Re: Introduction - John M Tait
Hi - haven't been on here for a while, so missed your post. At Aberdeen in my day, 'faculty' meant the overall group of departments - e.g. there were the Science, Arts, Law and Divinity faculties, each of which had different departments - e.g. English, French in the Arts faculty - and a professor me...

Re: Introduction - John M Tait

Parsing of ἐμεγάλυνεν in Lk 1:58
Hello. I've just bought a copy of the Guided Annotating edition of the Tyndale Greek New Testament. In addition to space for notes, this has a glossary with parsing at the foot of each page, and I was puzzled to find the following note on the form ἐμεγάλυνεν in Lk 1:58 μεγαλύνω - vb 3rd sg, aor act ...
