<DIV><FONT size=2>Paul, you should have a look at the following: </FONT><FONT
size=2>Robinson, T. A. 1991. <EM>Mastering Greek vocabulary</EM>, 2nd rev. ed.
Peabody: Hendrickson. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Robinson's approach to teaching Greek vocabulary relies
heavily on the use of English words derived from NT Greek. In chapter 1 he lists
all the words that have a direct English equivalent, such as ABBA - abba,
ABUSSOS - abyss, AGKURA - anchor, etc. Chapter 3 is titled "Derived English
Words"; it lists words that are less directly derived. Here's one
entry:</FONT></DIV>
<BLOCKQUOTE style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">
<DIV><FONT size=2>*amnesty* - (not + remember -- A + MNH [MIMV]) the granting
of a pardon by forgetting acts that had brought condemnation; compare
amnesia.</FONT></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Regards,</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=2>Subject: looking for a book</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=2>> <BR>> Does anybody know of a book that gives
Greek words and their<BR>> corresponding <BR>> English
derivatives? I have often thought that such a book surely
must<BR>> exist but<BR>> have not stumbled upon it just yet. It
would certainly be handy and<BR>> useful.<BR>> <BR>> You know of what I
speak. For instance, take PNEUMA (then pneumatics,<BR>> pneumatology,
etc.).<BR>> <BR>> Thanks,<BR>> <BR>> Paul Dixon<BR>> <BR>>
