To All B-Greekers,
When we look at the tenses English grammar we find six. They are,Past tense,
Present tense, Future tense, Past Perfect tense, Present Perfect tense and
Future Perfect tense. We know in English grammar that a Past Perfect action
takes place before all other past actions within a sentence. We also know
that in English grammar, that the Future Perfect tense takes place before all
other Future tenses. The question is, what do we know about NT Greek grammar
in this respect of sequencing? Does a Pluperfect action tense take place
before all other Past action tenses? Does a Future Perfect action in NT Greek
grammar take place before all other merely Future tenses? Are there Past
tenses in NT Greek that sequence each other? I have a whole lot of Greek
grammar books but not a whole lot of answers. Can anybody help me?
