Greetings There is an established rule in Greek grammar called the Granville Sharp rule. It says, "When the copulative 'kai' connects two nouns of the same case, if the article 'ho' or any of its cases precedes the first of the said nouns or participles, and is not repeated before the second noun or participle, the latter always relates to the same person that is expressed or described by the first noun or participle; i.e., it denotes a farther description of the first-named person." (Dana and Mantey's, "A Manual Grammar of the Greek New Testament," p. 147.) This is exactly the case in Tit. 2:13, 2 Pet. 1:1, and 2 Pet. 1:11, all of which call Jesus God. The actual Greek text for this phrase reads: "of the Great God and Saviour Jesus Christ." I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
