Class Notes: September 8, 2007

Class Notes and Comments

Lesson 13: Important Sections and points (but read all the Sections):

82. See the Sidebar for the vocabulary list of all words, including the extra words, as well as for audio files of the vocabulary. Note that ολος is used in the predicate position - i.e., ολος ο λαος = "the whole people"

83. See the Comments from last week's class on "principal parts," as well as the "Indicative Verbs Chart" in the sidebar under the "VERBS" section for a chart that lays out the patterns and formations for verbs.

84. Read this, and if you have the Greek New Testament Insert (I'll have copies for everyone else next Saturday), read the following sections on Verbs beginning on p. 19:

  • "The Verbs: Tense and Aspect" (pp. 19-21)
  • "Time, Aspect, and Verbal Mood" (p. 22)
  • "Voices" (pp. 22-23)
  • "Moods" (pp. 23-24)
  • "Indicative Verbs" (pp. 24-30)
Memorize the forms of the Future Active and Middle Indicative (the Future Passive will be learned in Lesson 16 Section 111). Note that (for regular verbs) they are identical to the Present Active and Middle Indicative except for the inclusion of a σ between the stem and the ending.

85.-87. Memorize these forms of the First Aorist.

88. Read/study this Section (see Section 78 re: the final stem consonant changes). You should have the chart in Section 78 memorized - better yet, see the more complete chart I refer you to in my Comments on Section 78 from last week, which shows what the consonants change to when they combine with a σ.

89. Do all the Exercises and check your answers. See the Sidebar for Exercises Answers. For the English to Greek Exercises, you can refer to the "Greek to English Vocabulary" section in the back of the book for aorist forms of verbs to see if you figured them out correctly. Alternatively, you can look at the Principal Parts lists in the Greek New Testament Insert or look up the verbs in the Dictionary in the back of your Greek New Testament. (Note: if a verb is regular in its principal parts formation, the textbook and the GNT Dictionary may not list the principal parts.)

Our reading next week will continue at Mark 2, if we continue in Mark.
