Class Notes: July 21, 2007

We will not meet on Saturday, July 28. Our next class will be Saturday, August 4, at 9:15 a.m.

The Lesson 6 quiz was simply a test on:
a) all the words (including the extra words) for Lesson 6, and
b) the "extra" words (LXX & NT, plus the other words I've given you to learn) up to this point, and
c) the Definite Article paradigm.

Class Notes and Comments

Lesson 7: Important Sections and points (but read all the Sections):

41. See the Sidebar for the vocabulary list of all words, including the extra words (no LXX/NT words for Lesson 7), as well as for audio files of the vocabulary.

42. The main enclitics you will encounter in New Testament Greek are:

• Forms of ειμι except for ει ("you (singular) are") - Section 43
• Forms of the indefinite pronoun and adjective τις/τι - Lesson 27 Section 192
• Unstressed oblique (i.e., non-nominative) forms of εγω ("I") and συ ("you" (singular)) - Section 45

43. Memorize the Present Indicative of ειμι. FYI - the Present Infinitive of ειμι is ειναι ("to be") - Lesson 24 Section 168.

45. Memorize the forms for the First, Second and Third Personal Pronouns, singular and plural. You already basically know the Third Person Personal Pronoun because it uses the same pattern and endings as the Definite Article and the First and Second Declension Nouns.

46. This section is very important to understand.

47. Do all the Exercises and check your answers.

See the Sidebar for Lesson 7 vocabulary and audio files and Exercises Answers.

If you have time, preview Lesson 8, esp. Section 51 on the other uses of αυτος.

Our reading will continue at Mark 1:16.
