Bible Note: Hi Sid and a big welcome aboard, It’s great to have a Bible expositor on the forum and one with the ability of textual criticism and the mastery of the original languages. Where did you get your degrees in Hebrew and Greek and have you had much experience in the Attica Greek? You sure will be helpful in clearing up some of the more difficult Koine Greek etymology that we run into now and then! Be sure and fill out your Personal profile and contact me on my e-mail that's on my profile if you would. Ancient Hebrew and Greek idioms blow my mind, CDBJ |
