Could someone tell me whether there's any native Greek reason for the
construction that appears (among other places) in Gen 32:30:
hINA TI TOUTO ERWTAiS TO ONOMA MOU
In other words, is this just a case of the translator rendering more or less
word-for-word and thereby producing a construction that would never occur in
Greek otherwise? Or can the demonstrative actually be understood to fit in
terms of normal Greek grammar?
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
