Adverbs

I find not many grammars cover adverbs. Young talks about them modifying verbs, adjectives, or adverbs and that the adverb generally precedes the word it modifies. My question is, if the adverb is adjacent to and precedes a verb, adjective, or adverb, would the word it precedes always be the word th...

Grammar on Verbs

What is the best book that goes in depth on verbs and tenses outside the indicative and also the significance.

I have found most books don’t go to far in depth.

Thanks,

Article with Events

Articles that don't match adjacent word

What is the significance when an article is followed by another noun that does not match in case, number and gender? Is there a specific grammar rule for this?

Can verbs have a case?

In Basics of Biblical Greek, Dr. Mounce said "verbs do not have case or gender"

For instance in 1 Thessalonians 1:10 τὸν ῥυόμενον, wouldn't ῥυόμενον be considered being in the Accusative case based on τὸν?

Thanks for the help!

definite article

In Koine is the definite article use ever indefinite? Ie. If they were just using it as a function marker.

A follow up to that. If an article is uses with a noun regarding an event, would that always be considered a one time event?

Thanks!

Re: indeclinable names

Genesis 11:31
καὶ ἔλαβεν Θαρα τὸν Αβραμ υἱὸν αὐτοῦ...

Ie. would Θαρα be considered Accusative?

Thanks!
