the word means “loosed” or “separated’’). In the English translation, the apostles having said is in the absolute case, which in English grammar is called the nominative abso- lute. But this nominative absolute is very much less com- mon in English than the genitive absolute is in Greek. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 125 Usually, therefore, it is better to translate the Greek geni- tive absolute by a clause, thus giving up any attempt at a “‘literal” translation. For example, instead of the “literal” translation of the sentence just given, it would have been better to translate, when (or after) the apostles had said these things, the disciples went away. Of course all that has already been said about the tense of the participle applies to the participle in the genitive absolute as well as in other constructions. It should be noticed that the genitive absolute is used only when the noun or pronoun going with the participle is different from the subject of the finite verb. Thus in the sentence, εἰπόντες ταῦτα οἱ ἀπόστολοι ἀπῆλθον, the apostles, having said these things, went away, or when the apostles had said these things they went away, the word ἀπόστολοι has a construction in the sentence; it is the subject of the leading verb ἀπῆλθον. Therefore it is not “absolute.” But in the former example it is not the apostles but some one else that is represented as performing the action de- noted by the leading verb. Hence, in that former example ἀποστόλων is not the subject of the sentence but genitive absolute. (2) λέγοντος αὐτοῦ ταῦτα οἱ μαθηταὶ ἀπῆλθον, while he was saying these things, the disciples went away. Compare λέγων ταῦτα ἀπῆλθεν, while he was saying these things he went away or he went away saying these things. (3) τῶν μαθητῶν διδαχθέντων ὑπὸ τοῦ κυρίου ἐξῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἔρημον οἱ δοῦλοι, when the disciples had been taught by the Lord, the servants went out into the desert. Compare οἱ μαθηταὶ διδαχθέντες ὑπὸ τοῦ κυρίου ἐξῆλθον εἰς τὴν ἔρημον, when the disciples had been taught by the Lord, they went out into the desert. 126 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 267.

Vocabulary λαός, 6, a people. λοιπός, ἡ, Ov, adj. remaining; ot λοιποί, the rest (= the remaining persons). μακάριος, a, ov, adj., blessed. μαρτυρία, ἡ, a witnessing, a testimony, α witness. μηδέ, and not, nor (with moods other than the in- dicative); μηδέ...... μηδέ, neither. .... nor. μηκέτι, no longer (with moods other than the indicative). ὄχλος, ὁ, a crowd, a multitude. The subjunctive mood occurs only in the present and aorist tenses (except for very rare occurrences of the perfect). It has primary personal endings throughout, even in the aorist (which, it will be remembered, is a secondary tense). The personal endings are preceded throughout by a long variable vowel ὦ /n instead of the short variable vowel o/e which occurs in the present indicative. 270. ‘The present active subjunctive of λύω is as follows: Sing. 1. Avw Plur. 1. λύωμεν 2. UNS © 2. λύητε 3. UN 3. λύωσι(ν) ] NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 129 271. The present middle and passive subjunctive of λύω is as follows: Sing. 1. λύωμαι Plur. 1. λυώμεθα 2. AUN 2. λύησθε 3. λύηται 3. λύωνται 272. It will be observed that these present subjunctive forms are like the present indicative forms except that a long vowel comes immediately after the stem, while in the indicative there is a short vowel—w of the subjunctive standing instead of the o of the indicative, and 7 of the sub- junctive standing instead of the ε of the indicative. The only exceptions are (1) in the present active, third person plural, where w in the subjunctive stands instead of ov in the indicative, and (2) in the present middle and passive, second person singular, where the indicative already has 7 (in Avy). | 273. The -wot(v) of the third person plural active may have the movable ν. 274. The aorist active subjunctive is as follows: Sing. 1. λύσω Plur. 1. λύσωμεν 2. λύσῃς 2. λύσητε 3. λύσῃ 3. λύσωσι(ν) 275. The aorist middle subjunctive is as follows: Sing. 1. λύσωμαι Plur. 1. λυσώμεθα 2. λύσῃ 2. λύσησθε 3. λύσηται 3. λύσωνται 276. It will be observed that the endings (with variable vowel) are exactly the same in the aorist active and middle 130 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK subjunctive as they are in the present active and middle subjunctive. But these endings (with variable vowel) are in the aorist added to the aorist stem, whereas in the present they are added to the present stem. The o makes all the difference. . 277. There is in the aorist subjunctive of course no augment (see §245). 278. ‘The second aorist active and middle subjunctive is conjugated exactly like the first aorist subjunctive. Of course, however, it is formed on the second aorist stem. 279. The aorist passive subjunctive is as follows: Sing. 1. Avda Plur. 1. λυθῶμεν 2. λυθῆῇς 2. λυθῆτε 3. λυθῇ 3. λυθῶσι(ν) \ 280. The aorist passive subjunctive, like the aorist passive indicative, has active personal endings. The end- ings (with the variable vowel) are exactly like those in the present active subjunctive. But the rule of verb accent seems to be violated—the accent does not seem to be reces- sive. This apparent irregularity is due to the fact that there has been contraction, the -θε of the aorist passive stem having been contracted with the following vowels in accord- ance with the rules which will be given in §316. But for present purposes the peculiarity of the accent may simply be learned without any further attention being given to the reason for it. 281. Before the aorist subjunctives can be formed from the principal parts given in the vocabulary, the augment must be dropped in the manner explained ‘in §§251, 252. ἡ a NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 131 282. Present Subjunctive of εἰμί. Learn the present subjunctive of εἰμί in §602. 283. The Tenses in the Subjunctive In the subjunctive mood there is absolutely no distinc- tion of time between the tenses; the aorist tense does not refer to past time and the present subjunctive does not necessarily refer to present time. The distinction between the present and the aorist concerns merely the manner in which the action is regarded. The aorist subjunctive refers to the action without saying anything about its continuance or repetition, while the present subjunctive refers to it as continuing or as being repeated. Thus ἵνα λύσω means simple in order that I may loose, while ἵνα λύω means in order that I may be loosing, or the like. But ordinarily it is quite impossible to bring out the difference in an English translation. The present and the aorist subjunctive will usually have to be translated exactly alike. The student should use the aorist in the exercises unless he sees some rea- son for using the present, since the aorist presents the action in a simpler way, without any added thought of its duration. 284. The Negative of the Subjunctive The negative of the subjunctive is μή, in accordance with the rule given in §256. 285. The Hortatory Subjunctive The first person plural of the subjunctive is used in exhortations. Example: πιστεύσωμεν eis τὸν κύριον, let us believe on the Lord. 1592 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 286. The Subjunctive in Purpose Clauses Purpose is expressed by ἵνα with the subjunctive. Examples: (1) ἐρχόμεθα ἵνα ἴδωμεν αὐτόν, we come in order that we may see him. (2) ἤλθομεν ἵνα ἴδωμεν αὐτόν, we came in order that we might see him. 287. iva, in order that, with the subjunctive, must be distinguished sharply from ὅτι, that, with the indicative. The latter introduces indirect discourse. Example: Compare λέγουσιν ὅτι γινώσκουσι τὸν κύριον, they say that they know the Lord, with τοῦτο λέγουσιν ἵνα ἀκούωσιν ot μαθηταί, they say this in order that the disciples may hear. The Subjunctive in Future Conditions 288. Future conditions are expressed by ἐάν with the subjunctive; other conditions by εἰ with the indicative.} Examples: (1) ἐὰν εἰσέλθωμεν εἰς τὴν οἰκίαν ὀψόμεθα τὸν κύριον, 1 we go into the house, we shall see the Lord. Here ἐὰν εἰσ- ελθωμεν clearly refers to the future. Compare εἰ μαθηταί ἐσμεν τοῦ κυρίου σωθησόμεθα, tf we are disciples of the Lord, 1This simple rule does not cover all of the facts. For example, it takes no account of “‘present general’ conditions, which are expressed, like future conditions, by ἐάν with the subjunctive. But present general conditions are closely allied to future conditions. In the sen- tence, if any one does wrong he suffers, which is a present general con- dition, the contemplated possibility of one’s doing wrong stretches out into the future; what is meant is that at any time when a man does wrong or shall do wrong he will suffer for it. It is perhaps unnecessary, therefore, to trouble the beginner with this additional category. In general, the simple rule given in the text will serve fairly well for New Testament Greek. The exceptions can be noted as they occur. Condi- tions contrary to fact will be treated in §551. i NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 138 we shall be saved. Here the meaning is, if it 15 now a fact that we are disciples of the Lord, we shall be saved. Hence ‘2, hier τις ἐσμεν refers to present time. (2) ἐὰν διδάσκητε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς πιστοί ἐστε διδάσκαλοι, uf you teach the brethren, you are faithful teachers. Here the meaning is, 7f at any time you shall be engaged in teaching the brethren, you are faithful teachers. ἐὰν διδάσκητε here refers to an indefinite future. Compare εἰ διδάσκετε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς πιστοί ἐστε διδάσκαλοι, 10 you are teaching the brethren, you are faithful teachers. Here the meaning is, uf the work in which you are now engaged is that of teaching the brethren, you are faithful teachers. It should be observed that in order to distinguish εἰ with the indicative from ἐάν with the subjunctive, it is often advisable to choose the periphrastic present in English to translate the present indicative after εἰ. Thus ζῇ you are teaching is a present condition, while ζῇ you teach is usually a future condition. 289. The above examples will show that the difference between the two kinds of conditions here treated concerns only the protaszs (the if-clause). Various moods and tenses can stand in the apodoszs (the conclusion) after either kind of protasis. A hortatory subjunctive, for example, can stand after a simple present condition. For example, εἰ μαθηταί ἐσμεν τοῦ κυρίου διδάσκωμεν τοὺς ἀδελφούς, uf we are disciples of the Πιογὰ [1. 6., if that is now a fact], let us teach the brethren. 290. It should also be noticed that one cannot always tell from the mere form of the English sentence whether a condition is present or future. Thus in modern colloquial English we often use the present indicative to express a future condition. For example, in the sentence, if τέ rains 134 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK to-morrow, we shall not go to the picnic, of it rains clearly refers to the future and would be ἐάν with the subjunctive in Greek. It is the meaning of the English sentence, then, and not the mere form, which should be noticed in deter- mining what the Greek shall be. 291. } Exercises I. 1. ἐὰν εὐαγγελισώμεθα ὑμᾶς, λήμψεσθε σωτηρίαν καὶ 9 , SN \ / \ 4 «- “ 3 U ἐλπίδα. 2. ἐὰν μὴ δέξησθε THY μαρτυρίαν ἡμῶν, ov σωθήσεσθε. 3. ἐὰν μὴ ἴδῃ οὗτος τὸν κύριον, οὐ πιστεύσει εἰς αὐτόν.

If the Lord prepares a place for us, we shall enter into heaven. 4. If we received this com- mandment from the Lord, let us preach the gospel to the multitudes. 5. If these men are disciples of the Lord, they will not persecute the saints. 6. If these rulers persecute those who believed on the Lord, they will not come to the Lord in order that they-may be saved. 7.

Mid. λύεσθαι, one’s self. Pass. λύεσθαι, to be loosed. 294. to loose for Vocabulary κελεύω, 1 command. κώμη, ἡ, a υἱϊίαρο. μέλλω, L am about (to do something), 1 am going (to do something). ὀφείλω, I owe, I ought. πάσχω, I suffer. πρό, prep. with gen., before. σωτηρία, ἡ. salvation. Φαρισαῖος, 6, a Pharisee. Χριστός, ὁ, Christ ; ὁ Χριστός, Christ, or the Messiah. The present and aorist infinitives of λύω are as Aorist Act. λῦσαι, to loose. Mid. λύσασθαι, to loose for one’s self. Pass. λυθῆναι, to be loosed. It will be observed that the present infinitives are formed upon the present stem, the aorist active and middle infinitives upon the aorist stem (with the characteristic -ca), NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 137 and the aorist passive infinitive upon the aorist passive stem (with the characteristic -θε lengthened to -θη). 295. The first aorist active infinitive is accented upon the penult, even where this involves an exception to the rule of verb accent. Thus πιστεῦσαι, to believe, not πίστευσαι. 296. The second aorist active infinitive of λείπω is λιπεῖν, and the second aorist middle infinitive is λιπέσθαι. These are like the present infinitives in their endings except for the irregular accent. They are formed, of course, upon the second aorist stem. 297. The present infinitive of εἰμί is εἶναι. 298. ‘The infinitive is a verbal noun. In many cases the use of the Greek infinitive is so much like that of the infinitive in English as to call for no comment. Thus θέλω ἀκούειν τὸν λόγον means I wish to hear the word. Here the English is a literal translation of the Greek. 299. There is ordinarily no distinction of time between the tenses in the infinitive, but the distinction is the same as that which prevails in the subjunctive. The present infini- tive refers to the action in its continuance or as repeated; the aorist infinitive refers to it in no such special way. It is usually impossible to bring out the distinction in an English translation. 300. The negative of the infinitive is μή. The Articular Infinitive 301. The Greek infinitive, being a verbal noun, can have the article, like any other noun. It is treated as a neuter noun and so has the neuter article. 138 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 302. The infinitive with the article can stand in most of the constructions in which any other noun can stand. Thus καλόν ἐστι TO ἀποθανεῖν ὑπὲρ τῶν ἀδελφῶν, means the act of dying in behalf of the brethren is good, or, less literally, it ts good to die in behalf of the brethren. Here τὸ ἀποθανεῖν is a noun in the nominative case, being the subject of the verb ἐστιν. 303. Of particular importance is the use of the articular infinitive after prepositions. Examples: μετὰ τὸ λῦσαι, after the act of loosing; ἐν τῷ λύειν, in Or during the process of loosing; διὰ τὸ λυθῆναι, on account of the fact of being loosed; μετὰ τὸ λυθῆναι, after the fact of being loosed; πρὸ τοῦ λῦσαι, before the act of loosing; eis τὸ λῦσαι, into the act of loosing. This last preposition, eis, is very frequently used with the articular infinitive to express purpose. If one act is done so as to get znto another act, 10 15 done for the purpose of that other act. Thus eis τὸ λῦσαι means 2n order to loose. 304. So far, the infinitive has been viewed as a noun. But it is also part of a verb, and as part of a verb it can have not only, as the participle can, adverbial modifiers and a direct object, but also, unlike the participle, a subject. The subject of the infinitive is in the accusative case. Examples: (1) ἐν τῷ λέγειν αὐτοὺς ταῦτα, in (or during) the cir- cumstance that they were saying these things = while they were saying these things. Here αὐτούς is the subject of the infinitive λέγειν and ταῦτα is the direct object of it. (2) μετὰ τὸ ἀπολυθῆναι τὸν ὄχλον ἀπῆλθεν ὁ κύριος, after the circumstance that the crowd was dismissed, the Lord went away, or after the crowd had been dismissed, the Lord NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 139 went away. The same thought might have been expressed by ἀπολυθέντος Tov ὄχλου ἀπῆλθεν ὁ κύριος. (9) διὰ δὲ τὸ λέγεσθαι τοῦτο ὑπὸ τῶν ὄχλων ἀπῆλθεν ὁ ἀπόστολος, and on account of the circumstance that this was being said by the crowds, the apostle went away, or be- cause this was being said by the crowds, the apostle went away. (4) ταῦτα δὲ εἶπον ὑμῖν εἰς τὸ μὴ γενέσθαι ὑμᾶς δούλους τῆς ἁμαρτίας, and these things I said to you, with the ten- dency toward the result that you should not become servants of sin, or and these things I said to you in order that you might not become servants of sin. 305. It will be observed that the articular infinitive with prepositions is usually to be translated into English by a clause introduced by a conjunction. But it must not be supposed that the details of such translation have anything to do with the details of the Greek original. It is rather the total idea expressed by the Greek phrase which is trans- ferred into a totally different idiom. Indirect Discourse 306. Indirect discourse is sometimes expressed by the accusative and infinitive. Example: ἔλεγον of ἄνθρωποι αὐτὸν εἶναι τὸν προφήτην, the men were saying that he was the prophet. 307. But usually indirect discourse is expressed by ὅτι with the indicative. The usage is exactly like that in Eng- lish except for the following important difference: 308. In indirect discourse in Greek, in part contrary to the English usage, the same mood and tense are retained as those which stood in the direct discourse lying back of the indirect. 140 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Examples: (1) λέγει ὅτι βλέπει τὸν ἀπόστολον, he says that he sees the apostle. Here the direct discourse lying back of the indirect is I see the apostle, for such are the actual words of the speaker; such are the words which would have stood in the quotation if quotation marks had been used. In this sentence there is no difference between the Greek and the English usage. (2) εἶπεν ὅτι βλέπει τὸν ἀπόστολον, he said that he saw the apostle. Here βλέπει is in the present tense because the direct discourse lying back of the indirect discourse is J see the apostle—those were the actual words of the speaker. The tense of the direct discourse, J see, is retained in the in- direct discourse (though of course the person is changed). English, on the other hand, changes the tense in the in- direct discourse, when the leading verb is in past time. Thus, although a perfectly literal translation was possible in (1) it is impossible in (2). (3) εἶπεν ὁ μαθητὴς ὅτι εἶδεν τὸν ἀπόστολον, the disciple said that he had seen the apostle. Here the direct discourse was 1 saw the apostle, or I have seen the apostle. English throws the tense in the indirect discourse a step further back (had seen instead of saw or has seen); Greek retains the same tense. (4) εἶπεν ὅτι ὄψεται τὸν ἀπόστολον, he said that he would see the apostle. The direct discourse was I shall see. Eng- lish changes shall to would (or should with the first per- son); Greek retains the same tense. Proper Names 309. Proper names (spelled with a capital letter) often have the article. Of course the article must be omitted in an English translation. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 141 310. The declension of ’Inaods, ὁ, Jesus, is as follows: N. Ἰησοῦς G. Ἰησοῦ D. Ἰησοῦ A. Ἰησοῦν V. Ἰησοῦ 311. Certain nouns, referring to persons or things which instead of being only one of a class are quite unique, are treated as proper nouns, the article being either inserted or omitted. So θεός or ὁ θεός, God; πνεῦμα or τὸ πνεῦμα, the Spirit; κόσμος or ὁ κόσμος, the world; νόμος or ὁ νόμος, the Law. 312.

Two vowels or a vowel and a diphthong are often united into a single long vowel or diphthong. The process by which they are united is called contraction. 1 The following formulation of the rules of contraction is, in essentials, that which is given in White, Beginner’s Greek Book, 1895, pp. 75f. It has been used here by kind permission of Messrs. Ginn and Company. 144 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 315. It must not be supposed, however, that contrac- tion always takes place when two vowels or a vowel and a diphthong (even in the combinations set forth in the follow- ing rules) come together within a word. 316. The rules of contraction are as follows: I. Vowel with Vowel 1. An open and a close vowel, when the open vowel comes first, are united in the diphthong which is composed of the two vowels in question. Example: ¢-. makes εἰ. It must be observed, however, that when the close vowel comes before the open vowel, a diphthong is never formed. Thus ἐπε (for example, in ἱερόν), is always two syllables, never a diphthong. 2. Two like vowels form the common long. Examples: a-a makes long a; e-n makes ἢ; o-w makes w. 3. But ee makes ev and o-o makes ov. This rule forms an exception to rule 2. 4. An o- sound (0 or w) overcomes a, €, or ἡ (whether the o- sound comes first or second), and forms w. Examples: a-o makes ὦ ; e-w makes w. 5. But eo and o-e make ov. This rule forms an excep- tion to rule 4. 6. When a and ε or ἢ come together, whichever one comes first overcomes the other, and forms its own long. Examples: a-e and a-7 make long a; e-a makes 7. Ii. Vowel with Diphthong 1. A vowel disappears by absorption before a diphthong that begins with the same vowel. Examples: ¢-e. makes et; o-ov makes ov. es et, fis NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 145 2. When a vowel comes before a diphthong that does not begin with the same vowel, it is contracted with the diphthong’s first vowel. The diphthong’s second vowel dis- appears, unless it is e, in which case it becomes subscript. Examples: a-e makes a (a is first contracted with ε in accordance with I 6, and then the ct becomes subscript); a-ov makes w (a is contracted with o by I 4, and the v disappears); ¢--ov makes ov (e€ is contracted with o by I 5, and v disappears). 3. But o-e and o-y make ou. III. Accent of Contract Syllables 1. If either of the contracted syllables had an accent, the resulting syllable receives an accent. If the resulting syllable is a penult or an antepenult, the general rules of accent (see §11) will always tell which kind of accent it has. If the resulting syllable is an ultima it has a circumflex. Examples: (1) φιλέομεν makes φιλουμεν, in accordance with I 5. Since one of the two syllables that united to make ov had an accent, ov must have an accent. The general rules of accent declare that if the ultima is short, a long penult, if accented at all, must have the circumflex. Hence φιλοῦμεν is correct. (2) τιμαόμεθα makes τιμωμεθα in accordance with I 4. Since one of the two syllables that united to make w had an accent, w must have an accent. But in accordance with the general rules of accent only an acute can stand on an antepenult. Therefore τιμώμεθα 15 correct. (3) δηλόεις makes δηλοῖς in accordance with II 3. Since one of the two syllables that united to make ou had an accent, oc must have an accent. The general rules of accent will permit either an acute or a circumflex to stand on a long ultima. But the present rule gives special guid- ance. Therefore δηλοῖς is correct. 146 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 2. If neither of the contracted syllables had an accent, the resulting syllable receives none. Example: ἐφίλεε makes ἐφίλει in accordance with I 3. Since neither of the two syllables that unite to make εἰ is accented, ec receives no accent, and ἐφίλει is correct. Present System of Contract Verbs 317. The student should write out in the uncontracted forms the present system (present tense in all moods studied thus far, and imperfect tense) of τιμάω, 1 honor, φιλέω, I love, and δηλόω, 1 make manifest, and should then write the contract form opposite to each uncontracted form, applying the rules of contraction. The results can be tested by the conjugation of these verbs which is given in §§590-592. 318. It should be observed that there are two exceptions to the rules: (1) the present infinitive active of verbs in -aw is contracted from -άειν to -ἂν instead of to -ᾷἂν, and (2) the present infinitive active of verbs in -ow is contracted from o-ev to -οῦν instead of to -otp. 319. Contraction is carried out in all the forms of the declension of the participles. 320. In general, the uncontracted forms of these verbs in -άω, -ἐω and -όω do not occur in the New Testament. The reason why the uncontracted forms, and not the con- tract forms, of the present active indicative first person singular are given in the lexicons is that the uncontracted forms must be known before the verb can be conjugated, since it makes a great difference for the conjugation whether τιμῶ, for example, is contracted from τιμάω, τιμέω, or τιμόω. : Peg rg α NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 147 Principal Parts of Verbs in -dw, -éw and -dw 321. Verbs whose stems end in a vowel regularly lengthen that vowel (a as well as ε being lengthened to 7) before the tense suffixes (e.g. the -co/eof the future system, the -σα of the first aorist system, and the -θε of the aorist passive system). Thus the principal parts of τιμάω, so far as we have learned them, are τιμάω, τιμήσω, ἐτίμησα, —, —, ἐτιμήθην (not τιμάω, τιμάσω, etc.); the principal parts of φιλέω are φιλέω, φιλήσω, etc.; and the principal parts of δηλόω are δηλόω, δηλώσω, etc. It should be observed that this lengthening of the final vowel of the stem of these ‘‘con- tract” verbs has nothing to do with contraction. The con- traction appears only in the present system. 322. It is very important that the student should learn to reverse the process involved in this rule. Thus, if a form φανερωθείς be found in the Greek-English exercises, the student should first say to himself that the -0e in φανερωθείς is evidently the sign of the aorist passive system. ‘The verb stem without the tense suffix would be ¢davepw-. But since the final vowel of the verb stem is lengthened before the tense suffix -θε, the verb stem was davepo- and the verb was φανερόω. Or if a form ἠρωτήθη be found, the student should first say to himself that the -θη is evidently the ending of the aorist passive indicative, third person singu- lar, like ἐλύθη. But the aorist passive indicative has the augment, which if the verb begins with a vowel consists in the lengthening of that vowel. Therefore, to get the verb, the ἡ at the beginning of ἠρωτήθη must be shortened. But 7 is the long of either aore. It cannot be determined, therefore, whether the verb began with aor e. Again, the n just before the -θη in ἠρωτήθη was the lengthened form of the verb stem. ‘The verb stem therefore ended in either aore. Accordingly there are four possibilities as to the verb 148 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK from which ἠρωτήθη may be found to have come; ἠρωτήθη may be found to have come from ἀρωτέω, dpwrdw, ἐρωτέω, or ἐρωτάω. Trying each of these in the lexicon we discover that the last is correct. 323. καλέω is an exception to the rule just given. It does not lengthen the final ε of the stem before the o of the future and aorist systems. The aorist passive, more- over, is irregularly formed. 324.

II. 1. Those things spake Jesus to those who were fol- lowing Him out of Galilee. 2. I was beholding Him who had loved me and died in behalf of me. 3. Let us worship the One who does these things and bless His holy name. 4. Those who were beholding Him as He was walking in Galilee were saying that they did not wish to follow Him. 5. Having followed Jesus as He was walking in Galilee, they beheld Him also after He had been raised up from the dead. 6. Let us seek the One who has spoken to us words of hope. 7. Let us bless the name of the One who walked with us in the world and was crucified in behalf of us. 8. If ' thou followest Him who does these things, thou wilt behold Him in His glory. 9. If we do not love those who bless us we will not love those who do evil things. 10. He loves us and makes manifest to us His glory, in order that we may bless God for ever. 11. While the multitudes were follow- ing Jesus and were hearing the things which were being spoken by Him, the rulers were saying that they did not love Him. 12. I will show to those who have followed me the things which have been shown to me by Jesus. 13. These are those who love Jesus and beheld His works and were called into His kingdom. 14. His brother exhorted him to follow Jesus in order that he might be with Him for ever. 15. This parable we speak to those who love God and keep His commandments. 16. This is the child that blesses God and loves Him. 150 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK LESSON XXIV Future and First Aorist Active and Middle of Liquid Verbs. Future of εἰμί.

Reflexive Pronouns Vocabulary 3 , émt, prep. with gen., over, on, at the time of; with dat., on, on the basis of, at; with acc., on, to, against (ἐπί is an exceedingly common, but a_ rather difficult, preposition. Its various uses must be learned by observation in reading). ἔσομαι, I shall be, fut. of εἰμί. μενῶ, ἔμεινα, fut. and aor. of μένω, 1 remain. peravoew, I repent. σεαυτοῦ, reflexive pron., of thyself. σπείρω, σπερῶ, ἔσπειρα, —, —, ἐσπάρην, I sow. φοβέομαι, dep. with passive forms, I am afraid, I fear, 7 am afraid of. Liquid verbs are verbs whose stems end in ἃ, yp, », or p, these consonants being called lzquids, NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 151 327. The Future of Liquid Verbs The future active and middle of liquid verbs is formed, not by adding -go /e, as is the case with other verbs, but by adding -eo/e, to the verb stem. The ε contracts with the following variable vowel, in accordance with the rules of contraction given in the preceding lesson. Thus the future active and middle of liquid verbs is conjugated exactly like the present of verbs in -ew. 328. The future active indicative of κρίνω, I judge, is as follows: Sing. 1. κρινῷ Plur. 1. κρινοῦμεν 2. κρινεῖς 2. κρινεῖτε 3. κρινεῖ 3. κρινοῦσιᾳ(ν) 329. It will be observed that the only way in which the future active indicative in the three persons of the singular and in the third person plural is distinguished (in appear- ance) from the present active indicative of κρίνω is by the accent. 330. The future middle indicative of κρίνω is as follows: Sing. 1. κρινοῦμαι Plur. 1. κρινούμεθα 2. κρινῇ 2. κρινεῖσθε 3. κρινεῖται 3. κρινοῦνται 331. It will be remembered (see §157) that the verb stem is often disguised in the present system. Thus the future of a liquid verb is often distinguished from the present by something more than the addition of the e. Example: The future of βάλλω is βαλῶ, Bad- and not βαλλ- being the verb stem. Even κρινῶ really differs from the present κρίνω in that the cis short in the future and 152 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK long in the present. But even that distinction does not prevail in the case of μένω. 332. Some verbs have liquid stems in the future but not in other tenses. Example: The future of λέγω is ἐρῶ. The First Aorist of Liquid Verbs 333. The first aorist active and middle of liquid verbs is formed not by adding -ca to the verb stem but by adding -a alone and making changes within the body of the word, the verb stem usually being lengthened (ε lengthened not to n but to εἰ). The conjugation, in all the moods, is like the conjugation of other first aorists. Examples: (1) The first aorist active of μένω, 1 remain, is ἔμεινα (indic.), μείνω (subj.), μεῖναι (infin.) and μείνας (part.). (2) The first aorist active of ἀποστέλλω, I send, is ἀπέστειλα (indic.), ἀποστείλω (subj.), ἀποστεῖλαι (infin.) and ἀποστείλας (part.). 334. Of course liquid verbs may have second aorists or irregular aorists. So the aorist of βάλλω is a second aorist ἔβαλον. Some verbs, moreover, may have a present stem ending in a liquid, and yet not be liquid verbs. Thus λαμβάνω is not a liquid verb, the verb stem being λαβ-. The student is reminded again that one cannot always predict what the various tense systems of a Greek verb will be. The lexicon must be consulted. 335. Future Indicative of εἰμί. The future indicative of εἰμί, 1 am, is as follows: Sing. 1. ἔσομαι Plur. 1. ἐσόμεθα 2. ἔσῃ 2. ἔσεσθε 3. ἔσται 3. ἔσονται Said iy FONT te: fe δ και lan χοῦ Rr BI παρ πῶς ἐὰν NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 153 It will be observed that the conjugation is just like that of the future middle of λύω, except that in the third person singular the variable vowel is omitted, ἔσται stand- ing instead of ἔσεται. 336. The English Preparatory Use of ‘‘There”’ The word there is sometimes put before the verb in an English sentence without any special force except as an indication that the subject is to follow the verb. This “preparatory” there is not translated at all in Greek. Examples: (1) χαρὰ ἔσται ἐν οὐρανῷ, there shall be joy in heaven. (2) ἦσαν μαθηταὶ ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, there were disciples in the house. Declension of Reflexive Pronouns 337. The declension of ἐμαυτοῦ, ἧς, of myself, the reflexive pronoun of the first person, is as follows: Sing. Plur, G. ἐμαυτοῦ ἐμαυτῆς G. ἑαυτῶν ἑαυτῶν 10. ἐμαυτῷ ἐμαυτῇ D. ἑαυτοῖς ἑαυταῖς A. ἐμαυτόν ἐμαυτήν Α. ἑαυτούς ἑαυτάς 338. The declension of σεαυτοῦ, ἧς, of thyself, the reflex- ive pronoun of the second person, is as follows: Sing. Plur. G. σεαυτοῦ σεαυτῆς G. ἑαυτῶν ἑαυτῶν 1). σεαυτῷ σεαυτῇ 1). ἑαυτοῖς ἑαυταῖς A. σεαυτόν σεαυτὴν A. ἑαυτοὺς ἑαυτάς 154 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 339. The declension of ἑαυτοῦ, ἧς, ot, of himself, of herself, of itself, the reflexive pronoun of the third person, is as follows: Sing. Plur. M. id, N. M. Ke N. G. ἑαυτοῦ ἑαυτῆς ἑαυτοῦ G. ἑαυτῶν ἑαυτῶν ἑαυτῶν Τὴ. ἑαυτῷ ἑαυτῇ ἑαυτῷ 1). ἑαυτοῖς ἑαυταῖς ἑαυτοῖς Α. ἑαυτόν ἑαυτὴν ἑαυτό Α. ἑαυτούς ἑαυτάς ἑαυτά 340. It will be observed that the declension of the reflex- ive pronouns is like that of αὐτός, except that there is no nominative case and in the reflexive pronouns of the first and second persons no neuter gender. 341. In the plural, ἑαυτῶν, which originally belonged only to the pronoun ἑαυτοῦ of the third person, is made to do duty for all three persons. 342. Use of Reflexive Pronouns Reflexive pronouns are pronouns that refer back to the subject of the clause. Examples: (1) οὐ λαλῶ περὶ ἐμαυτοῦ, I do not speak concerning myself; (2) οὐ δοξάζεις σεαυτόν, thou dost not glorify thyself; (3) οὐκ ἔχει ζωὴν ἐν ἑαυτῷ, he has not life in - himself ; (4) δοξάζετε ἑαυτούς, ye glorify yourselves. 343. Reciprocal Pronoun The reciprocal pronoun is ἀλλήλων, of one another, of each other. It occurs in the New Testament only in the forms ἀλλήλων, of one another, ἀλλήλοις to or for one another, and ἀλλήλους, one another (βλέπουσιν ἀλλήλους, they see one another). ἄν» NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 155 344.

Let us not begin to say! in ourselves that 1 With ἄρχομαι, 1 begin, the present infinitive, not the aorist infini- tive, should be used. 156 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK we do not know Him. 3. We shall not fear the ruler who killed the prophets, for God will send His angels to us. 4. When the soldiers had killed Jesus our Lord, we were afraid and went away from Him. 5. He said that it was not necessary for us to see each other. 6. If ye persecute and kill those who are being sent to you, ye shall no longer be the people of God. 7. The multitudes went away, but those who remained said that He had the words of life. 8. When Jesus had spoken these things and had sent His disciples into the villages of Galilee, the Pharisees were afraid of the people. 9. Having killed Jesus they will cast out of their synagogues those who have believed on Him. 10. The apostle himself did not save himself, but God was the One who saved him. 11. When the Lord had spoken this parable, those rulers said that they would kill those who had been sent by Him. 12. Unless Jesus himself sends us we shall not be disciples of Him. 13. Unless ye repent ye will remain in sin forever. 14. He who said this word to the One who sent the apostles will say the same word also to those who have been sent by Him. 15. Those good disciples, having loved those who were following Jesus, will love also those who follow His apostles. 16. Those who saw Him as He was walking in Galilee will behold Him in heaven for ever. eee τ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 157 LESSON XXV More Nouns of the Third Declension Adjectives of the Third Declension in -ns, -es 345.

Before studying the present lesson, the student should review the paradigms in Lesson XVII. 347. The declension of χάρις, χάριτος, ἡ, grace, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. V. xapes N. V. χάριτες G. χάριτος G. χαρίτων D. χάριτι D. χάρισι(ν) A. χάριν A. χάριτας 158 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 348. This noun differs from those in §211, in that the accusative singular ending is -ν instead of -a. The final τ of the stem (yapir-) drops out before the -v. If χάρις were declined like ἐλπίς the accusative singular would be χάριτα. 349. The declension of πόλις, πόλεως (Stem πολι-), ἡ, a city, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. πόλις N.V. πόλεις G. πόλεως G. πόλεων 1). πόλει 10. πόλεσι(ν) Α. πόλιν Α. πόλεις V. πόλι 350. The final c of the stem is changed to ε except in the nominative, accusative and vocative singular. πόλει in the dative singular is contracted from πόλεει, and πόλεις in the nominative plural from πόλε-ες, in accordance with the rules of contraction given in Lesson XXIII. The accusative plural has -es, instead of -eas or (as the rules of contraction would require) -ys. The accusative singular has instead of -a the v- ending which appears in certain other third declension nouns such as χάρις. The genitive singular ending is -ws instead of -os. The accent in the genitive singular and plural of this class of nouns is the only exception to the rule that if the ultima is long the antepenult cannot be accented (see §11). 351. These third-declension nouns in -ἰς with genitives in -ews, of which πόλις is an example, form a very impor- tant class of nouns in the New Testament. The nouns of this class are declined alike and are all of feminine gender. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 159 352. The declension of γένος, γένους, (stem yeveo-), τό, α race, is as follows: Sing. Plur, N. A.V. γένος N. A.V. γένη G. γένους G. γενῶν D. γένει D. γένεσι(ν) 353. The final o of the stem (yevec-) is dropped except in the nominative singular. The ε which is then left at the end of the stem is contracted with the vowels of the regular third-declension endings, in accordance with the rules of contraction given in Lesson XXIII. 354. These third-declension nouns in -os, τοὺς, are de- clined alike, and are all of neuter gender. 355. The declension of βασιλεύς, βασιλέως (stem βασι- λευ-), ὁ, is as follows: Sing. Plur. N. βασιλεύς N. V. βασιλεῖς G. βασιλέως G. βασιλέων D. βασιλεῖ D. βασιλεῦσι(ν) A. βασιλέα A. βασιλεῖς V. βασιλεῦ 356. The final v of the stem is dropped before those endings which begin with a vowel. Contraction takes place in the dative singular and nominative plural. The genitive singular has -ws instead of -os (compare πόλις.). But the accusative singular has the a-ending, not the v-ending. 357. These nouns in -evs, -ews are masculine. 358. Observe the declension of πατήρ and of ἀνήρ in $565. 160 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 359. The declension of other third-declension nouns will give little difficulty when once the genitive singular and the gender are known. Only the dative plural is sometimes troublesome, but the forms can at least be easily recognized when they occur. 360. The declension of ἀληθής, és (stem ἀληθεσ-), true, is as follows: Sing. Plur. M.F. N. M.F. N. N. ἀληθής ἀληθές N.V. ἀληθεῖς ἀληθῆ G. ἀληθοῦς ἀληθοῦς G. ἀληθῶν ἀληθῶν D. ἀληθεῖ ἀληθεῖ D. ἀληθέσι(ν) ἀληθέσι(ν) Α. ἀληθῆ ἀληθές Α. ἀληθεῖς ἀληθῆ Υ. ἀληθές ἀληθές 361. The final σ of the stem is dropped in most of the forms, and contraction then takes place. Compare πόλις, γένος, and βασιλεύς. 362. This is the first adjective studied thus far which is declined according to the third declension in the feminine as well as in the masculine and neuter. 363.

The masculine and neuter stem is zavr- and the word is declined nearly like the first aorist active participle of λύω. But the accent is slightly irregular in the mascu- line and neuter, since it follows the rule for monosyllables of the third declension (see §221) in the singular but not in the plural. The Use of πᾶς 367. πᾶς can stand in the predicate position with a noun that has the article. This usage corresponds so exactly with English as to call for little explanation. Example: πᾶσα ἡ πόλις, all the city. 368. But πᾶς can also stand in the attributive position. Example: ἡ πᾶσα πόλις, the whole city; ot πάντες μαθηταί, the whole body of disciples, all the disciples. 369. With a singular noun, πᾶς often means every. Example: πᾶν ὄρος, every mountain. πᾶς is frequently used with article and participle. Examples: πᾶς ὁ πιστεύων, everyone who believes; πάντες οἱ πιστεύοντες, all those who believe; πάντα τὰ ὄντα ἐκεῖ, all the things that are there. 370. Declension of πολύς and of μέγας Learn the declension of πολύς, πολλή, πολύ, much, many, great, and of μέγας, μεγάλη, μέγα, great, in §§574, 575. It will be observed that except for the short forms in the NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 165 nominative, vocative and accusative, masculine and neu- ter singular, these two adjectives are declined like ordi- nary adjectives of the second and first declension. Numerals 371. The declension of εἷς, μία, ἕν, one, is as follows: M. F, N. N. eis pla ἕν G. ἑνός μιᾶς ἑνός D. evi μιᾷ. ἑνί Α. ἕνα μίαν ἕν The slight irregularities should be noticed. 372. The declension of οὐδείς, οὐδεμία, οὐδέν, no one, and μηδείς, μηδεμία, μηδέν, no one, is like that of εἷς. 373. δύο, two, is indeclinable (the same for all cases and genders) except that it has a dative form δυσί(ν). 374. The declension of τρεῖς, τρία, three, and of τέσσαρες, τέσσαρα, four, may be found in §588. 375. The other cardinal numerals up to διακόσιοι, two hundred, are indeclinable. Attributive and Substantive Uses of Prepositional Phrases and of the Genitive 376. Prepositional phrases are frequently treated as attributive adjectives, being placed after the article. Example: οἱ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ πόλει μαθηταί, or οἱ μαθηταὶ ot ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ πόλει, the in-that-city disciples, or (by a free translation) the disciples who are [or, if the leading verb is past, were| in that city. Here the prepositional phrase takes the exact place of an attributive adjective. It will be remembered that οἱ ἀγαθοὶ μαθηταί or οἱ μαθηταὶ οἱ 166 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK ἀγαθοί means the good disciples (see $70). If in these two Greek phrases ἐν τῇ πόλει be substituted for the attributive adjective ἀγαθοί we have the idiom now under discussion. 377. Like other attributive adjectives, these preposi- tional phrases can be used substantively. Example: As oi ἀγαθοί means the good men, so οἱ ἐν τῇ πόλει means the in-the-city men, or the men who are (or were) in the city. 378. A noun in the genitive case can be used in this same way. Example: As oi ἀγαθοὶ means the good men, so ot Tov Ἰησοῦ means the of-Jesus men, the belonging-to-Jesus men, | the ones the i who belong to Jesus. those 379. The genitive in this usage may indicate various relationships. Sometimes it indicates sonship. Thus ὁ τοῦ ZeGedatov may mean the son of Zebedee. The context must determine. All that is certainly implied in the Greek is that the person spoken of is connected in some way with Zebedee. The literal meaning of the phrase is the belonging-to-Zebedee man. 380. Notice that the disciples who are in the city may be expressed by of μαθηταὶ of ὄντες ἐν TH πόλει, the being- wn-the-city disciples. But the ὄντες is not needed. So also those who are in the city might be οἱ ὄντες ἐν τῇ πόλει, the berng-in-the-city people. But again the ὄντες is not needed. The prepositional phrase can be used as an attributive adjec- tive just as well as the participle (with its modifiers) can. 381. All three of the idioms just discussed (οἱ ἐν τῇ πόλει μαθηταί, οἱ ἐν TH πόλει, and οἱ τοῦ ᾿Ιησοῦ) are im- ΡΥ ΤῊ ogee Ae δον tity a ῃ «Ἢ ry Frey eae. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 167 portant. It should now be increasingly evident how much of Greek syntax is dependent on the distinction between the attributive and the predicate position. See §§68-74. 382. Accusative of Extent of Space and Time The accusative is used to express extent of space or time, answering the question how far? or how long? Examples: ἐπορεύθην μετ᾽ αὐτοῦ στάδιον ἕν, I went with him one furlong; ἔμεινα μίαν ἡμέραν, I remained one day. 383. Exercises I. 1. μείνας σὺν αὐτῷ ἔτη τρία ἦλθεν εἰς ἐκείνην THY πόλιν.

Many are those that go down into the evil way, but few are those who walk in the ways of life. 4. If ye become disciples of me I will show you all things. 5. By the grace of God all we have become disciples of Jesus. 6. Through faith we have become children of our Father who is in heaven, for Jesus has saved us. 7. Let us do all the things that are in the law, according to the things that are being said to us by the prophets. 8. In that great city we saw three disciples of the Lord praying to their Father in heaven.? 9. When Jesus had called one of the three men who were in the boat, he spake to him all the things concerning the Kingdom of God. 10. We were in the same city one year, but Jesus sent us into all the villages which are in Galilee. 11. When Jesus had done all these great things, the Pharisees said that a demon was in Him. 12.

Vocabulary aitéw, I ask, I request. et, Whether (in indirect ques- tions); the common mean- ing, 2f, has already been given. ἐπερωτάω, I ask a question of, 1 question. ἐρωτάω, I ask a question, I ask a question of, I ques- tion, I ask (Originally ἐρωτάω meant to ask in the sense of to question, and αἰτέω meant to ask in the sense of to request. But in New ‘Testament Greek ἐρωτάω is frequently used in the latter sense as well as in the former). καρπός, ὃ, a fruit. κρίσις, ἡ, α Judgment. ὅπου, adv., where (relative). és, 7, 8, rel. pron., who, which. ὅταν for ὅτε ἄν, whenever (with subjunctive). ὅτε, adv., when (relative). οὖν, conj}., accordingly, there- fore, then (postpositive, like δέ πα yap. See §91). πίνω, πίομαι (very irregu- lar future), ἔπιον, J drink. ποῦ, adv., where? (interroga- tive). πῶς, adv., how? (nterroga- tive). Tis, Tl, interrogative pron., who? which? what? Tis, TL, indefinite pron., someone, something, a cer- tain one, a certain thing. φάγομαι, fut. (very irregular), ἔφαγον, 2nd aor., of ἐσθίω, peat: μὴ Ay i NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 171 Interrogative and Indefinite Pronouns 385. The declension of the interrogative pronoun, τίς, τί, who? which? what?, is as follows: Sing. Plur. M. F. N. M. F. N. N. τίς τί τίνες τίνα ἃ. τίνος τίνος Ὶ τίνων τίνων D. τίνι τίνι τίσι(ν) τίσι(ν) Α. τίνα τί τίνας τίνα 386. The declension is according to the third declension in all three genders, the masculine and feminine being alike throughout, and the neuter differing from the masculine and feminine only in the nominative and accusative. 387. The acute accent in the interrogative pronoun is never changed to the grave. Example: τί λέγει ; what does he say? 388. The declension of the indefinite pronoun, τίς, τι, some one, something, a certain one, a certain thing, is as fol- lows: Sing. Plur. Vie iis N. M.F. N. ἸΝ τὶς τι τινές τινά α. τινός τινός τινῶν τινῶν DD. rut τινί τισί(ν) τισί(ν) τινὰ τι τινάς τινά 389. ‘The indefinite pronoun is declined like the inter- rogative pronoun except that all the forms of the indefinite pronoun are enclitic and receive an accent only when the rules in §92 so prescribe. 172 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 390. Both the interrogative and the indefinite pronouns can be used either with a noun or separately. Examples: (1) τίνα καρπὸν ἔχετε; what fruit have ye? (2) τί λέγεις; what dost thou say? (3) ἄνθρωπός τις, a cer- tain man; (4) εἶπέν τις, ἃ certain man said. 391. The accusative singular neuter, τί, of the inter- rogative pronoun is often used adverbially to mean why. Example: τί ποιεῖτε ταῦτα ; why do ye do these things? Indirect Questions 392. Indirect questions, like the ordinary form of indi- rect discourse (see 8908), retain the same mood and tense as those which would have been found in the direct dis- course lying back of the indirect. 393. The same interrogative words are commonly used in indirect questions as those which are used in direct ques- tions. Examples: ἠρώτησεν αὐτὸν τίς ἐστιν, he asked him who he was. The direct question lying back of the indirect was, τίς εἶ; who art thou? (2) εἶπεν αὐτοῖς ποῦ μένει, he told them where he was abiding. The direct question which he was answering was ποῦ μένεις ; where art thou abiding? 394. Deliberative Questions The subjunctive is used in deliberative questions. A deliberative question is a question that expects an answer in the imperative mood. Examples: (1) ποιήσωμεν τοῦτο ἢ μὴ ποιήσωμεν; shall we do this or shall we not do τ|ῦ The answer expected is in the imperative — do zt or do not do τί. (2) τί ποιήσωμεν; what shall we do? The natural answer is do this or do that, or the like. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 175 The Relative Pronoun 395. The declension of the relative pronoun, és, 4, 6, who, which, is as follows: Sing. Plur. M. ie N. M. ie N. N. ὅς 7 6 οἵ αἵ ἅ (Ποὺ τῆς οὗ ὧν ὧν ὧν 1 ὦ ἣ ᾧ ΟΙ ἀϊτο OLS Α. ὅν nv ὄὅ οὕς ἅς ἅ 396. It will be observed that except for 6 instead of ὅν in the nominative and accusative singular neuter (compare αὐτός and ἐκεῖνος) the declension of the relative pronoun is like that of a regular adjective of the second and first declension. The nominative singular feminine and the nominative plural masculine and feminine are like the cor- responding forms of the article except that the article in those forms is proclitic. 397. Like other pronouns, the relative pronoun agrees with its antecedent in gender and number but has its own case in its own clause. Example: (1) ὁ ἀπόστολος ὃν εἶδες ἀπῆλθεν, the apostle whom you saw went away; (2) ἀληθῆ ἣν πάντα ἃ εἶπεν ὁ Ἰησοῦς, all things which Jesus said were true; (3) ὁ μαθητὴς ὃν ἠγάπησεν ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς ἦν ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, the disciple whom Jesus loved was in the house. 398. But where the antecedent of the relative pronoun is in the genitive or dative case and the relative pronoun itself would naturally be in the accusative case as the object of the verb in the relative clause, it 15 regularly attracted to the case of its antecedent. Examples: πάντων δὲ θαυμαζόντων ἐπὶ πᾶσιν ois ἐποίει εἶπεν πρὸς τοὺς μαθητὰς αὐτοῦ...., but when all were 174 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK wondering at all the things which He was doing, He said to his CISCL Nese aes Here ois would have been accusative if it had retained the case which it would have had in its own clause. But it is attracted to the case of πᾶσιν. 399. The antecedent of the relative pronoun is fre- quently left unexpressed. Thus ὅς can mean he who; ἥ, she who; 6, that which, what; οἵ, the men who, or they who; αἵ, the women who; ἅ, the things which. Examples: (1) οὐκ ἔξεστίν μοι ὃ θέλω ποιῆσαι, it 2s not lawful for me to do that which I wish (or to do what I wish). (2) ὃς yap οὐκ ἔστιν καθ᾽ ὑμῶν ὑπὲρ ὑμῶν ἐστιν, for he who is not against you ts for you. In such a case essentially the same thought is expressed as by the article with participle —dés οὐκ ἔστιν is almost like ὁ μὴ ὦν. But in many cases only the article with participle could be used. For example zn the one who has could hardly be expressed in any way but by ἐν τῷ ἔχοντι. (3) ἔχω ὃ θέλω, I have what I wish. Here the English word what is a short way of saying the thing which or that which and so is correctly translated by 6. Compare λέγω αὐτῷ τί ἔχω, I tell him what I have. Here the English word what is an inter- rogative word in an indirect question, and so is correctly translated by τί. Conditional Relative Clauses 400. The indefinite relative clauses which in English are marked by the suffix -ever added to the relative word (e. g., whoever, whichever, whatever, wherever, whenever), have in Greek ordinarily the subjunctive with the particle ἄν or ἐάν. This is one of the commonest uses of the subjunctive. Examples: (1) ἃς yap ἐὰν θέλῃ τὴν ψυχὴν αὐτοῦ σῶσαι οὐ σώσει αὐτήν, for whoever wishes to save his life shall not save it; (2) ὃς ἂν πιστεύσῃ σωθήσεται, whoever believes lor ᾽ - NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 175 shall believe] shall be saved; (3) eis ἣν δ᾽ ἂν πόλιν εἰσέλθητε ὄψεσθε ἐν αὐτῇ μαθητάς, and into whatever city ye enter [or shall enter] ye shall see disciples in it; (4) ὅπου ἐὰν ἢ ὁ διδάσκαλος ἐκεῖ ἔσονται καὶ οἱ διδασκόμενοι ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, wherever the teacher is there will be also those who are being taught by him. 401. It will be observed that the verb in the English translation of these conditional relative clauses can be either future indicative or present indicative. It often makes little difference which is used. In such clauses the present indicative in English frequently refers to future time. 402.

Thus οὐ λέγω οὐδέν means 7 do not say anything, or I say nothing. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 177 LESSON XXVIII The Imperative Mood 403. Vocabulary ἁγιάζω, 1 hallow, I sanctify. ὅστις, ἥτις, ὅτι, (plural ἀγρός, ὁ, a field. οἵτινες), indef. rel. pron., γῆ, ἡ, earth, land (γῆ has the whoever, whichever, what- circumflex accent through- ever (scarcely used except out, because there has been in the nominative case; contraction). sometimes used almost like ἐγγύς, adv., near. the simple relative pro- ἔλεέω, I have mercy on, I noun ὅς). pity. ) οὖς, ὠτός, TO, an ear. ὀφθαλμός, ὁ, an eye. ὅσος, ἡ, ov, rel. adj., as great σκότος, σκότους, τό, darkness. as,asmuchas,asmanyas. ὕδωρ, ὕδατος, τό, water. φῶς, φωτός, τό, light. 404. The imperative mood occurs in the New Testa- ment almost exclusively in the present and aorist tenses. 405. The present imperative, active, middle, and pas- sive, is formed on the present stem; the aorist imperative, active and middle, on the aorist stem; and the aorist passive imperative, on the aorist passive stem. There is of course no augment. See §245. 406. ‘The imperative mood has no first person, but only second and third. 178 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 407. The present active imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. Ave, doose (thou). Plur. 2. λύετε, loose (ye). 3. λυέτω, let him loose. 3. λυέτωσαν, let them loose. ° 408. The present middle imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. Avov, loose (thou) Plur. 2. λύεσθε, loose (ye) for for thyself. yourselves. 3. λυέσθω, let him 3. λυέσθωσαν, let them loose for himself. loose for themselves. 409. ‘The present passive imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. Avov, be (thou) Plur. 2. λύεσθε, be (ye) loosed. loosed. 3. λυέσθω, let him be 3. λυέσθωσαν, let them loosed. be loosed. 410. It will be observed that the present active and the present middle and passive imperative have the variable vowel o /e. 411. The aorist active imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. λῦσον, loose (thou). Plur. 2. λύσατε, loose (ye). 3. λυσάτω, let him 3. λυσάτωσαν, let them loose. loose. 412. The aorist middle imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. λῦσαι, loose (thou) Plur. 2. λύσασθε, loose (ye) for thyself. for yourselves. 3. λυσάσθω, let him 3. λυσάσθωσαν, let them loose for himself. loose for themselves. 413. It will be observed that the aorist active and the aorist middle imperative have the characteristic -σαὰ of the διδούς ee NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 179 aorist stem. This -ca is disguised only in λῦσον, the second aorist active imperative, second person singular. 414. The aorist passive imperative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 2. λύθητι, be (thou) Plur. 2. λύθητε, be (ye) loosed. loosed. 3. λυθήτω, let him be 3. λυθήτωσαν, let them loosed. be loosed. 415. It will be observed that the aorist passive impera- tive has the characteristic -θε of the aorist passive stem. This -θε is lengthened to -θη. 416. The second aorist active imperative of λείπω, I leave, is as follows: Sing. 2. λίπε, leave (thou). Plur. 2. λίπετε, leave (ye). 3. λιπέτω, let him 3. λιπέτωσαν, let them leave. leave. 417. The second aorist middle imperative of λείπω 15 as follows: Sing. 2. λιποῦ Plur. 2. λίπεσθε 3. λιπέσθω 3. λιπέσθωσαν 418. It will be observed that the second aorist active and the second aorist middle imperative are formed on the second aorist stem. ‘They have the same endings as the present imperative. 419. The second aorist middle imperative second per- son singular (6. g. Avwov) always has an irregular accent, instead of following the rule of recessive accent. Further, the forms εἰπέ, ἔλθέ, from λέγω and ἔρχομαι, have an irregular accent. 180 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 420. The Tenses in the Imperative Mood There is no distinction of time between the tenses in the imperative mood. The aorist imperative refers to the action without saying anything about its duration or repe- tition, while the present imperative refers to it as con- tinuing or as being repeated. Thus λῦσον means simply loose, while λῦε means continue loosing, or the like. Ordinarily it is impossible to bring out the difference in an English translation. Compare §283. 421. The Use of the Imperative The imperative mood is used in commands. Examples: ἀκούσατε τοὺς λόγους μου, hear my words; ὁ ἔχων ὦτα ἀκουέτω, let him who has ears hear. It will be observed that the English language has, properly speaking, no imperative of the third person. Hence in translating the Greek imperative of the third person we have to use the helping verb let, so that the noun or pronoun that is the subject of the imperative in Greek becomes the object of the helping verb in English. 422. Prohibition Prohibition (the negative of a command) is expressed by the present imperative with μή or by the aorist subjunctive with μή. , Examples: (1) μὴ Ave or μὴ λύσῃς, do not loose (μὴ λύῃς or μὴ λῦσον would be wrong); (2) μὴ λυέτω or μὴ λύσῃ, let him not loose; (3) μὴ λύετε or μὴ λύσητε, do not loose; (4) μὴ λυέτωσαν or μὴ λύσωσιν, let them not loose. 423. Present Imperative of εἰμί The present imperative of εἰμί, I am, is as follows: Sing. 2. ἴσθι, be (thou). Plur. 2. ἔστε be (ye). 3. ἔστω, let him be. 3. ἔστωσαν, let them be. ne _™ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 181 424.

The meaning of the verb here is to take place, to be done. 3The passive of ἐγείρω is frequently used as a deponent meaning I arise, I rise. 182 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK II. 1.

In other tenses ἀπο- θνήσκω is used). μαρτυρέω, 1 bear witness. Πέτρος, 6, Peter. πληρόω, I fulfil. The perfect active indicative of λύω is as follows: Bhima λελύκαμεν 2. λελύκατε 3. λελύκασι (or λέλυκαν) 427. The perfect active infinitive of λύω is λελυκέναι. The irregular accent should be noticed. 184 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 428. The perfect active participle of λύω is λελυκώς, λελυκυΐα, NEAUKOS. The irregular accent should be noticed. 429. The forms given above constitute the perfect system, which is formed from the fourth of the principal parts, λέλυκα. 430. The perfect system is formed by adding x (in the indicative xa) to the verb stem, and by prefixing the redu- plication. The reduplication consists in the first consonant of the verb stem followed by e. 431. The perfect, being a primary tense, might be ex- pected to have primary personal endings. But in the indica- tive the endings are exactly like the (secondary) endings of the first aorist, except in the third person plural, and even in the third person plural λέλυκαν sometimes stands instead of λελύκασι(ν). 432. The perfect active subjunctive is so rare that it need not be learned. 433. The declension of the perfect active participle is as follows: Sing. M. Τὺ Ν. Ν. λελυκώς λελυκυῖα λελυκός G. λελυκότος λελυκυίας λελυκότος 1ὴ. λελυκότι λελυκυίᾳ λελυκότι Α. λελυκότα λελυκυῖαν λελυκός Plur. M. Be N.

It will be observed that the perfect active parti- ciple, like the other active. participles and like the aorist passive participle, is declined according to the third declen- sion in the masculine and neuter and according to the first declension in the feminine. Formation of the Perfect Stem in Various Verbs 435. If the verb stem begins with a vowel or diphthong, the reduplication consists in the lengthening of that vowel or diphthong. In this case the reduplication is like the aug- ment. Examples: The perfect active of ἐλπίζω is ἤλπικα, and of αἰτέω, ἤτηκα. 436. If the verb stem begins with two consonants the reduplication in certain cases (by no means always) con- sists in the prefixing of an é (like the augment) instead of the repetition of the first consonant with e. Examples: ἔγνωκα is the perfect of γινώσκω. But γέγραφα is the perfect of γράφω. 437. Verb stems beginning with ¢, 6 or x, are redupli- cated with π, 7 and x, respectively. Examples: πεφίληκα is the perfect of φιλέω ; τέθνηκα, I am dead, is the perfect of θνήσκω (the present does not occur in the New Testament). 438. If the verb stem ends with a vowel that vowel is regularly lengthened before the x of the perfect active, just as it is before the o of the future and first aorist. Examples: ἠγάπηκα from ἀγαπάω, πεφίληκα from φιλέω. 439. If the verb stem ends with 7, 6 or θ, the τ, 6 or θ is dropped before the κ of the perfect. Example: ἤλπικα from ἐλπίζω (stem ἐλπίδ-). 180 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 440. Some verbs have a second perfect, which is conju- gated like the first perfect except that there is no x. Examples: γέγραφα from γράφω ; ἀκήκοα from ἀκούω. 441. In general, the student should remember what was sald in §159 about the variety in the formation of the tense systems of the Greek verb. Perfect Middle and Passive 442. The perfect middle and passive indicative of λύω is as follows: Sing. 1. λέλυμαι Plur. 1. λελύμεθα 2. λέλυσαι 2. λέλυσθε 3. λέλυται 3. λέλυνται 443. The perfect middle and passive infinitive of λύω is λελύσθαι. The irregular accent should be noticed. 444. ‘The perfect middle and passive participle of λύω is λελυμένος, ἡ, ov, (declined like a regular adjective of the second and first declension). The irregular accent should be noticed. 445. The forms given above constitute the perfect middle system, which is formed from the fifth of the principal parts, λέλυμαι. 446. The reduplication is the same as in the perfect active. ' 447. In the indicative, the primary middle endings (see §111) are added directly to the stem, without intervening variable vowel. They are not modified at all. So in the infinitive and participle -σθαι and -yevos are added directly to the stem. Yu ce ‘ = ‘ π᾿ P δι "Ἂς τ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 187 448. If the verb stem ends with a vowel, that vowel is regularly lengthened before the endings in the perfect middle and passive, as before the tense suffixes in the future, first aorist, perfect active, and aorist passive. Example: μεμαρτύρημαι from paprupéw. 449. If the verb stem ends with a consonant, various changes occur when the endings of the perfect middle and passive are put on. These changes are best learned by observation in the individual verbs. Example: γέγραμμαι (third person singular γέγραπται) from γράφω. 450. Pluperfect Tense The pluperfect tense is so rare that its forms need not be learned. It is a secondary tense. The pluperfect active forms a part of the perfect system; and the pluperfect mid- dle and passive, of the perfect middle system. Use of the Perfect Tense 451. There is no English tense corresponding to the Greek perfect. The translations I have loosed for λέλυκα, I have loosed for myself for λέλυμαι (middle), and I have been loosed for λέλυμαι (passive) may often serve in the exercises. But they are makeshifts at the best. It has already been observed (see §169) that these same English expressions may often translate the aorist tense rather than the perfect. 452. The Greek perfect tense denotes the present state resultant upon a past action. Examples: - (1) Suppose someone asks an official, ‘“What is your relation to that prisoner?’’, and he replies, “I have released 188 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK him,” the verb in this answer of the official would be λέλυκα. The perfect would express the present state of the official (with reference to the prisoner) resultant upon his past action of releasing. Butif, on the other hand, someone should ask an official, ‘“What is the history of your dealings with that prisoner?” and he should answer, “1 have released the prisoner three times and imprisoned him again three times,”’ the first verb of this answer of the official would be ἔλυσα, not λέλυκα, because there is here no thought of the present state resultant upon the past action. Indeed the act of releasing had no result continuing into the pres- ent. But even if it had a permanent result the verb refer- ring to it would be aorist , not perfect, unless the present result rather than merely the past action were specially in view. Thus even if, after the question, “‘What have you done?” the official said merely, “I have released the prisoner,” and even if as a matter of fact the releasing had a permanent result, still the aorist tense ἔλυσα might very well be used; for the point under consideration might be the history of the official’s dealings with the prisoner and not the official’s present relation to him. The distinction is often a fine one. But the perfect should not be used in the exercises unless we can see some clear reason for deserting the aorist. (2) The perfect passive is often much easier to translate ~ into English than the perfect active. Thus γέγραπται means it ts written (in the Scriptures). Here the English 7¢ is written is not a present tense at all, but reproduces the Greek perfect very well; the meaning is 2¢ stands written. Both English and Greek here refer to a present state resultant upon an act of writing which took place long ago. (3) The perfect passive participle can often be translated neatly by the simple English passive participle. Thus λόγος γεγραμμένος means a written word, ἠγαπημένος means beloved, etc. But the Greek perfect active participle is very i} NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 189 hard to translate. The student should carefully avoid thinking that having loosed is specially connected with the perfect. On the contrary, in the overwhelming majority of cases, having loosed is the literal translation of the aorist, not of the perfect—the participle having merely indicating that the action has taken place prior to the action of the main verb in the sentence. In general, it should be ob- served that the Greek aorist is vastly commoner than the perfect. (4) ἐλήλυθα, the perfect of ἔρχομαι, means I am come, and γέγονα means I am become. It so happens that because of the peculiar nature of the verbs to come and to become in English we have a neat way of translating the Greek perfect of ἔρχομαι and γίνομαι. Of course the student should not think that I am come has anything to do with the passive voice. It is not at all like I am loosed. 453. The conjugation of \vw has now been completed. The student should review it thoroughly as a whole, using the paradigm given in §589. The verb should be learned in columns, strictly in the order given. Thus ‘‘present-active”’ should form one idea in the student’s mind, and under it should be subsumed the various moods. It should be noticed particularly how the various parts of the verb are connected with the several principal parts. 454.

Comparison of Adjectives 456. The comparative degree of adjectives ends some- times in -τερος, a, ov, (declined like a regular adjective of the second and first declension) and sometimes in -ἰων, -ἰων, -ἰον (declined according to the third declension in all three genders). 457. The superlative degree ends in -raros, ἢ, ov, or -ιστος, ἡ, ov, But in the New Testament the superlative is rather rare. 458. A number of adjectives have irregular comparative and superlative forms. These can be learned from the lexi- con as they occur. Example: μικρός, little; ἔλάσσων, less; ἐλάχιστος, least. 459. The declension of μείζων, ov, greater, the compara- tive of μέγας, is as follows: Sing. Plur. M.F. N. M.F. N. μείζων μεῖζον Ν. μείζονες μείζονα μείζονος μείζονος G. μειζόνων μειζόνων μείζονι μείζονι 1). μείζοσι(ν) μείζοσι(ν) μείζονα μεῖζον Α. μείζονας μείζονα NE) Ὁ’ 460. σώφρων, wise, ἄφρων, foolish, ἔλάσσων, less, πλείων, more, κρείσσων, better, etc., are similarly declined. 194 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 461. The shortened form, μείζω, can stand for μείζονα in the accusative singular masculine and feminine and neuter plural nominative and accusative, and the shortened form, μείζους, in the nominative and accusative plural masculine and feminine. 462. Genitive of Comparison and Use of ἤ, than Where English uses than after a comparative word, Greek uses either (1) the genitive of comparison or (2) ἤ followed by the same case as that which stands in the other member of the comparison. Examples: (1) μείζονα τούτων ποιήσει, greater things than these will he do. (2) ἠγάπησαν ot ἄνθρωποι μᾶλλον TO σκότος ἢ TO φῶς, men loved darkness more than light. Here φῶς is accusative. The meaning is men loved darkness more than they loved light. Adverbs 463. Many adverbs are formed from adjectives by sub- stituting s for v at the end of the genitive plural masculine and neuter. Example: καλός, good; genitive plural, καλῶν ; adverb, καλῶς, well. 464. The comparative degree of adverbs is like the accusative singular neuter of the comparative degree of the corresponding adjective; and the superlative degree of the adverb is like the accusative plural neuter of the superlative degree of the corresponding adjective. 405. Many adverbs, however, are of diverse forms which must be learned by observation. 466. The Genitive with Adverbs of Place Adverbs of place take the genitive. Example: ἔξω, outside; ἔξω τῆς πόλεως, outside of the city; ἐγγὺς THs πόλεως, near the city. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 195 467. Genitive of Time Within Which The genitive is occasionally used to express time within which. Example: παρέλαβε τὸ παιδίον καὶ τὴν μητέρα αὐτοῦ νυκτός, he took the young child and His mother by night. 468. Genitive of the Articular Infinitive Expressing Purpose The genitive of the articular infinitive, without any prepo- sition, is sometimes used to express purpose. Example: ἦλθεν πρὸς τὸν προφήτην τοῦ βαπτισθῆναι ὑπ᾽ αὐτοῦ, he came to the prophet in order to be baptized by him. It will be remembered that for the most part the artic- ular infinitive is used in the same constructions as those in which an ordinary noun with the article can be used. This use of the genitive to express purpose, however, would not be possible for an ordinary noun. 469. The Dative of Respect The dative is used to indicate the respect in which any- thing exists or is true. Example: γινωσκόμενος τῷ προσώπῳ, being known by face (i. 6. being known so far as the face 18 concerned); καθαρὸς TH καρδίᾳ, pure in heart (1. 6. pure so far as the heart 18 concerned); ἀνὴρ ὀνόματι ᾿Ιάκωβος, a man by name James (i.e. a man who 15 James so far as the name ts concerned). 470. Accusative of Specification The accusative of specification is very much the same in meaning as the dative of respect, but is less frequently used. Example: τὸν ἀριθμὸν ws πεντακισχίλιοι, about five thousand in number. eee = 196 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK The Dative of Time 471. The dative is sometimes used to express tame when. Example: ἐθεράπευσε τῷ σαββάτῳ, he healed on the sab- bath. 472. Usually, however, time when is expressed by prepositional phrases. So on the sabbath could be ἐν τῷ σαββάτῳ. Possessive Adjectives 473. The possessive adjectives ἐμός, my, σός, thy, ἡμέτερος, OUT, ὑμέτερος, your, are sometimes used instead of the genitive case of the personal pronouns when empha- sis is desired. These possessive adjectives are declined like regular adjectives of the second and first declension. They can stand in the attributive position with the article. Examples: ὁ ἐμὸς λόγος, the belonging-to-me word (i.e., my word); ἡ χαρὰ ἡ ἐμή, my joy; τὸ θέλημα τὸ ἐμόν, my will; τὰ ἐμὰ πάντα σά ἐστιν, all the belonging-to-me things are thine (i.e., all my things are thine); ὁ ἡμέτερος λόγος, our word; ὁ ὑμέτερος λόγος, your word. 474. This usage is comparatively infrequent. The com- mon way of saying my word is not ὁ ἐμὸς λόγος or ὁ λόγος ὁ ἐμός, but ὁ λόγος μου (the word of me). un Used as a Conjunction 475. Words denoting fear are followed by μή, lest, with the subjunctive. μή is here not an adverb, as is the case when it means not, but a conjunction. Example: φοβοῦμαι μὴ ἔλθῃ, 1 fear lest he come. 476. Negative clauses of purpose may also be introduced by the simple μή instead of by ἵνα μή. Example: τοῦτο ποιεῖτε μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς κρίσιν, do this lest you come into judgment. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 197 477. ἵνα with the Subjunctive in Various Uses In addition to the use by which it expresses purpose, iva with the subjunctive is very frequently used after words of exhorting, wishing, striving, and in various ways that are not easily classified. Examples: (1) εἰπὲ τῷ λίθῳ τούτῳ ἵνα γένηται ἄρτος, say to this stone that rt become bread. (2) αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἐντολὴ ἡ ἐμὴ ἵνα ἀγαπᾶτε ἀλλήλους, this 18 my command- ment, that you should love one another. Questions Expecting a Negative Answer 478. Questions expecting a negative answer are ex- pressed by μή with the indicative. 479. This rule constitutes an important exception to the general rule for the use of οὐ and μή (see 8256). Questions expecting a positive answer have ov with the indicative. Example: μὴ ἰσχυρότεροι αὐτοῦ ἐσμεν; are we stronger than he? The answer expected is ‘‘No, of course not.” Compare οὐκ ἰσχυρότεροί, ἐσμεν αὐτοῦ; are we not stronger than he? Here the answer expected is “Yes, certainly we are.” 480.

The verbs which have been studied so far, with the exception of the irregular verb εἰμί, all belong to the same conjugation. They have various ways of forming their principal parts, but the endings that are appended to the principal parts all belong to the same type. There is in Greek only one other conjugation. It is called the μι conju- gation (to distinguish it from the w conjugation which has been studied thus far), because its first person singular present active indicative ends in μι. 483. Verbsin μι differ from verbs in w only in the present and second aorist systems. 484. The principal parts of the μι verb, δίδωμι, I give, are as follows: δίδωμι, δώσω, ἔδωκα, δέδωκα, δέδομαι, ἐδόθην. 485. The stem of δίδωμι is δο--. If it were an w verb, its first form would be δόω. 486. The future δώσω is entirely regular, the final o of the stem being lengthened before the o of the future exactly as in the case (for example) of δηλόω. From δώσω all of the future active and middle is formed, in ex- actly the same way as the corresponding forms of λύω. 487. The first aorist ἔδωκα is quite regularly formed except that x stands instead of σ. 488. The perfect active δέδωκα is entirely regular. From δέδωκα all of the perfect active is quite regularly formed. 489. The perfect middle δέδομαι is quite regular ex- cept that the final vowel of the stem is not lengthened before 202 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK ’ the personal endings (see 8448). From δέδομαι all of the perfect middle and passive is quite regularly formed. 490. The aorist passive ἐδόθην is quite regular, ex- cept that the final vowel of the stem is not lengthened be- fore the tense suffix -fe. From ἐδόθην all of the aorist passive and future passive is quite regularly formed. The Present System of δίδωμι 491. The sign of the present system of δίδωμι is the reduplication (of a different form from that in the perfect), which is prefixed to the stem. 492. The present active indicative of δίδωμι is as fol- lows: Sing. Plur. 1. δίδωμι, 1 give. 1. δίδομεν, we give. 2. δίδως, thou givest. 2. δίδοτε, ye give. 3. δίδωσι(ν), he gives. 3. διδόασι(ν), they give. 493. The final vowel of the stem (the stem with the reduplication being διδο-) is lengthened in the singular number, but not in the plural. 494. The personal endings are added directly to the stem, without any variable vowel. 495. The personal endings are -μι, -s, ττι, -μεν, -TE, -ασι. 496. ‘The present active subjunctive is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. διδῶ 1. διδῶμεν 2. διδῷς 2. διδῶτε 3. διδῷ 3. διδῶσι(ν) NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 203 497. There has been contraction here, as is shown by the accent. The personal endings are the same as in w verbs. 498. The present active imperative is as follows: Sing. Plur. 2. δίδου, give (thou). 2. δίδοτε, give (ye). 3. διδότω, let him give. 3. διδότωσαν, let them give. 499. The present active infinitive is διδόναι, to give. The irregular accent should be noticed. 500. The present active participle is διδούς, διδοῦσα, διδόν, gwing. 501. The genitive singular is διδόντος, διδούσης, διδόν- tos. The masculine and neuter are declined regu- larly according to the third declension and the feminine regularly according to the first declension. The dative plural masculine and neuter is διδοῦσι(ν). 502. The accent is irregular in the nominative, not being recessive. Thereafter it follows the general noun rule, except in the genitive plural feminine, διδουσῶν, where the special rule for nouns of the first declension is followed (see §§14, 51). 503. The imperfect active indicative is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἐδίδουν, I was giving. 1. ἐδίδομεν, we were giving. 2. ἐδίδους, thou wast giwing. 2. ἐδίδοτε, ye were giving. 3. ἐδίδου, he was giving. 3. ἐδίδοσαν, they were giving. 504. The characteristic reduplication, δι-, of the pres- ent of course appears here, since the imperfect is always a part of the present system. The augment is regular. The final vowel of the stem is lengthened in the singular, as in 204 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK the present. But in the imperfect it is lengthened to ov instead of tow. The same secondary endings appear as in the w conjugation, except that the alternative ending -cav appears instead of -v in the third person plural. (See §127). 505. The present and imperfect middle and passive of δίδωμι may be found in §596. Only a few of these forms occur in the New Testament. They can easily be recognized as they occur. Aorist Active of δίδωμι 506. The aorist active of δίδωμι is peculiar in that it is first aorist in the indicative and second aorist in the other moods. 507. The aorist active indicative is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. ἔδωκα, I gave. 1. ἐδώκαμεν, we gave. 2. ἔδωκας, thou gavest. 2. ἐδώκατε, ye gave. 3. ἔδωκε(ν), he gave. 3. ἔδωκαν, they gave. 508. It will be observed that the conjugation is exactly like that of ἔλυσα, the first aorist active of Avw. But the tense suffix is x instead of o. See §$§171-177. 509. The aorist active subjunctive is as follows: Sing. Plur. 1. 60 1. δῶμεν 2. δῷς 2. δῶτε 3. δῷ 3. δῶσι(ν) 510. The conjugation is exactly like the present active subjunctive. But the second aorist has the mere verb stem, whereas the present prefixes the reduplication 6:-. | | Ἷ NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 205 511. The aorist active imperative is as follows: Sing. Plur. 2. δός, give (thou). 2. dore, give (ye). 3. δότω, let him give. 3. δότωσαν, let them give. 512. These forms are like the present (without the re- duplication), except for δός in the second person singular. 513. The aorist active infinitive is δοῦναι, to give. 514. The aorist active participle is δούς, δοῦσα, δόν, having given. It is declined like the present participle διδούς. 515. The aorist middle of δίδωμι occurs only a very few times in the New Testament. The forms can easily be understood with the aid of a lexicon. The Second Aorist of γινώσκω 516. γινώσκω, I know, isanw verb. But it has a sec- ond aorist active of the μὲ form. The stem is yvo- which is nearly everywhere lengthened to γνω-. 517. Learn the conjugation in §601. The Article before μέν and δέ. 518. Before μέν or δέ the article is often used as a pronoun meaning he, she, τί, they. Examples: (1) τοῦτο ἠρώτησαν αὐτόν. ὁ δὲ ἀπεκρίθη αὐτοῖς, this they asked him. And he answered them. (2) ἦλθον πρὸς αὐτοὺς αἰτῶν τι παρ᾽ αὐτῶν: οἱ δὲ ἐποίησαν οὐδέν, I came to them asking something from them. But they did nothing. 519. It should be observed very carefully that this usage is quite different from all the uses of the article which have been studied heretofore. For example, in the phrase oi ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ, those in the house, it would be a great mistake 206 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK to think that the article is used as a pronoun meaning those. On the contrary, the English idiom those in the house (in which those is not really a demonstrative pronoun at all) is expressed in Greek by saying the 7n-the-house people. In this Greek phrase, of is just as much an ordinary article as in the phrase oi ἀγαθοί, the good people, ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ being © treated as an adjective like ἀγαθός. Or, to take another example, it would be a great mistake to suppose that in the phrase ὁ λύων, he who looses, the article is used as a pronoun meaning he. On the contrary the article is here just as much an article as in the phrase ὁ ἀγαθός, the good man. But before δέ the article can really be used as a pro- noun. In ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, but he sazd, there is no adjective or adjective expression for 6 to go with. 520. The Aorist Participle Denoting the Same Act as the Leading Verb The aorist participle is sometimes used to denote the same act as the leading verb. Examples: (1) ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς, Jesus said by way of answer, or Jesus answered and said. In §§233, 254 it was said that the present participle denotes action con- temporary with the action of the leading verb and the aorist participle denotes action prior to the action of the leading verb. That rule needed to be impressed firmly upon the mind before the exceptions to it could be considered. But as a matter of fact the rule does not completely represent the facts. Properly speaking the tenses in the participle do not have to do with time, and their funda- mental, non-temporal character appears in the usage now under discussion. In ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, the “answering” and the “‘saying”’ represent exactly the same act, and the participle simply defines more closely the action denoted by εἶπεν. The phrase does not, however, mean while he NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 207 was answering he said. That would rather be ἀποκρινόμενος εἶπεν. It is recommended that the free translation, he answered and said, be adopted invariably for the phrase ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, which is exceedingly common in the Gospels. And it is exceedingly important that this idiom should not be allowed to obscure the fact that in the majority of cases the aorist participle denotes action prior to the time of the leading verb. The student should care- fully avoid any confusion between the present and the aorist participle. (2) ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν, and he answered and said (with a slight emphasis on he). Of course ἀποκριθείς. might here be taken as the substantive participle with 6, and the sentence might mean and the having-answered one said, or and the one who had answered said. But in a very great many places where these words occur in the gospels, the article is to be taken as a pronoun and the ἀποκριθείς is joined only loosely to it, in the manner indicated in the translation above. 521. First Aorist Endings on Second Aorist Stems Very frequently, in the New Testament, first aorist end- ings instead of second aorist endings are used on second aor- ist stems. Examples: εἶπαν instead of εἶπον (third person plural), εἰπόν instead of εἰπέ (imperative). This usage is much more common in some parts of the aorist than in others. εἶπον in the indicative has almost exclusively first aorist forms. See §186, footnote. 522.

The woman besought the apostle that he might give her something. But he! answered her nothing. 2. Those who had killed the women said that they had known the king. But he answered and said that he was not will- ing to give them what they asked. 3. If we believe on Him who loved us and gave Himself in behalf of us, we shall have eternal life instead of death. 4. While the apostle was giving to the children the things which they had asked, the women were giving gifts to us. 5. The Lord delivered over the gospel to the apostles, and they delivered it over to the Gentiles. 6. What shall we give back to Him who gave Himself in behalf of us. 7. Behold He gives us eternal life. Let us therefore do His will. 8. What shall anyone give instead of his life? 9. Whatever we give to Him will not be enough. 10.

NEW TESTAMENT GREEK Vocabulary καθώς, adv., just as. καιρός, ὁ, atime, a fixed time, an appointed time. μνημεῖον, τό, a tomb. μόνον, adv., only. πῦρ, πυρός, τό, a fire. σημεῖον, τό, a Sign. στόμα, στόματος, τό, a mouth. τίθημι, I place, I put; τίθημι τὴν ψυχήν, I lay down my life. ὑπάγω, I go away. χαίρω, I rejoice (ἐχάρην, 2nd aor. pass., I rejoiced). χρόνος, ὃ, time (especially a period of time, as distin- guished from καιρός, a defi- | nite or appointed time). 4 ὧδε, adv., hither, here. ἢ ὥσπερ, adv., just as. 3 ὥστε, COn]., so that. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 211 524. The principal parts of the μὲ verb τίθημι, 1 place, I put, are as follows: τίθημι, θήσω, ἔθηκα, τέθεικα, τέθειμαι, ἐτέθην. 525. Thestem is θε-. The present system is redupli- cated after the same manner as δίδωμι. The future is regular. The first aorist is regular except that (like δίδωμι) it has x instead of σι The perfect active and the per- fect middle are regular except that θε- is lengthened to θει- instead of to @y-. The aorist passive is regular except that (1) the final vowel of the stem is not length- ened, and (2) the stem θε- is changed to τε- to avoid having two 6’s come in successive syllables. 526. Learn the active voice of the present system of τίθημι in §598. 527. The treatment of the stem and of the endings in the present system is very much the same as in the case cf δίδωμι. The declension of the participle τιθείς is like that of λυθείς, the aorist passive participle of λύω. 528. Learn the active voice of the aorist system of τίθημι in §599. 529. Like δίδωμι, τίθημι has a first aorist active in the indicative and a second aorist active in the other moods. The second aorist participle θείς is declined like the pres- ent participle τιθείς. 530. The present middle and aorist middle forms of τίθημι can easily be recognized when they occur, if it be remembered that the second aorist has the mere verb stem θε-, whereas the present has the stem τιθε-. Thus if a form ἀνεθέμην be encountered, the student should see that 212 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK ἀν- is plainly the preposition dva-, ε is the augment, Oe is the stem of τίθημι, and -μην is the secondary ending in the first person singular middle. Therefore, the form is second aorist middle indicative, first person singular. On the other hand, ἐτίθεντο belongs to the present system because it has the τι- which is the sign of the present system; it is imperfect, not: present, because it has the augment and a secondary ending. It is evidently imperfect middle or passive indicative, third person plural. The Conjugation of ἀφίημι 531. ἀφίημι, I let go, I permit, I leave, I forgive, is a compound verb composed of the preposition ἀπό (ἀφ᾽ before the rough breathing) and the μὲ verb inw. The stem of ἵημι 15 ἑ-. 532. The forms can usually be recognized if it be remem- bered that the i- before the stem ἑ- is the sign of the present system, and that the short forms with €- alone are second aorist. Thus ἀφείς is evidently second aorist participle (els coming from the stem €- as θείς from the stem 6e-). In the indicative there is a first aorist active in x instead of σ, aS is the case with δίδωμι and τίθημι. The irregular forms of ἀφίημι can be found in the lexicons and reference grammars. 533. Conjugation of δείκνυμι and ἀπόλλυμι These two verbs have some μὲ forms in the present sys- tem. The μὲ forms can be recognized from the fact that they add the personal ending directly to the present stem. The present stem ends in v. Both δείκνυμι and ἀπόλλυμι are also sometimes conjugated like w verbs even in the present system. See the vocabulary. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 218 Accusative and Infinitive after ὥστε 534. ὥστε, so that, expressing result, is sometimes fol- lowed by the accusative and infinitive. Example: ἐθεράπευσεν αὐτοὺς" ὥστε τὸν ὄχλον θαυμάσαι....., he healed them; so that the crowd marvelled..... 535. The accent of ὥστε apparently violates the general rules of accent. But originally the τε was an enclitic separate from the ὡς. So also ὥσπερ and οὔτε (for the latter see vocabulary in Lesson XX XIII). 536. The Subjunctive with ἕως ἄν The conjunction ἕως, when it means until, takes the sub- junctive with ἄν, except when the verb which it introduces refers to an actual occurrence in past time. The ἄν is some- times omitted. When éws means while, it takes the indica- tive. The phrase ἕως οὗ in which ἕως is a preposition and ov the genitive singular neuter of the relative pronoun, has the same meaning as ἕως (conjunction) alone. Examples: (1) μείνατε ἕως ἂν ἔλθω, remain until I come. (2) ἔμεινεν ἕως οὗ ἦλθον, he remained until I came (actual occurrence in past time). 537.

Uses of γίνομαι. 538. | Vocabulary 9 f ἀνίστημι, transitive, 1 cause to rise, in the present, fut., and Ist aor. act.; intran- sitive, I stand up, I arise, in the 2nd aor. and perf. act., and in the middle. δοκέω, I seem, I think. δύναμαι, dep. (the present system conjugated like the middle of torn), 1 am able. δύναμις, δυνάμεως, ἡ, power, a miracle. ἔβην, 2nd aor. (of the μι form) of βαίνω (conju- gated like the 2nd aor. of ἵστημι). ἕτερος, a, ον, another (some- times, but not always, im- plies difference of kind, whereas ἄλλος often de- notes mere numerical dis- tinction). ἵστημι, transitive, 1 cause to stand, in the pres., fut. and 1st aor. act.; intransitive, I stand, in the perf. (which has the sense of a present = I stand) and in the 2nd aor. κάθημαι, dep. of the we form, I sit (pres. part καθήμενος, sitting). οἶδα, 2nd perf. used as pres., I know. ὅλος, ἡ, ov, adj., whole, all. ὅμοιος, a, ov, adj., like, sem- ilar (with the dative of that to which anything is similar). οὔτε, ana not, nor (οὔτε. ... οὔτε, neither.... nor). παραγίνομαι, 1 become near, I arrive, I come (rapa- γίνομαι eis τὴν πόλιν, 1 arrive τη the city). φανερόω, 1 make manifest, I manifest. φημί, 1 say (a μι verb with stem da-. Much less com- mon than λέγω). ws, adv. and conj., as, when (some of its other uses have already been studied). NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 9717 539. The principal parts of the μὲ verb ἵστημι, I cause to stand, are as follows: ἵστημι, στήσω, ἔστησα, ἕστηκα, ἕσταμαι, ἐστάθην, 2nd aor. act. ἔστην. 540. The stem is ora-. The present system is redupli- cated by the prefixing of i-. The future and first aorist sys- tems are perfectly regular, the στα- of the stem being length- ened to στη- before the o of the tense suffixes. The perfect active is regular except that the e- of the reduplication has the rough breathing. The perfect middle and passive retains the στα- of the stem unchanged instead of lengthening its vowel. The aorist passive also retains the ora-, but other- wise is regular. 541. Learn the active voice of the present system of ἵστημι in §600. 542. The treatment of the stem and of the endings in the present system is very much the same as in the case of δίδωμι and τίθημι. The declension of the participle ἱστάς is like that of λύσας, the aorist active participle of λύω, except for the accent. 543. Learn the middle and passive forms of the present system of ἵστημι in §600. It will be noticed that the end- ings are joined directly to the reduplicated stem ἱστα-; except in the subjunctive mood. 544. ἵστημι differs from δίδωμι and τίθημι in that it has a complete second aorist active as well as a complete first aorist active. The first aorist means I caused to stand (transitive), and the second aorist means 1 stood (intransi- tive). 545. Learn the second aorist active of torn in §601. 218 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 546. It will be observed that the conjugation is very much like that of the aorist passive of λύω. The participle στάς is declined like the present participle tords. 547. A second aorist middle of ἵστημι does not occur. 548. In addition to the first perfect active participle, ἑστηκώς, ἵστημι has a second perfect participle ἑστώς, ἑστῶσα, ἑστός, gen. ἑστῶτος, etc. Both ἑστηκώς and ἑστώς mean standing. 549. Learn the conjugation of οἶδα, 1 know (a second perfect used as a present, the pluperfect, ἤδειν, being used as an imperfect) in $603. 550. The Optative Mood In the classical period, the Greek language had another mood, the optative, in addition to those which we have studied. In New Testament Greek, however, most of the classical uses of the optative have praetically disappeared. The optative is still retained to express a wish. ‘Thus μὴ γένοιτο (γένοιτο being the second aorist optative, third person singular, of γίνομαι) means may it not take place, God forbid. The few other optative forms in the New Tes- tament can be noted when they occur. 551. Conditions Contrary to Fact Conditions contrary to fact are expressed by the secon- dary tenses of the indicative in both protasis and apodosis. The protasis is introduced by ei, and the apodosis has the particle ἄν, which, however, is sometimes omitted. Example: κύριε, εἰ ἧς ὧδε, οὐκ ἂν ἀπέθανεν ὁ ἀδελφός μου, Lord, af thou hadst been here, my brother. would not have died. NEW TESTAMENT GREEK 219 Uses of γίνομαι 552. Thus far, in the exercises, it has usually been pos- sible to translate γίνομαι by the English word become. But very often, in the New Testament, such a translation isimpossible. The English word become requires a predicate nominative, but in very many cases γίνομαι has no predicate nominative. Insuch cases it means happen, come into being, come to pass, appear, arise, be made. Sometimes it can be translated by the words come or be. Examples: (1) ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις ἔγένετο ἱερεύς τις, in those days there was (appeared in history) a certain priest. (2) πάντα δι᾽’ αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο, all things came into being (or were made) through him. (8) εἶδεν τὰ γενόμενα, he saw the things that had happened. (4) φωνὴ ἐγένετο ἐκ τῶν οὐρανῶν, a voice came out of the heavens. [But it must not be supposed that γίνομαι is a verb of motion.| 553. The usage of καὶ ἐγένετο and ἐγένετο δέ, Meaning and it \came to pass, calls for special comment. There are three forms of this usage, which may be illustrated as follows.! (1) καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτὸν ἐλθεῖν, and it came to pass that he came. Here the accusative and infinitive depend on éyé- vero in a way that is at least after the analogy of ordinary Greek usage. (2) καὶ ἐγένετο καὶ ἦλθεν, and rt came to pass and he came. ‘The literal English translation is here intolerable, and the Greek also is not in accordance with the ordinary usage of the Greek language, but is derived from a Hebrew idiom. (3) καὶ ἐγένετο ἦλθεν, and it came to pass he came. This also is not an ordinary Greek usage, ἦλθεν, being left 1 This method of illustration is taken, in essentials, from J. H. Moul- ton, Grammar of New Testament Greek, Vol. I, ‘““Prolegomena,” 2nd | Edition, 1906, p. 16. 220 NEW TESTAMENT GREEK without a construction. Both (2) and (8), as well as (1) may be translated freely and zt came to pass that he came. 554.
