Download or read book A New Syntax of the Verb in New Testament Greek written by Kenneth Leslie McKay and published by Studies in Biblical Greek. This book was released on 1994 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades it has been increasingly recognized that the forms of the verb in ancient Greek, including that of the New Testament, do not signal time (past, present, future), but aspect (the way each activity is viewed in relation to its context). Applying the new insights, this book offers a concise and clearly stated account of the way the verb works in the syntax of New Testament Greek. Its approach is pragmatic, with emphasis on context rather than theory. It can be read as a coherent account, and its four indexes also make it a handy reference book.
