Expertise in Greek

This may be a very old and ignorant and many-times answered question, and is not necessarily directly connected to this particular topic, but here it goes: When I read about discussions re Porter, Campbell, Wallace, or [insert name here, this is not aimed at any particular person but more at a milie...

Re: Paragraph breaks THGNT Mark 10:32

I also got the black faux leather version. I have to say that it is the nicest looking GNT I've seen. Even the black box it comes in is really well done. Two big thumbs up. The page layout is excellent and uncluttered. The paragraph break format in my view really adds to the reading experience. Make...

Re: Proverbs as an introduction to LXX

I found Ruth and Jonah to be nice intros. I'm sure Proverbs works fine, too.

Re: Errors In Revelation?

Two questions, as I am having a hard time following the discussion. 1. Is there a general treatment of the grammatical phenomena under discussion here (fem noun/masc modifier, at least as it appears to me) in Smyth or other similar standard grammar? I would like to look it up and educate myself. 2. ...

Re: What version did Jesus use?

Another interesting St. John Chrysostom text, from his Homilies on St. Matthew: καὶ λέγει· Ἠλὶ, Ἠλὶ, λιμὰ σαβαχθανὶ, ἵνα μέχρις ἐσχάτης ἀναπνοῆς ἴδωσιν ὅτι τιμᾷ τὸν Πατέρα, καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ἀντίθεος. Διὸ καὶ προφητικὴν ἀφῆκέ τινα φωνὴν, μέχρις ἐσχά- της ὥρας μαρτυρῶν τῇ Παλαιᾷ· καὶ οὐχ ἁπλῶς προ- (15) ...

Re: Linux GNT Lemma Search

Thanks everybody. I was able to use Xiphos off of crosswire to do lemma searches from Strongs numbers. A little clunky, but it works. For some reason, I had trouble installing BibleTime. A really nice app would be the STEP bible app from Tyndale house. It is downloadable (windows and mac), and if yo...

Re: Linux GNT Lemma Search

Thanks, Ken, for the suggestion. What I'm looking for is a something with a graphical interface that I can type the lemma into, then it spits out the verse references, which then I can click on the read the verses. The reason I want this is that as I read the greek fathers, I run into words for whic...

Linux GNT Lemma Search

I'm looking for freeware that contains the GNT with a lemma search function. I need it for offline use. I'm a linux (ubuntu) user. I really don't care what GNT it uses (Byz, UBS, TR, etc.). I've had trouble finding anything, which is strange because I would be shocked if it doesn't exist. I feel lik...

Completion of Milestone: St. John Chrysostom

I thought I would share a big “Greek Milestone” for me. In late 2015, I set out to read all of St. John Chrysostom’s Homilies on the Epistles of St. Paul (Field Volumes 1-7). Fourteen months later --- Just got done today. On seeing the last page (page 2964 in total), I felt a little like Xenophon’s ...
