Subject: Greek genitive cases and the word "of" |
Bible Note: Hello on a Frosty Morn in Arkansas, Tim: This post, like so many others of yours, does a fine service to the forum in helping us to understand the underlying languages of Scripture that lie behind choices of English grammar and vocabulary that face the translators in their difficult and exacting task of bringing us an English text that is both accurate and clear..... Whew! All these different kinds of genitives. And to think that there was a time when I thought there was only one genitive....as in Genitive, Exodus, Numbers, Deut-astronomy, etc. --Hank |
