Koine Greek Grammar: A Beginning-Intermediate Exegetical and Pragmatic Handbook
Fredrick J. Long

2019
nidottu
Koine Greek Grammar and its accompanying Workbook and Answer Key & Guide have been in the making for decades. It was first a small manual Kairos Greek Grammar; then it grew into a fully integrated and hyperlinked CD that has been published by Logos Bible Software (2005). Now, this current handbook--KOINE GREEK GRAMMAR: A BEGINNING-INTERMEDIATE EXEGETICAL AND PRAGMATIC HANDBOOK--has been thoroughly expanded to include my more explicit description of marked, emphatic, prominent, and pragmatic features of Greek, ideas that were nascent in KAIROS, but now grounded in a communication theory informed by Relevance Theory (Dan Sperber and Deirdre Wilson), Prominence Theory with reference to translation (Kathleen Callow), and Discourse Grammar and Pragmatics (Stephen Levinsohn, Stanley Porter, and Steven Runge). Exegetically significant aspects of Greek syntax and the use of the Greek language (i.e., pragmatics) occur strategically throughout KOINE GREEK GRAMMAR and include the following: - conjunctions and their constraints- point/counterpoint sets- polysyndeton, asyndeton, correlative emphasis, and lists- fronted modifiers for emphasis (genitive, demonstrative, quantitative)- vocatives as thematic address- appositional statements- the historic present and the verb tense options in narrative- metacomments as orienting statements- interjections as attention getting devices- quantitative, qualitative, interrogative, negative, and comparative types of emphasis- special uses of the noun cases- participle uses, including periphrastic and genitive absolutes- special uses of the Moods- left-(dis)locations- discourse pragmatic uses of the article- conditional and exception clauses.Some of these discussions will have extended Intermediate-level treatments that are placed within greyed boxes. Other significant enhancements are the inclusion of CHECK POINTS that give students a chance to practice what is being learned in each chapter along with (SUGGESTED) ANSWERS that immediately follow. Scattered throughout KOINE GREEK GRAMMAR are images of ancient realia, i.e., remnants of Mediterranean material culture including biblical and non-biblical papyri fragments, vase paintings, coins, bas-reliefs, imperial artifacts, inscriptions, funerary stele, statues, gems, temples, maps, and reconstructed scenes of life in the polis. The language and syntax of the Greek NT is contextually located in these worlds. Still present (but improved) are the CASE IN POINTS at the end of each chapter that briefly describe how particular points of Greek grammar just presented helps us when interpreting the Greek NT. In other words, the CASE IN POINT illustrates how Greek grammar is valuable as a tool for the study of the NT. In addition to having a full APPENDIX, VOCABULARY OF WORDS OCCURRING 20 TIMES OR MORE, and INDICES, KOINE GREEK GRAMMAR has a separate extensive WORKBOOK AND ANSWER KEY & GUIDE. that has been carefully crafted with many exercises drawn directly from biblical expressions and actual verses.
Studying Scripture is not just for pastors or teachers; it's for all of God's people. This is an honor, a privilege, and a humble service for the whole world. This book presents three levels of study for lay persons, pastors, and postgraduate students. In essence this book offers a summary of foundational issues followed by "best interpretive practices" across twelve essential areas of study such as contextual location, grammatical study, lexical research, historical context, scriptural correlations (intertextuality), and presentation brainstorm. Hermeneutically, this work utilizes three most fruitful streams of biblical interpretation: traditional historical-critical exegesis, transmodern socio-rhetorical investigation, and classical inductive biblical study. Throughout, readers will find hundreds of charts, illustrations, examples, and in-text exercises that will inform, guide, and provoke careful study of God's Word.

Dio Chrysostom or "golden mouth" (ca. 40-115 CE) was many things-rhetorician, orator, philosopher, historian, moralist as well as enemy and friend of Roman Emperors. He was a prime representative of the "Second Sophistic" movement. His command of the Greek language was Atticizing; his eighty extant discourses are a treasure trove of Greco-Roman cultural mores, lifestyle, religion, and ideology. Preeminent among these discourses are the first four of the collection-The Kingship Orations-written for the emperor Trajan. Within this Tier 5 Advanced Greek Reader of the AGROS series, the Greek text of Kingship Oration 1 is provided with glosses for Greek words occurring less than thirteen times in the Greek New Testament provided in footnotes. This is an ideal resource for self-study or classroom use. Features of this book include: -An Introduction to Dio Chrysostom's Kingship Orations with a select bibliography;-A succinct discussion of the most salient features of Dio's Greek;-A summary of the Constituent Marking Method for navigating the Greek text;-The Greek text of the first Kingship Oration with ample spacing & footnoted glosses for Greek words occurring less than thirteen times in the Greek New Testament;-An Appendix of Greek words occurring thirteen times or more in the Greek New Testament.

Church planters generally are optimistic and enthusiastic about church planting for this generation. Many are launching or about to experiment with innovative approaches to plant churches that engage the marketplace. They are applying missional perspectives to reach this large mission field. This book documents and explores these innovative approaches to church planting. The various authors describe how entrepreneurs are now finding where people are already gathering (or would gather) in the marketplace such that these businesses create a venue for a church. We are calling this Entrepreneurial Church Planting (ECP). In order to encourage and explore further innovative ECP approaches, this book provides both theoretical foundations and practical applications arranged in three parts. Part I contains an introduction to the volume. Part II provides the biblical foundations to undergird ECP. Part III provides practical applications from both historical and contemporary examples and concludes with suggested starting points for experimentation and implementation. The goal of this volume is to encourage church planters to explore creative church planting approaches by engaging their faith in the marketplace.

The critical study of biblical materials is foundational for biblical scholarship. Jesus himself was shaped by Hebrew Scripture and critically engaged it. Indeed, Jesus is an example for others to follow. By "critical" is meant the application of established methodologies to interpret biblical texts. In Essays Exploring New Testament Texts: Biblical Research Methods Applied, readers will see the application of various methodologies to the interpretation of New Testament texts: textual criticism, genre criticism, redaction criticism, intertextuality, narrative criticism, rhetorical criticism, discourse pragmatics, and inductive biblical study. A broad swath of New Testament books is here interpreted: Matthew, Luke, John, Acts, 1 Timothy, Hebrews, 2 Peter, Jude, and Revelation.

In his groundbreaking book, The Scientific Proof of God, Fredrick Swaroop Honig takes difficult concepts about quantum physics and the functioning of the universe, and explains them in simple language that anyone can understand. He integrates science and consciousness and shows us how this information contains the very core of our purpose on this planet. This is an inspiring read that leaves us with hope about our lives and the goodness of this world."- Marci Shimoff, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Happy for No ReasonFredrick Swaroop Honig is a visionary whose insights bridge the scientific and spiritual worlds. Swaroop was trained as a Mechanical Engineer at UC Berkeley in the '70s, and then lived as a monk for twenty years in the Ashram of the acclaimed interfaith leader Sri Swami Satchidananda. His forty years of deep meditation practice have revealed to him profound insights into the nature of the universe.In The Scientific Proof of God, Swaroop integrates into the standard model of physics the dimensions of Consciousness and Intention. He sheds light on how the universe began and illuminates the twelve principle mysteries presently unanswered in the standard model of physics.Swaroop offers a new application of Einstein's famous equation E=mc2, and how this equation when applied to the universe's dimension of consciousness becomes the Unitive Field Law of Causation. This one equation explains the cause and effect of any action as well as how the primal singularity, the seed of the universe, came into existence before the Big Bang.As a golden bridge between Science and Spirituality, this book also explains how the name of God can be used for attaining Unitive Consciousness. Through these pages, the universe will make more sense to you and you will better understand your unique part in it. We are one with Unitive Consciousness, and realizing this is the goal of life.
We often hear stories of fallen pastors, either in cases of fraudulence, adultery, fornication, child abuse, or divorce. Suicide also seems to be prevalent among pastors. Isolation, division, sickness, inability to provide for their families, unfruitful ministry, lack of souls won to the cross, and lack of spiritual fathering and mentoring can eventually lead to pastors walking away from their pulpits. Perhaps walking away defeated. Where will they go? What will they do? Will they recover? Will congregants care? Who Prays for the Pastor? The purpose of this book is to bring awareness of many things pastors experience on their journeys to answering the call of God to shepherd His people. To encourage pastors to connect with like-minded leaders for fellowship, accountability, and spiritual development. The author hopes that pastors will read the final words of this book and feel refreshed in knowing that God is the God of mercy and grace. This book will encourage you to pray that your pastor remains holy in the course of their assignment, fully understanding that God who gives vision also makes the provision.
