All exams are finished! Giddy up. This is really a post reminding me to do some holiday reading. Currently, I like Con Campbell because of his jazz. I’m psyching myself up to love him for his contribution to Biblical Greek grammar!
Con has a new book out – he guest blogged about it on the Zondervan Academic blog. It’s on Verbal Aspect. I’m hoping that reading the 5 posts below will be a good primer.
- Verbal aspect: what is it, and why does it matter?
- Verbal Aspect: what it is and what it isn’t
- Verbal aspect and the aorist indicative
- Verbal aspect and the present indicative
- Verbal aspect and exegesis
p.s. – I passed greek this year!!
Just remember that Verbal Aspect is all about the parade. If that doesn’t make sense, take heart. Most of us are still trying to understand it a year later…
yeah – i gather no-one really understood it!!
i think i get the parade bit from the little we did on it this year. hopefully con’s book will make it a bit clearer.
