Philo, On the Creation, §33
μετὰ δὲ τὴν τοῦ νοητοῦ φωτὸς ἀνάλαμψιν, ὃ πρὸ ἡλίου γέγονεν, ὑπεχώρει τὸ ἀντίπαλον σκότος, διατειχίζοντος ἀπʼ ἀλλήλων αὐτὰ καὶ διιστάντος θεοῦ τοῦ τὰς ἐναντιότητας εὖ εἰδότος καὶ τὴν ἐκ φύσεως αὐτῶν διαμάχην ἵνʼ οὖν μὴ αἰεὶ συμφερόμεναι στασιάζωσι καὶ πόλεμος ἀντʼ εἰρήνης ἐπικρατῇ τὴν ἀκοσμίαν ἐν κ...

Philo, On Creation, II.8: αὐτὸ
Μωυσῆς δὲ καὶ φιλοσοφίας ἐπʼ αὐτὴν φθάσας ἀκρότητα καὶ χρησμοῖς τὰ πολλὰ καὶ συνεκτικώτατα τῶν τῆς φύσεως ἀναδιδαχθεὶς ἔγνω δή, ὅτι ἀναγκαιότατόν ἐστιν ἐν τοῖς οὖσι τὸ μὲν εἶναι δραστήριον αἴτιον, τὸ δὲ παθητόν, καὶ ὅτι τὸ μὲν δραστήριον ὁ τῶν ὅλων νοῦς ἐστιν εἱλικρινέστατος καὶ ἀκραιφνέστατος, κρε...

Re: John Chrysostom, Commentary on Rom. 1:3
LOL. No, sir. I do not read these tomes in one sitting, especially because my current knowledge of Greek doesn't allow it. I always appreciate your help. Thank you.

Aristotle, Categories, Section 1
I have a general understanding of Aristotle's philosophy, but I want to have a precise understanding of his Greek. So, here's the first line of Categories. Ὁμώνυμα λέγεται ὧν ὄνομα μόνον κοινόν, ὁ δὲ κατὰ τοὔνομα λόγος τῆς οὐσίας ἕτερος... λέγεται - "is called" Ὁμώνυμα = "homonyms&quo...

Re: Cyril of Jerusalem, Προκατήχησις, §3: λευχειμονοῦν
Can someone parse the word λευχειμονοῦν in the following passage from Cyril of Jerusalem's Προκατήχησις: Ἔδει δὲ αὐτὸν ἰδόντα τὸ λευχειμονοῦν πάντων, καὶ αὐτὸν ἀναλαβέσθαι τοιοῦτον ἔνδυμα. I'm assuming it's a neuter-gendered, singular number participle, but what tense, I am not certain. Again, I ca...
