Re: Luke 4:30 -- ἐπορεύετο
Luke 4:30: " αὐτὸς δὲ διελθὼν διὰ μέσου αὐτῶν ἐπορεύετο." "but he passed through their midst and went on his way. " NASB, 2020 I know that an imperfect means something not finished yet or continuing or repeating. I was wondering if ἐπορεύετο is a continual "continued on his...

Re: Hebraic/Hebrew Genitive
It's because I filter this discussion two ways,
Greek development: classical vs Hellenistic including secular vs. Jewish
and
Greek vs. Hebrew,
which was the start of the thread.

Re: Hebraic/Hebrew Genitive
It's a genitive, but it is not a noun that serves in place of a simple adjective.Τοιοῦτο πολλῶν ἐστιν ἦθος ἀνθρώπων... "Such is the custom of many men..."
Τhat could have been ἦθος ἀνθρώπων = ἀνθρώπινον ἦθος,
but not really *πολι-ἀνθρώπινον ἦθος

Re: Hebraic/Hebrew Genitive
qal vaHomer with Hebrew. Few NT scholars, old or new, are adequately trained in Hebrew. [I define "adequate" as able to comfortably read an article on Qumran or Mishnaic Hebrew in Hebrew.]I always take these now with a grain of salt.

Re: Luke 2:48 - Byzantine word order
Actually, both questions are needed. The first type focuses on the most salient part of a sentence. If, in addition, that most salient part has some kind of special marking in a language it would be called a Focal structure in FG. [NB: not all sentences will have a marked focus structure although al...

Re: Luke 2:48 - Byzantine word order
Your question is good but stops short:I generally ask questions about the text to discover these things.
πρὸς τίνα εἶπεν τὴν παραβολὴν;
πρὸς αὐτοὺς τὴν παραβολὴν εἶπεν.
Διὰ τί ἐγράφη τὸ πρὸς αυτοὺς τὴν παραβολὴν εἶπεν
αντὶ τοῦ πρὸς αυτοὺς εἶπεν τὴν παραβολὴν;

Re: Luke 2:48 - Byzantine word order
Jonathan, I'm not sure what you are saying. They got angry because they knew that although the story dealt with them it was only a parable and they were not called out to their face? your question may have illustrated how the label "topic" can mislead people. The "topic" is infor...

Re: Aorist verbs in the Magnificat
PS: making sure that we are all sufficiently flexible in our discussions: The Luke-Gospel was written in Greek (we don't have proof, that there were Hebrew copies) Yes, Luke was written in Greek and he had access to sources, all, or at least most, in Greek. Period. No one here or pretty much anywher...
