him when he teaches ...<<

Sarah, I've been on the receiving end of that deal, and it taught me always
to double check the Greek text, even when I am absolutely sure of the form.

It also reminds me of a student I had my first year teaching at TAA.  Now,
I had a fairly good amount of teaching experience when I started here, at
the high school, college and graduate  levels.  I was reading a particular
text with this student, and noted something in the text, which I mentally
marked "She won't ask me about this."  The first thing she asked was about
that!  It reminded me to be well prepared and never underestimate your
students.  That student, BTW, is now a classics major...

Cheerfully...

Barry
