Class Notes and Comments

Our class for Saturday, January 5, 2008 will meet at 10:45 a.m., following the Divine Liturgy (9:00 a.m.). The Great Blessing of the Waters will follow the Liturgy, but we can begin our class and we will be "blessed" by the sprinkled waters when Fr. Justin blesses the dining room - so be prepared to cover/protect your books and New Testaments at that time! :)

Lessons 25 & 26: Important Sections and points (but read all the Sections):

174. See the Sidebar for the vocabulary list of all words.

176.-179. Familiarize yourself with these forms of nouns and adjectives. Mastronarde has a more extensive chart of adjective forms than Croy, including additional 3rd-Declension Adjective forms; his chart can be viewed here: Adjective Paradigm Index. Some of these words and forms may not occur in NT Greek. Also, Mastronarde shows the "dual" form (i.e., when a noun or adjective refers to things that come in pairs - e.g., eyes, hands, feet, etc.). The Greek dual had fallen out of use by NT times.

180. Do all the Exercises.

181. See the Sidebar for the vocabulary list of all words.

183.-185. Memorize all these Imperative forms.

187. Read this.

188. Memorize the Imperative form of ειμι.

189. Do all the Exercises.

If we continue with Κατα Ιωαννην The Gospel According to John, we'll take up where we left off at 2:1.
