Overview
The meanings of prepositions can be challenging to describe and understand, especially when one preposition is used in a variety of ways. A woman might hold an umbrella over her head while puzzling over a chess problem. She might also be over 100 years old. These kinds of variations in usage also occur in Greek. Grammatical differences among the world's languages and translation from one language to another only exacerbate such difficulties.
Greek Prepositions in the New Testament takes a cognitive-functional approach, guiding readers through the diverse meanings and usage of prepositions found in biblical Greek. Each article illustrates a preposition's basic usage before detailing how these patterns are extended and adapted to take on more complex or abstract senses--with examples provided along the way.
This book is an indispensable and user-friendly guide for students and scholars. It was previously available electronically, but due to demand, it is now in print for the first time. The second edition includes a new introduction and additional material.
