PREFACE
TO
request.
Although the warmest acknowledgments are due from the English public to the
venerable and learned author of this useful work, it is not to be denied that it
labours under very considerable defects. The peculiar opinions of the school of
Hutchinson, of which Mr. Parkhurst was at least an admirer, induced him to attri-
bute great importance to etymological researches ; and his own (in which he in-
dulged so largely in this Lexicon) are unfortunately in the highest degree fanciful
and uncertain. The cosmological theories of Hutchinson and Bate are dwelt on
with a frequency and an extent little adapted to the
plan of the Lexicon ; and their
other tenets occasionally give a tinge to the author's interpretations and comments
which deprives them of the authority which his sound learning and exceeding love
of truth would otherwise bestow on them. I presume not to pronounce an opinion
on the merits of the Hutchinsonian philosophy. I reverence the piety and the
learning of many of its followers but a book for general use and general readers
:
was not the place for introducing tenets so much doubted and opposed.
A still greater fault in the Lexicon is the want of accurate discrimination between
the various senses of the same word. Great inconvenience also arises from the
paucity of instances given under each head, and the looseness of the references
to profane authors. These defects had altogether banished the work from the
shelves of the critical reader, and its place has been supplied there by the labours of

present . Nor are they by any means free from defects of a different kind. Let
me not be suspected of wishing to depreciate those by whose labours I have so
largely profited in the execution of the following work,
nor of being insensible to
their very great merits in many respects. Those merits are, however, too well
known any panegyric from me. It is my less grateful task to point out
to require
some deficiencies which render any attempt, however humble, to produce a work
likely to be more useful to at least one large class of readers, entitled to forgive-
ness, if not to commendation. Schleusner's work then is, 1 think, characterized by
one defect, of a nature exactly opposite to that which I have remarked of Parkhurst.
2
Instead of confounding various senses under one head, he multiplies the senses of
the same word in a manner frequently quite unreasonable, and calculated to mislead
the student. Where the context, and the context alone, affixes a peculiar meaning
to a word, that meaning becomes, in Schleusner's hands, a distinct and recognized
sense of the word itself. In respect to the arrangement, indeed, of the various
senses of words, as well as in critical powers, Wahl appears to me very far to
surpass Schleusner. But Schleusner's work labours under another and very serious
defect, one indeed which renders the execution of another Lexicon, on the same
extended plan as his, almost indispensable. No one who has examined his work
with any accuracy can suppress a doubt whether he has consulted a large portion
of the places which he cites. His plan, it would appear, has been this he has :
collected the best commentators, and has copied their references, very often without
examining them. If there were no proofs of this from internal evidence, it would
be impossible to doubt the fact, when things are so managed that in the very same
article we
frequently find references to the same author from the book and section
in one edition, and from the page in another, and then find the solution to the
3
enigma by tracing the one reference perhaps to Eisner, and the other to Kypke .
Writing as I do, in the country, with a very small command of books, I must freely
own that I have not always myself been able to verify the references which I
observe but I confess my surprise that a man of Schleusner's
;
learning and dili-
gence, resident, as I believe he was, at Wittenberg, should have failed in dis-
charging so necessary a part of the task he has undertaken. The student who uses
Schleusner's work, if he finds a statement that such or such an usage of a word is

doubted preference. I must observe, too, among Schleusner's minor defects, that
he does not always cite the Scripture itself, either of the Old or New Testa-
1
ment, with accuracy doubt not that the carelessness thus evinced arises
, though I
from the severity of the labour he had undergone, and under which the most
patient
and laborious spirit will occasionally bend.
Of Bretschneider's work I would only say, that it appears to me faulty because
the author endeavours to reduce the fleeting and delicate senses of words to an
arrangement too strictly logical, and thus sacrifices utility to the appearance of
philosophical accuracy. Its principal value arises, I think, from his intimate
acquaintance with the style of the Apocryphal writings of the Old and New Testa-
ment, and the illustrations of the sacred writings which he is enabled to adduce
from that source.
Wahl appears to me very far the first of the three in powers of arrangement and
in criticalknowledge of the language of Scripture. To one who lived near a large
library, and did not regard trouble, his book would be most useful but for common ;
readers, the mere the sake of saving space, he rarely or never cites
fact, that, for
the words of any authors, but gives references to them, is a serious, nay, an insuper-
able objection. In the edition, too, at present in use 2 , the errors of the press,
especially in the references to Scripture, are so numerous, (a defect very rare in the
works of Wahl's diligent and laborious countrymen,) that mistakes and trouble
are perpetually arising.
In addition to these objections, the fact, that all these works are written in Latin,
renders them less useful to the class of readers for whom Parkhurst's Lexicon was
from my own very limited reading, such other information as that reading would
supply. In particular, I have often briefly adverted to the various interpretations

For example, in the word KartvavTi, he quotes 6< for 6ov, in Rom. iv. 17 ; and in
KOTTiduj he quotes ITTI and a dative, from John iv. 6. where we find t/c with a genitive. So again
(vol. iii. 615. in irvtv^ia, 20.) we find an incorrect citation of Rom. viii. 2 ; and in professedly
citing the LXX, uncommon for him to use some of the other versions. Schleusner's

Ps. cxviii., and in the very next word he cites it as Ps. cxix. I have referred generally to Mill's
edition of the LXX for the Psalms. The two latter instances of inaccuracy (viz. John iv. 6. and
Rom. viii. 2.) are, not corrected in the
Glasgow 4to edition of 1824. The first is.

I have thought that it would be useful for those who are attending to the style of
the New Testament, to distinguish the words which do not occur in the LXX
version of the Old and such words are distinguished accordingly by the mark lliT.

I have usually added in such cases, as well as others, instances from the Apocryphal

I had prepared a long article, according to Bp. Middleton's view of this subject,
adding instances from the New Testament under each head, and venturing to
suggest such observations as occurred to me. But since I made that statement,
Professor Scholefield has republished Bp. Middleton's work, and it can now be
procured by every reader. Under these circumstances, as I am not ashamed to
own that I cannot satisfy myself on a point on which opinions differ so widely, that,
while Bp. Middleton maintains that the article is always used in compliance with
the strictest rules, a living prelate has declared his opinion, that its use is guided
by no rule at all, I have withheld the article in question for farther consideration.
In the Grammar I have endeavoured to introduce such additions from Buttmann

TO THE
PARKHURST'S Lexicon to the New Testament was considered, even in its original
form, as a valuable auxiliary to the labours of the student. The additions and
improvements which it has since received, cannot fail to have rendered it still more
acceptable and useful. By the unwearied pains of that eminent scholar and divine,
Mr. Rose, it now
presents a copious storehouse of materials for the elucidation and
illustration of the sacred text ; and will remain a lasting monument of his learning,
diligence, and research. The errors of the press, to which he has alluded in his
Preface, as likely to arise from restoring the accents to the Greek, have been
carefully corrected in this edition. His wishes have also been carried out in the
affixing of the points to the Hebrew. This task has been kindly undertaken, and
ably executed, by the Rev. Dr. M'Caul, Professor of Hebrew in King's College,
London ; from whose pen the following observations are subjoined, for the inform-
ation and guidance of the reader :
they sometimes differ considerably from those given in modern Hebrew Lexicons.
In such cases, the reader must be led by the weight of evidence and analogy, and
receive or reject Parkhurst's conjectures accordingly. He will, however, often
find them both sagacious and valuable anticipations of that system of comparative
etymology which now obtains in the Indo-European languages, and which has of
1
late been applied to the Hebrew and its sister dialects ."
In order to distinguish the few observations, that have been now inserted, from
the additions of Mr. Rose, the following mark has been adopted f t- :

PREFACE
TO
ABOUT seven years ago was published an Hebrew and English Lexicon, with a
Grammar prefixed and I must with gratitude acknowledge that the favourable
;
reception given by the public to that work has been a considerable support to me
in going through the following laborious performance ; the general design of which
the volumes of the inspired writings, it may appear justly surprising that the
attainment of the languages, in which those sacred books were originally penned,
has not been long ago made as easy as possible to English Protestants and it is ;
language of such real difficulty as the Latin, might, with the assistance of proper
Grammars and Lexicons, be abundantly sufficient for their instruction in the Hebrew
of the Old, and in the Greek of the New Testament, and might enable them to
read, in their original purity, those divine writings, on which their profession as
Protestants, and, what is of yet greater moment, their faith and hope as Christians,
are founded.
xii PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION.
That our country lias, from the times of the Reformation down to this day, been
blessed with learned and pious men, will hardly be disputed by any who im-
many
partially reflect on the history of literature and religion among us and yet it is ;
equally certain that few, very few, have endeavoured to introduce their countrymen
to a direct acquaintance with the languages in which the Sacred Oracles were at
first delivered. What poor assistance has till of very late years been offered to the
mere English Protestant for enabling him to understand the original of the Old
Testament, it is not my present business particularly to declare with regard to :
the New, indeed, somewhat more has been attempted. I have now before me a
" A
small octavo, entitled, Greek-English Lexicon, containing the Derivations and
various Significations of all the Words in the New Testament, &c., by T. C., late
of C. C. C., in Oxford London, printed in 1658." Who was intended by the
:
initials T. C. I know
not; but in Calamy's Abridgement of Baxter's Life, p. 188,
it is said, that Mr. Joseph Caryl, author of
" An
Exposition, with Practical Obser-
vations, on the Book of Job," had a hand in the work just mentioned. But it is
the less wonderful that the editor, whoever he was, did not choose to put his name
at length to the title-page of this Lexicon, since it is, in truth, only an abridged
translation of Pasor's ; which material circumstance, however, the translator has
not been ingenuous enough to acknowledge, nor, so far as I can find, has ever once
mentioned Pasor's name. At the end of the Lexicon, besides a Greek and English
Index, and a grammatical explanation of the second chapter of Romans, are added
an English Translation of Pasor on the Greek Dialects of the New Testament, and
another of the common Greek Grammar. On the whole, as this Lexicon has most
of the excellences of Pasor's, which is no doubt a valuable work, so it cannot be
denied that it has likewise all its imperfections, and particularly that very consider-
able one which arises from ranging the Greek words, not alphabetically, but under
their respective roots a method which must to a beginner occasion a great deal
;
of unnecessary trouble. But the most remarkable work of this kind furnished by
the last century is Symson's Lexicon and Concordance, printed likewise in 1658,
in a small folio,under the titles of " Lexicon Anglo-Grseco-Latinum Novi Testa-
menti/'&c., and of "'H THS KAINHS AIA9HKHS 2YMOQNIA, or An Alpha-
betical Concordance of all the Greek Words contained in the New Testament,
by
Andrew Symson ;" a performance this, which, whilst it exhibits the prodigious
labour of its no very high opinion of his genius or skill in the
author, can give one
art of instruction. If, indeed, the method and ingenuity of this writer had been
proportionable to his industry, one might, I think, almost affirm, that he would
have rendered all future Greek and English Lexicons to the New Testament in a
great measure superfluous but by injudiciously making the English translation the
;
that the Doctor's method and his plan so very different from mine,
is so concise,
that, had his Concordance been published sooner, I could have derived no great
t;iiirc from it.

By primitive words are meant such whose derivation can be fairly traced no farther
in the Greek and by derivatives, those that are plainly deducible from some other
;
more simple word, or words, in that language. It must be confessed, that etymo-
logical writers have, by their forced and whimsical derivations, drawn upon them-
selves part of that contempt which has been so liberally poured upon them and as ;
to the Greek Lexicographers in particular, nothing has run them into such risible
most of the Lexicons hitherto published, but the learned reader will easily recollect
enow ; and, for my own part, I very willingly forbear to expose men who, with all
their mistakes, have deserved well of learning and of religion, to the petulancy of
ignorance and the contempt of fools. The truth of the case is plainly this, that
whatever were the nature of that confusion at Babel, yet it is as evident as any
matter of fact can be, that the traces of great numbers of Hebrew words are pre-
served not only in the Greek and Latin, but also in the various languages which
2
are spoken in the world, and particularly in the Northern tongues, where
still
one should least expect to find them and in relation to the Greek in particular,
:
I will venture to add, after long attention to the subject, that almost all the
Greek 3 primitives, which virtually include the whole language, may be naturally and

N.B. The Oriental and Latin words which occur in the New Testament are likewise printed
in capitals, since they also ought to be considered as primitives with respect to the Greek.

That what I have above said may not be deemed a novel opinion, I think proper to remark,
that the learned author of the Port-Royal Grammar, Preface, p. 8. edit. Nugent, speaking of
the Hebrew, says, it " is the most ancient of all languages, from whence the Greek itself derixes
its origin." And the writers of the Universal History, vol. xvi. p. 53, 8vo edit., express them-
" That the most ancient
selves thus : Greek tongue approached much nearer the Eastern languages
than those dialects of it used by even the oldest Greek classics, appears from the obsolete radices
of that tongue, which generally discover a near relation to the East. The proximity of the earliest
Greek language to the Oriental tongues was well known to Isaac Casaubon and Erpenius, and
may be so to any who examines the Greek roots with proper attention." See also the learned

easily deduced from the Hebrew. This, if I am not greatly mistaken, I have
1
demonstrated in the ensuing Lexicon with respect to such primitives as are used in
the New Testament and these, it must be observed, comprehend a very large part
;
of all the radicals in the Greek language. And though I am far from presuming
that in such a number of derivations no oversights have escaped me, and have

the Greek primitives being thus throughout referred to their Hebrew roots,
By
the relation between those two languages is clearly shown ; and I cannot but hope
understand Hebrew, and incite others to undertake the easy task of acquainting
themselves with the rudiments of that original tongue.
When the primitive words in Greek are once settled, it is no difficult matter for
a person, tolerably skilled in the language, to refer the derivatives and compounds
to their respective radicals. Here, indeed, former Lexicon- writers have contributed
ample assistance, and I have scarcely ever seen reason to differ from them all in
regular order the several consequential senses, and to support these by apposite
citations or references, explaining likewise, in their proper places, the various
phrases and idioms of the language HOC opus, me labor est ; in the particulars
just mentioned consists the main difficulty of writing a Lexicon, and by the manner
in which they are executed must its merit or demerit be principally determined.
All I can say for myself in these respects is, that I have honestly and conscientiously
done my best nor have I knowingly and wilfully misrepresented a single word or
;
expression, nor paid a regard to the opinions of any man, or number of men, what-
ever, furtherthan they appeared to me agreeable to the Sacred Oracles, and to the
analogy of the Greek tongue.
Where more senses than one are assigned to a word, these are distinctly placed
in several paragraphs, with the Roman, and in some cases, with the common,
numeral figures prefixed and every sense, which occurs in the New Testament, is

applied. This method, at the same time that it presents the more advanced scholar
with the evidence on which each particular
meaning is attributed to every word,
will, doubt not, be also found by experience to conduce greatly to the ease and
I
by Mintert and others, of huddling the various senses of a word together, and
subject a little further, I would beg the reader's attention to the three following
*
observations. First, that in the apostolic age Greek was the most universally
spoken and understood of any language upon earth but secondly, that in all the :
Eastern parts of the world it had undoubtedly received a strong tincture from the
Hebrew and Oriental tongues : and lastly, that the books of the New Testament
were written not only for the benefit of this or that particular Church, or people,
but of the whole world, both Jews and Gentiles. Such being, in the time of the
apostles, the real state of the Greek language, and of mankind in respect to it and
to the Evangelical writings, we may defy the utmost wit and malice of the enemies
of God's Revelation to point out a wiser method of communicating the Scriptures
of the New Testament to the world, than that which the Holy Spirit has actually
Hebrew and Oriental forms of expression, many of which are adopted by the
Evangelical writers.
Let us suppose that a person whose native language was Greek, and who had
read some of the best Greek authors, but was entirely ignorant of the Eastern
tongues, had met with some or all of the sacred books of the New Testament soon
after their publication : the principal difficulty, I apprehend, which one thus
qualified would find in understanding their style, would have arisen, not from the

Greek classics, and the meaning of others is so plain as not to be easily mistaken,)

absolutely impossible for the sacred writers to express themselves at all, concerning
the most essential points, unless they had either coined new words, or used such old
ones as they already found in a new sense; new, I mean, to the mere Gentile
Greeks, who were unacquainted even with the notions these words were intended to
convey, till they had learned them from the explanation of the terms themselves, or
from the previous preaching of the Gospel, but by no means new to the Grecizing
Jews, and to all those who had read the Septuagint translation, since the same words
had been there applied in the same senses. The writers, therefore, of the New
Testament, or rather (with reverence be it
spoken !) the Holy Spirit, whose penmen
they were, wisely chose, in expressing evangelical notions, to employ such Greek
terms as had been long before used for the same purposes by the Greek translators
of the Old Testament : and thus the Septuagint version, however imperfect 1 and
faulty in many particulars, became, in this respect, not to the first age of the
church only, but also to succeeding generations, the connecting link between
all
the language of the Old and of the New Testament, and will be regarded in this
view as long as sound judgment and real learning shall continue among men.
But it is time to return, and give the reader an account of the assistances I have
used in compiling the ensuing work. In deriving, then, the Greek primitives from
their Hebrew originals, I have received considerable help from Thomassin's
Methode d'Etudier et d'Enseigner la Grammaire et les Langues. I have, however,
seen but too frequent reason to dissent from the derivations proposed by that
writer,and have often substituted others more probable (I hope) in their room.
In the explanatory part, besides continually consulting the common Lexicons, and
many of the best commentators and critics, (a list of whom may be seen below,)

carefully perused several of the best Greek authors in the original, with a direct
view to the improvement of this work. The writings of Josephus, in particular,
have furnished many passages for illustrating not only the phraseology, but like-
wise the histories and predictions of the New Testament And here I would, 1

once for all, request the forgiveness of the candid and ingenuous, if, on some
occasions, I seem to go too far beyond my title-page, and instead of a Lexicon-
writer turn commentator. In mitigation of this offence
(if such it be) 1 must beg
leave to plead, that
my grand view was to throw light on the inspired books of the
New Testament, and to make them easily intelligible to the English Christian and ;
that from this, my principal scope, I hope it will not be found that I have often
deviated. And if an author might be permitted to speak a word or two more in
favour of his own performance, I would in this place humbly recommend the
following Grammar and Lexicon, first, to all those who may have an inclination to
learn the Greek language, though previously unacquainted with Latin secondly, :
to those who having formerly acquired some knowledge of Greek at school, but
having afterwards intermitted such studies, are in more advanced life desirous of
youth of our schools and universities who will certainly meet with many things
;
in this which are not to be found in the common Lexicons, and which, I trust, will
tend to give them right apprehensions with regard to many particulars, both of
Christian faith and practice and fourthly, may I add, that I am in hopes this work
:
may be of some service to my younger brethren of the clergy ? who are not only here
presented with a critical explanation of all the words and phrases in the New Testa-
ment, and with the illustration of many difficult passages, but are also generally re-
ferred to the larger expositions of such writers, both of our own and other countries,
as seem to have excelled on the several subjects of sacred criticism.
After all, I am thoroughly sensible that a work of this kind must, from its very
nature, be capable of continual improvement, and really apprehend that it is
almost an absurdity to talk of a perfect Lexicon or Dictionary I have
accordingly :

if
beg them to select a few such words as occur pretty frequently in the Greek Testa-
ment, and endeavour to go through their various acceptations in the manner of this
Lexicon; and, if their pride has not quite eaten up their good-nature, I dare say
that two or three trials of this kind will, at least, turn their contempt of the
Lexicographer into pity, and incline them to think that even some considerable and
obvious mistakes might be justly pardonable in a work, which, they will be con-
vinced, must have required so long and so close an application.
But whatever censures malignant criticism may pass on the ensuing performance,
or whatever reception it may meet with from my countrymen in general, praised be
the Father of Mercies and the God of all Comfort, who, amid a variety of avocations
and infirmities, hath enabled me to bring it to a conclusion. And may the blessing
of the same God attend it to the heart of every reader !
May He prosper it to his
own glory, to the diffusion of Divine knowledge, to the promotion of Christian
practice, to the salvation of souls ! Amen and Amen.

TO
IN order to give the reader some distinct information in what respects the present
edition of the Greek and English Lexicon differs from the former, it may be proper
to observe,
1st, That the typographical errors of that edition are in this carefully corrected.
2ndly, That the Appendix is here digested into the body of the Lexicon so that, ;
plying in a great measure to the younger student the want of those eminent
scriptural critics, Raphelius, Eisner, Alberti, and Wolfius, not to mention others
therein quoted. However, as Mr. Mall and myself had drawn our information
from nearly the same sources, and our plans were in some respects different, I
could derive but little additional assistance from his Lexicon for the improvement
of the present publication.
4thly, That, in this edition, some parts of the preceding, which seemed wrong or
exceptionable, are expunged, many altered, and many additions made, chiefly from
the accurate Kypke's Observationes Sacrse, and from works lately published in our
own language; such as Bp. Pearce's Commentary, Mr. Bowyer's Conjectures,
(4to, edit. 1782,) Dr. George Campbell on the Four Gospels, Michaelis's Intro-
duction to the New Testament, translated by the learned Mr. Marsh, and by him
enriched with many critical and instructive Notes.

5thly, That the most material and best authenticated various readings, particu-
larly from Mill's, Wetstein's, and Griesbach's editions of the Greek Testament, are
here fairly, though briefly, presented to the reader's consideration and judgment ;
and may, it is
hoped, incite the more advanced student diligently to consult those
elaborate and critical editions, and may particularly induce him to peruse Mr.
Marsh's excellent publication above mentioned.
Lastly, That, in the whole, about a hundred and ten pages are now added to the
Greek and English Lexicon.

ensuing Grammar, which
devise,and adapted to the use of the mere English reader. It is true indeed that
we already have several Greek Grammars written in our own language and could I ;
have found any one of these that would have answered my purpose, I should have
been very glad to have referred my readers to it, and to have saved myself the
trouble of compiling a new one ; but all the Greek Grammars I have yet seen in
English proceed upon a supposition that the learner already understands Latin. Thus,
for instance, Dr. Milner,though in the preface to his third edition he remarks that
he has offered to his countrymen THE FIRST GREEK GRAMMAR IJN ENGLISH, yet in
the course of his work he renders most of the Greek examples not into English but
Latin, and at page 8 observes, that he has omitted the definitions of things common
to Latin and Greek, because the young scholar is supposed to be acquainted with
them from his Latin Grammar and the author of the Port-Royal Grammar, at the
;
"
beginning of the 7th book, which treats of the Greek Syntax, professes to comprise
no more precisely than what the Greek varies in from the Latin, judging it quite
unnecessary to repeat how an adjective agrees with its substantive, or a verb with its
nominative, and such other rules as are exactly uniform in both languages." Edit.
Nugent, p. 315. Let me add, that every man who has thought much upon such
a curious and extensive subject as grammar may justly claim some indulgence to
his own notions concerning it, and ought to be allowed his own
peculiar method of
arranging his conceptions, and communicating them to others.
What I have just alleged (not to insist on other reasons that might be urged)
will, I hope, be deemed a sufficient apology for my adding another Greek Grammar
to those and
from designing in the least to detract from the

merit of the excellent grammarians who have preceded me, I very thankfully
acknowledge the almost continual assistance I have received from them. Besides the
common Greek Grammar, I have throughout consulted the Port-Royal, Dr. Busby's,
Dr. Milner's, and Mr. Stackhouse's but am most ;
especially obliged to Mr. Holmes,
though in deducing the tenses of verbs from their theme I have preferred the common
method, as appearing to me more easy and simple than his; and have in the syntax
endeavoured to illustrate the government of Greek verbs,

kind that has come to my knowledge.
In making use of this Grammar, the rules and examples, which are printed in the
it will be sufficient to read them over attentively two or three times, and to consult
I would advise them not to trouble themselves at all with the contracted nouns
under each declension, nor with the Attic nouns under the second. The principal
IVth Section are so plain and easy, that reading them over two or three
rules of the
times will be sufficient ; and Sect. V. and VI. should at present be entirely omitted.
As for the declensions of uncontracted adjectives, in Sect. VII., they can occasion
the learner but supposing him already perfect in declining the
little difficulty,
uncontracted substantives the contracted and irregular adjectives in this Section

should be left for future consideration; but the principal rules and examples in
Sect. VIII. and IX. are to be now learned. The beginning of Sect. X. will require
particular attention, and the active voice of a verb in oj must be gotten by heart.
The principal of the following rules should also be committed to memory. In
Sect. XI., after reading the two first rules, the verb elpi and the passive voice of
a verb in w must likewise be learned by heart, nor can the principal rules in this
section be dispensed with. If the directions hitherto given have been duly observed,
the formation of the middle voice, and of the deponent verb in Sect. XII. will be very
easy the principal rules, however, will here also require the same attention as in the
;
preceding sections and the learner, to try his knowledge of the Greek verbs, may
;
now attempt to draw out several schemes or trees, as in Sect. XII. 16, but must not
be discouraged if he finds that at first he makes some considerable mistakes : to be
perfect in the formation of the Greek verbs requires long use and practice in the
language, and greater readiness in the rules for forming the tenses than can reason-
ably be expected from a beginner. Sect. XIII. XIV. XV. and XVI. should be as
yet omitted, and an attentive reading or two will suffice for the four following
sections. This brings us to the Syntax, Sect. XXL, in which the learner should

preparation, proceed to the Grammatical

by the references to the foregoing parts of the Grammar, and by the assistance of
the Lexicon, to make himself perfect master of every word in it, except only the
contracted nouns and verbs, the verbs in p, and the anomalous ones and even for ;
all these, when they occur, he would do well to consult the Grammar. Having
thus mastered the first chapter of St. John, he may, with the assistance of the

to account grammatically for every word in themanner of the praxis ; and as he
advances in reading, he must also peruse in order such parts of the Grammar as
were before omitted, and learn by heart the examples of the contracted substantives,

(especially the primitives) that occur, and their English interpretation, in opposite

master, to read the New Testament in the language

and obtain the satisfaction of examining for himself what were the real doctrines of
Christ and his apostles, in the words not of a fallible, though truly excellent,
translation, but in those of the infallible, because inspired, ORIGINAL.

A PLAIN AND EASY
GREEK GRAMMAR,
SECTION I.
I. THE Letters in Greek are twenty-four, of which the following Table shows,
The Names,
A PLAIN AND EASY SECT. I.
Greek may be reckoned twelve six proper, at, av, ft, tv, ot, ov ; and six improper, p, 37, y, rjv, m, uv ;
;
the little stroke under a, ?j, w, standing for iota, and being called iota subscribed, or subscript.
8. The consonants are divided into nine mutes, ?r, /3, K, y, x > r > ^ $
;
four liquids, X, /*, v, p ;
>
<T,
and three double letters, made of g or 05 % made of yg, Kg, or ^g 5 and ;//, of /3g, TTQ, or 0g.
;
9. The nine mutes are divided into tenues, or smooth, TT, K, T ; media?, or intermediate, ft, y, 5 and ;
letters, K, y, % ; and the dentals, or teeth -letters, T, 5, 9, are related respectively, and frequently
exchanged for each other, i. e. one labial for another labial, as TT for (3 or $ ; one palatine for
another palatine, as K for y or x 5 or one dental for another dental, as T for 5 or G.
10. If in a word one mute follows another, a tennis is put before a tenuis, a media before a media,
and an aspirate before an aspirate, as rirvTrrai, for Tervtyrai, he teas smitten ; efldojjiog, for ETrrcytog,
tJte seventh ;
iTixpQrjv, for IrvirQ^v, I was smitten.
1 1. Every word
having a vowel or diphthong for the first letter is, in most printed books, marked
at the beginning either with an aspirate, i. e. a rough breathing ('), as opog pronounce horos, or with
a vitvolh one ('), as opog pronounce oros.
12. The former only of these breathings is of necessary use, and may be considered as a real
anciently written H , then \-, and for expedition (') whence the other side of
2
letter, which was
l
;
the letter, -\, in quick writing ('), was taken to denote the smooth breathing. [It occurs in this form
in the most ancient editions of the Greek writers. The spiritus was introduced by the Alexandrian
grammarians 200 years B.C.]
13. Almost all words beginning with v or p are aspirated, or marked with a rough breathing ; and
3
if there be two ps in the middle of a word, the former is marked with a smooth, the latter with
a rough breathing, as t pp'oxro pronounce errhoso, Tropp'w porrho.
14. Of the marks over words, called accents, I shall only observe, that the acute (') marks the
elevation of tlie voice in a syllable, the grave Q the depression of it, and the circumflex (~ ) first the
elevation of the voice, then the depression of it, in the same syllable, and is therefore placed only on
long syllables.
15. A diuresis (") divides diphthongs, and shows that the vowels are to be sounded separate ;
as avTTvoq, pronounce a-upnos.
1 6. A diastole (,) distinguishes one word from another ; thus TO,T(. and the is distinguished from
TOTS then.
17. An apostrophe (') is the mark of the vowels a, e, t, o, or more rarely of the diphthongs at, ot,
being rejected at the end of a word, when the word following begins with a vowel, as aXX' tyw for
aXXd yw ; and observe, that if the first vowel of the second word have an aspirate breathing,
a preceding tenuis or smooth consonant must be changed into its correspondent aspirate or rough one,
(comp. above 11.) as d<j)' ripwv for airo iip&v, vi>xQ' o\rjv for VVKTO. o\r)v, Comp. above 10.
18. N is frequently added to words ending in 6 or t, if the next word begins with a vowel,
to prevent the concurrence of two vowels, as tlicoffiv oWptg for t t/coat drdptQ twenty men, TVTTTOVGIV
avrov for rinrTovat avrov they beat him, tdaiKsv airrtf for J^WKE awry he gave to him.
1 9. A letter or
syllable is called pure which has a vowel, and impure which has a consonant,
before it ; thus w in TTOKW is pure, in TVTTTO), impure.
20. The manner in which most Greek books were formerly printed, makes it necessary to add
a Table of tlie most usual ABBREVIATIONS or LIGATURES, which see fronting page 1.
21. As to the Greek punctuation, that language, in its present form, has four marks or stops ; the
full stop and comma, as in English, a dot placed towards the upper part of the word, and
serving both for a colon and a semicolon, as Xoyog' and the mark of interrogation resembling our
semicolon, as Xoyog ;
22. The Greeks express their numbers either by their small letters with a dash over them, thus, a',
or by their capitals. To express numbers by their small letters they divide their alphabet, which
with the addition of the three 7ri(Tj/ta, T orav, ^ KOTTTTU, and /?) OO.VTTI, consists of twenty-seven
letters, into three classes the letters of the first class, from a to 9, denote units ; of the second,
:
from t to 4? tens ; of the third, from p to /?), hundreds. Thousands are expressed in the same order
by adding an accent under the letters ; thus ^ is 1000.
Units. Tens. Hundreds. Thousands.

;
SECTION II.
1. WORDS are, in Greek, usually distinguished into eight kinds, called Parts of Speech ; Article,
Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Participle, Adverb, Conjunction, Preposition.
2. Of which the first five are declined, the last three undeclined.
3. A word is said to be declined when it changes its ending and ;
to be undeclined, when it does
not.
4.The Article, Noun, Pronoun, and Participle, are declined by number, case, and gender.
5.Numbers are two ; the singular, which speaks of one, as Xoyog a, i. e. one, word ; and the plural,
which speaks of more than one, as Xoyot words.
6. To these the Greeks have added a third number, called the dual, which speaks of two only, as
Xoyw two words. [This number did not exist in the oldest state of the Gi*eek language. It is not
found in the Latin, which is in many respects the oldest form of the Greek ; nor in the ^Eolic
dialect, which retains far more of the ancient language than the others.] It is not much used in
the profane writers ; and neither in the New Testament, nor in the Septuagint version of the Old,
do we ever meet with a dual, either noun or verb ; and therefore Observe, once for all, that though
in tlie following examples, both of nouns and verbs, the dual number is printed, yet it may greatly
contribute to the ease and progress of the learner entirely to omit it in declining.
7- A case is a variation of the termination or ending, denoting certain particles, of, to, &c.
8. The Cases are five in each number, nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, and vocative.
9. l
"
Things are frequently considered with relation to the distinction of sex or gender, as being
male or female, or neither one nor the other. Hence,"
10.
" Substantives are of the masculine, or feminine, or neuter, that is neither, gender."
11.
" The with nature the distinction
English language, singular propriety, following alone, applies
of masculineand feminine only to the names of animals ; all the rest (except in a figurative style)
are neuter." But,
12. In Greek, very many nouns, which have no reference to sex, are masculine or feminine.
13. The mark of the masculine gender is 6, of the feminine 17, and of the neuter TO. To this the
grammarians have given the name of dpQpov, or article, which properly denotes a joint in the body,
because of the particular connexion it has with the nouns. And before we come to the declining of
nouns, it will be necessary to be quite perfect in
14. The manner of declining the article o, r'j, TO, the or a.
15.The article has no vocative, but the interjection o> supplies the defect of this case in all
numbers, as does sometimes both in Latin and English.

therefore called parisyllabic * ; but the last increases in the oblique cases 2 , and so is called
3

imparisyllabic
5. The
first declension of substantives takes, in general, the termination of the feminine article,
and hath in the nominative four terminations, rj and a feminine, rjQ and ag masculine ; as fj Ti/irj,
r) Mouo-a ;
6 'Ayxio*/?, Alveiag.
[The Ionic dialect has rj universally in the final syllable of this declension, as aotyii], rjfjispr), Moixrrj,
Mi^qi, The Doric a. The Attic retains a where a vowel or p precedes the termination, as <ro<f>ia,

aq, a ; viaviaQ, la ; >//*pa, a, a, except dQdpr], TIQ, husked wheat, aWprj, fair weatlier, Koprj, Thuc. vi.

[In ^Eolic, the forms rj and as were changed into a, i. e. in the old Greek, and so in Homer
p,t]Ti&Ta, &c. ; whence the Latin form poeta, cometa, &c. Hence too the Latins changed Greek
names in ag into a, and the Greeks change the Roman names in a into UQ, as 2u\\a.]
6. 'H ri/iTj, the or an honour, is thus declined :
7. The nouns that end in a, rjg, and ac, differ but little from those in 77,
and are thus declined :
Sing. N. 6 'Ayxiffrjc;, Anchises, G. rov 'Ayx^ov, D. ry 'Ayx* ff y5 A. rov 'Ayxt<r?jv, V. a> 'Ay\iarj.
Sing. N. 6 Aiveiag, j"Eneas, G. TOV Alvtiov, D. r<p Aivtia, A. rov Alvtiav, V. a> Aivtia.
In the dual and plural they are all declined like Ti/tr).
8. Nouns ending in 8a, Qa, pa, and a pure (see sect. i. 19.) make their genitive in ac, and dative
in a, as Arjda, MdpQa, t'lptpa, QiXia and so do nouns in a contracted of aa, as fJLvd from fivda.
;
jcptrr/g, ngpo-rjg (a Persian), KWUTTTIG, ytw/igrpr/e, fBifB\io7T(!j\rjQ, Traioorpi'jSrjf, have the vocatives
icpird, Ilspffa, &c.
11. Nouns in arriq have either ry or a in the vocative, as \yarriQ, Voc. o> \yarfj or Xyord.
12. af make a in the genitive, especially proper names, as Boppdg, 0w/ia, TLijfyag,
Some nouns in
AOVKCLQ, G. Bopp'a, Ow^a, Kjj^a, Aovica. [In old Greek (Horn. II. 0. 85), from the Nom. j, two
forms, ao and tw, occur, of which the 1st remained in Doric (Find. Pyth. iv. 21), the 2nd in Ionic
(see Herodotus, passim) and, in some cases, in Attic.
;
This form is always monosyllabic ; see the
first line of the Iliad. It was, of course, originally written to, and hence came the Attic contraction
ov, and the ^Eolic form tv. From the 1st form ao, arose the Doric genitive a, which is retained in
proper names and some other nouns by the Attics.]
13. Contraction is the drawing of two final syllables into one and there are contracted nouns of
:
every declension. In this the general rule of contraction is, to cut off the vowel before the termina-
tion throughout all the cases ; thus, N. 17 yaXsrj, yaXij (a G. r)c yaXer/f, yaXtjjff, D. ry
weasel),
yaXsy, yaXy, A. rr\v yaXsrji/, yaXrjv, V. <i yaXtrj, yaXrj ; N. ) \ivda, pvd (a pound), G. rijc /iva'aff,
fivciQ,
D. ry fjivaa, [ivy,, A. rf\v nvdav, pvdv. But ta is contracted into r], as N. 'Ep/ilaff, iyc
(Mercury), D. 'Ep/ila, y, A. 'Ep/iav, fjv, unless p or a vowel immediately precedes, and then
the contraction is in a, as ip'ta, a, wool. Orj is contracted into rj, as (fern.) dirXor), aTrXt], simple.
1
From the Latin par equal, and syllaba a syllable.
2 All the cases except the nominative are by Grammarians called oblique, because they deviate or decline from the
nominative.
3 From the Latin impar unequal, and syllaba a syllable.

rules, however, may be useful.]
24. [(1.) Woi'ds in a and t take rog, as <rw/^a, /usXt ; except ydXa, ydXa/crog (from ydXa pro-
bably), and aivrjTTi, GivqirioQ (Attice vivi}Trnt)Q). (2.) Words in v (except acrrv, aartog or dortwg,
and 7ru>i), Trwtog) and ag take arog. Some, however, in at;, whose last syllable but one is short, take
apog, as tap, tapog, i. e. they follow the general rule. (3.) Neuters in ag short, make O.TOQ or aog,
which the Attics contract into wg, as Kptag, Kptarog, Kpt'wg ; and feminines in ag short, make og, as
Traordg, TraardSoQ. (4.) Words in tg make tog (Attice twg), iflog, I0og, irog. Probably the original
form was tffrog (see Horn. II. 0. 87), from which the others were formed by elision and provincial
pronunciation. (5.) Some words in ijg have fjrog, as 7rsvj/g, 0iX6r?;g. fldovrjg (a mountain on the
borders of Attica) has UdpvrjOoQ. (6.) Neuters in og make tog (Attice OVQ}. (7.) Some words in
wg make not only vog, but vdoQ (as ^Xa/zwg) and vQoQ (as Kopvg). (8.) Some words in wg make wog,
as j/pwg, and wrog, as 0wg.]
25. [It may be observed generally, that, to account for the apparent irregularities, the original
forms of the nominatives should be known. Thus, for example, of nouns in oug, some make owvrog,
some oirog, some oog. Those in OVVTOQ are contracted nouns, as /utXiroug, /utXirovj/rog, from /utXt-
rottg, otvrog ; and, as well as those which form ovrog, fall under the general rule (2), the old
termination having been tvg or tvrg and ovg or QVTQ. Those which form in oog, are probably not
derived from older forms of this sort, and are therefore also obedient to the same rule. 'Odoug was
originally perhaps otfwv (Herod, vi. 107-) or OOOVQ. Ilovg has 7roo"6g ; but it seems to have had
another form Tro'g, as its compounds are often parisyllabic. Again, the old forms of ydXa, yvvfi,
vdwp, <TK(6p, were probably ydXa, yvvai%, wo"ag, aicdg. The diphthongal terminations have many
irregular forms, as vav, i>aog and VTJOQ ; ypavg only ypaog. Krtig and tig make tvog ; /eXttg
makes jcXfidog.]
syllable, which have og impure in the genitive, make in their accusative both a and v, as N. tptg
contention, G. tpt^og, A. tpida and tptv ; N. Kopvg a helmet, G. /copy0og, A. KopvOa and KOOVV. Ilovg
afoot, in the accusative has only Troda, but its compounds have both a and v, as TroXuTroug many
footed, 7TO\viroda and iro\virovv, &c. So Xttg a key, has in the accusative both KXatfa and K\tlv ;
TraZg a boy, iralSa and ird'iv ; %dptg, G. j^dpiTOQ, when signify ing farour has only %dpiv, when a god-
dess xaptra. [Oxytones, i. e. nouns accented on the last syllable, also having og impure in the geni-
tive, have only a, as tXTrig, tXTrtfla.]
[The dative plural appears to have been originally formed from the nominative plural by
28.
adding i or at, and considering the neuter termination to be eg instead of a, as in Ionic, JEolic, and
Doric, this form remained, Trai$to-ai, dvdpta-ai, irpaynctTta-i. Then the usual changes for the sake
of euphony took place, i. e. some vowels and consonants were omitted, and other alterations were
made when necessary for the sake of quantity, which in this case was determined by that of the
nom. plural. Thus 6pvi9taat, opviQtai, opviOffi, opvitri rv(p9svTfff-cfi, TV<p9evTtai, TvfyQkvrai, rv<p9- ;
tifft a change analogous to that already observed in the nominative. These remarks can be easily
;
applied to explain different examples as practical rules, the following may suffice.]
: The datire
plural is formed 1. From the dative singular, by taking <r before i, and rejecting d, 9, v, and T, as
D. sing. jSorput, D. plur. fiorpvvi ; XauTrdfii, Xa/iTrdat ; opviQt, opviai dtXtylvi, diXfiici ', ; o*w/iari,
o-w/itto-i. 2. From the nom. sing, by adding i to nouns
ending in K, \j/, or g after a diphthong, as
a
N. Kopa, D. plur. ic6pai ! ; N. *Apai|/, D. plur. "Apaipt N. fiaaiXtvQ, D. plur. (3aaiXtvat. But ;
G. jcrevog, a comb, makes KTtai; Trout;? G. Tro^og, afoot, Treat and oug, G. wrog, an ear, uteri.
KTtiQ, ;
3. The dative singular tvri is in the dative plural changed into eto-i, ovn into ovai, as from nQkvri,
Ti9tlai, from Xiovri, Xtovai. 4. Nouns in tip, G. epog, by syncope poQ, make the dative plural in
acri, as from Trarr/p, irarpdai. So dpijv has apvdai, vitvq, a son, vidai; but yaoTTjp, yaoriipai,
<Tarr/p, (rwr/Jptrc.
5. The poets often form the dative plural from the dative singular, by changing i into eat or f(7(rt,
as D. sing. ?}pai to a hero, D. plui*. rjpwtai or ripuiaai.
-'.). Contractions in this declension are of two kinds. The first in the nominative, as well as in all
the other cases, without changing the natural terminations, as in the two first declensions. Thus
N. Xaag, Xdg, a stone, G. Xdaog, Xao, &c. ; N. r/ daiQ, dg, a torch, G. daiSoQ, dyfioQ, &c. ; N. rb

f eg, tag, into fig ta into i, and lag into it;
; vtg, uag into VQ ; ; ;
Nouns in TJQ, og, and eg are contracted in all cases that can admit of contraction.
1. And note,
that some nouns in TJQ are masculine, others feminine nouns in og and eg neuter only. ;
. The compounds
of sXeog are doubly contracted, as N. 6 'Hpa/cX-ET/g, rjg, G. eeog, eovg, and
eog, [observe also, that, in neuters, if a vowel precedes t a, it is contracted only into a, not i], as ra

33. In all the declensions of substantives 1. The nominative, accusative, and vocative dual are
always alike ; so the genitive and dative dual. 2. In the plural the nominative and vocative are
always alike ; and the genitive always ends in uv. 3. In every number the nominative, accusative,
and vocative of neuter nouns are always the same, and in the plural these cases, if uncontracted,
always end in a, except in Attic nouns of the second declension in wv. See above, Rule 16.

J. Nouns signifying males, winds, months, and rirers, are generally masculine.
:i. Nouns signifying females, countries, islands, cities, trees, and plants, are for the most part feminine.
4. Nouns referring to both sexes are common, as 6 /ecu / TrapOtvoe a virgin.
5. In the first declension, nouns in rj and a are feminine, in TJQ and erg masculine (as in sect. iii.
5). fi. In the second declension, nouns in og (and IOQ) are masculine, and sometimes feminine or
eummon.
7. Nouns in ov are neuter, whatever they signify, as TO icopdatov a damsel, TO OvyaTpiov a little
8. Nouns of the third declension in v, , p, ^/, ag -airog, TJQ, g, fVQ, ovg, wg, are generally mas-
culine ;

2. Feminine from masculines of the first declension in rjg end in ig, rpta, or rpig,
substantives
as if prophetess, 77 TroiffTpta a poetess, rj avXrjTpig a minstreless, from 6 TrpotyrjTTjg, 6
TrpotyfJTig a
TrotrjTTjg, 6 avXrjrrig. From masculines of the second they end in a, ivrj, or aiva, as 0t a a goddess,
SovXij a female slave, larpivrj a female physician, \uKatva a she-wolf, from their masculines Qtog,
HovXog, larpog, XvKog. From masculines of the third they often end in aiva, aava, tia, as Xsaiva
a lioness, avaaaa a queen, Itptia a priestess, from 6 Xecjv a lion, 6 dva% a king, 6 itptvg a priest.
Patronymics (from irarpbg ovopa, the name of a father) are names which the poets give to per-
3.
sons from their fathers or ancestors, thus Tlri\tiSr)r is the son of Peleus, 'ArpeiSrjg tJte son of Atreus,
HpaK\tidr)Q a descendant of Hercules. 1. Masculine patronymics end in adrjg, iSrjg, or ladrjg ; for
1. From primitive proper names of the first declension in ag or rjg, or of the second in tog, come
genitive is long, the last syllable may be changed into taSrjg, as 'Ay^icr-ta^c;, 'ATXavT-idSrjg, from
'Ayxitr-r/e, ov ; "ArX-c, avroq. So from IljyXtug, -!o, Ionic -TIOQ, comes HqXt-idrjg, by crasis
TLrjXeidrjQ, and Ionic ~nr}\TJiadr)Q. 2. Feminine patronymics end in a, tf, T/'if, tv?;, or WVT; for ;
1. From masculine patronymics in adrjQ and i/e, by leaving out drj, come ag and ig, as 'HXia^ and
Kafyue, from 'HXta'^c and KaSfjiidrjg ; but the poets often insert rj, as Kadprjig, Bpianig, ~Kpv<rntQ.
2. Feminine patronymics from primitive nouns of the second and fAird declension with the last syllable
2
in/pure end in ivr\, with the last syllable pure in wi/jj ; as 'AdpaaT-ivr), Nj/p-iv^, from *A.pa<7r-o,
Nrjp-tvQ ; and 'AKpiffi-wv)?, 'Hfrt-wv;, from 'A/cpi<n-o, 'Hm-wv. Note, patronymics in STJQ and i/q
are of the first declension, but in <*)v, aq, and IQ of the third.
4. G-entiles, or the names of townsmen, end generally in rqg, iog toe, l vGi r U C > as STraprtarjjg, ,
l
'A0;vatog, Ba/3uXwvtoc, 'P^ylvoc, 'AXe^av^pevc from the cities STra'pr?/, 'AQijvai, Ba(3v\ojv, Prj-

yiov, A\t%a.vdpia. Feminines end often in oaa, as Kp^crtra, KiXicro-a, from Kpi^r?;, KtXtKta ; and
sometimes in ia, from masculines in tog, as 'A9rjvaia, &c.
5. Possessives, or adjectives expressing possession or relation, are derived both from proper names
and appellatives, and end in eog, tog, eiog, Kog, vog, or wdqg ; as 'EKroptog. Trarptaiog, 'A^iXXeiog,
(Jiovaiicog, dvOpwTrivog, \i6tijSrjg, from"EKrwp, Trarrjp, 'A%iX\tvg, fj,ovffa, avOpwrrog, XiBog.
6. Amplificatires increase the signification, and end in og, tag, or wv, as apveiog afall-groicn lamb,
from dpg a lamb ; Traidvog a great boy, a lad, from nalg a boy ; TrotytDviag a man with a great beard,
from Trwywv a beard; oron'iag one with a large mouth, from oro/ia a mouth ; ^eiXtuv blubber-lipped,
from %tiXog a lip.
7. Diminutives are derived both from proper names and from appellatives. 1. Masculines gene-
rally end in a>v, a%, aieog, Xog, vg, as juwpiatv a fool, from putpog, Xida% a little stone, from Xi9og,
dvOpuTriffKog a little man, a manikin, from avQpatirog, IpwTvXog a little love, from tpatg, wrot,

SECTION VII.
OF ADJECTIVES AND THEIR DECLENSIONS.
1. A Nor.v aifj,'ctire, or more properly an adjective , so called because adjectitious, or added to a
1
substantive, denotes some quality of the substantive to which it is joined ; so in the expressions
y0of avQpwTroQ a good man, Ka\Tj yvvn a fair woman, /xlyaj oijcog a great house, the words good,
fair, and ijreat are adjectives.
2. Adjectives are declined in a three-fold manner, that is, either by three terminations, or two, or
one.
M. EI2 like the 3rd, F. ESSA like the 1st,N. EN like the 3rd, as gaping gracious.
Sing. N. Xapi-i, ff<ra, ev, G. evTog, kaarjg, svTog, &c.
Note, ofv, are contracted into ovg, ovffa, ouv, as /Xir6-fig, cue (honeyed) ; otffaa,
ofig, otwa,
oiiffffa ; ov, our, &c.
rya^ , 17? aaa, v\iv, into r;, rjaaa, ijv, as ri/iTj-fif, 775 (honourable) ; rjtoffa, rjaaa ;
:
r7v, T}V : (comp. sect. iii. 29.) And observe further, that participles in ttg form their feminine in
tiaa, as TvtyOtig beaten, tlaa, kv, G. kvTog, tiorjg, kvTog.
M. QS like the 3rd, F. VIA like the 1st, N. OS like the 3rd, as participle Tervfug having beaten.
12. These adjectives make their genitives respectively in ou, w, avTog, eog, OVQ, ITOQ, oSog, vog,
ivog, ovog, as substantives of the like terminations.
13. Most derivative and compound adjectives in OQ are thus declined with two terminations, and
thus the Attics decline all adjectives in og. Some adjectives are declined both with two and with
three terminations, as alwvi-og, a, ov, and 6 Kal aiwvt-og, Kal TO ov, Ttp-rjv, nva, tv, and 6 Kal

14.N. B. The learner, in declining the above adjectives, should repeat the proper articles with every

SECTION VIII.
OF THE COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES, &c.
1. ADJECTIVES in Greek, as in English, have three degrees of comparison: the positive, as the
great ;
or more great, of two ; the superlative, as greatest, or wos
comparative, as greater, ^ratf, of many.
2. Adjectives in oc, after a long* syllable, form their comparative aud superlative by changing oc
into OTIOOQ, and orarof, as pos. tvoo%,o compar. 6vo6rfpog nobler, superl. kvooZorctTog
noble,
nobl'^t ; after a *$or 2 and wrarof, as pos. aofyoG wise, compar. (ro^oJrepof wiser,
into u>rcpo
syllable,
superl. <ro0(Jraro ?ris^. But if the preceding syllable be doubtful, the comparative and superlative
are formed either in ortpof and orarof. or in wrtpof and wrarog, as Zcrot; or I<JOQ equal, compar.
and superl. iVorepog and ioorarog, or iauTtpoz and iWrarog.
3. Adjectives in etc, to form the comparative and superlative, change that syllable into
e<rrpo<;
and f ararog in if, ap, and ovg, take Ttpog and rarof in ?;, VQ, and a?, add to their neuters rspog
; ;
and TUTOQ ; in jv and wv add to their nominatives plural TSQOQ and rarog; in change of of their
genitive singular into tartaoQ and

In the same verb, the different forms of the future cannot be distinguished more than these
of the aorists, except the 3rd fut. pass., which has the same relation to the other futures as the
rr to the aorist. This tense properly marks a future action, the beginning of which, however,
in regard to time, is past, but the consequences of which continue. Thus, /i/zt'erai i a9\a KctKoiatv,

2-2. The Attics prefix to verbs beginning with o or o>, and preserve the breathing of the theme,
opdw, fwpaov.
23. The Attics also change the syllabic augment into the temporal, as from n'tXXio, tptXXov,
Attic //Lt\\ov.
o intow and the i of the diphthongs is subscribed ; as djcouw, T/KOVOV ; ipeidw, ijaddov opurrw,

considerable doubt ; the change is often made in the editions, but with no consistency in the MSS.]

28. Four verbs beginning with a have no augment, aw to breathe, aov ; diio to hear, d'iov ; aTjOtaao)
to be unaccustomed, di'iOtcrcFov; and drjdi^op,ai to be tired, drjdi^ofj.ijv.

30. E before o is not changed, but the o is changed into w, as toprdw, !opraov.
31. Some verbs beginning with ot have no augment, particularly those derived from olvoQ wine,
oiuvoq a bird, ola% a helm.
32. Compound verbs have the augment in the middle if they begin with a preposition, or with
?vg and eu before a changeable vowel or diphthong, as jcaraytj/wo'icw to condemn, KartyivtuffKov ;
yjcara\i7ra> to forsake, iyKa.Tt\inrov; dwcnrKTrew to disbelieve, dvariTriaTtov; tvepytrw, tvrjp-
ytrtov.
33. (Except a few in which the preposition does not change the sense of the word, as KaOevdw to
sdQtvdov ; or where the simple verb is out of use, as ajm/3o\(> to intercede, rivrifioXtov.)
34. All other compounds have the augment in the beginning, as 0tXo<ro0w to
philosophize, 0iXo-
<r60ovj avro/zoXsw to desert, rjvTO[j.6Xeov ; 6/io0povia> to agree, wjuo0pdvov; d^povew to be unwise,
35. Some both in the beginning and in the middle, as tj/oxXfw to disturb,

Prepositions in composition with a verb beginning with a vowel lose their final vowel, as
-acxiKovw, traprjKovov (except iripi, vrpo, and sometimes d/i^t, and ETTI) ; and if the verb begins
with nn aspirate breathing, the prepositions change their last tenuis into its
corresponding aspirate,
as in d(t>aipi.(i), compounded of cnro and
atpo>, e^torty/a of ?ri and 'IffTTj/ni.

OF THE FUTURE.
38. [The no doubt, kaia in all cases. Then in some words
original termination of the future was,
(, and was rejected, partly for euphony, partly, it may be, to distinguish different
in others a
senses of the same word ; and thus two forms of the future arose.]
[Verbs, whose characteristic is X, have partly the 1st, partly the 2nd form of the future. Thus
(1) ZXaw, (tXvai, II. A. 409.) from tXa> ; and (2) trrfXsw, from orsXXw.J
[Verbs, whose characteristics are /* and v, have regularly the 2nd form.]
[The Attics, especially, contract this form to> into w. They do this exclusively in verbs whose
characteristic is X, p, v, p ; in the rest they have generally <r, but in the futures in aao), tao>, i<rw, and
6ff<
they frequently reject the v and contract the remainder, as KaXoi, oucriw, &c.]
[Hence, as from the first form terw arose two new forms, the one in o-w, the other in sw, S>, the
latter being chiefly used in verbs whose characteristic is X, p., v, p, the former in the rest, the
grammarians have chosen to suppose the existence of two futures in each verb, deriving this latter
form from the 2nd aorist but this is entirely false. The foregoing remarks will sufficiently
;
illustrate the reasons for the following rules, as, for instance, in the case of TVTTTW, TVKT'I(J(>), TVTTTGU,
TVI//W.] The future is formed from the present by changing the characteristics
of the first class into ^/, as TVTTTU), TV\^U> ;
and by adding to the characteristics of the fourth class w circumflexed, as VE/IW, vep.^. (Comp.
above, 17, 4.)
39. [So- and TT are considered as y, K, %, and have in the future, as rapdo-erw, rapda>, but]
some verbs form their fut. in trw, as dypwao-w, aypw<ra> and many in w, in f w, as a/dw, atdu> ; ;
and some of these latter in yo;, as icXaw to clang, KXdyu>. ['Ap7raw, 7rafw, and <rvp/w, have
both forms, in % and in o\]
40. The penultima 2 of the fut. is commonly long, except in the first class of characteristics, where it
is always short, and is made so either by striking out the second of two consonants, as rifjivoi, re/ciw ;
41. Four first futures change the breathing of the present, as 0ptw from rpx w to run;
r
from rp0w to nourish ; 0tn//ui from ri50o> to smoke ; w from t^w to have. The three last are thus
distinguished from the 1st futures of rp7rw to turn, of TVTTTU) to smite, and from the adverb to>
without, respectively.
42. Katw or Kp'w to burn, K\aiu) or K\^ID to weep, change in the 1st future t into v, as
44. The penultima of the first aorist is commonly long, and therefore, in verbs with the fourth
class of characteristics, a of the first future is changed into ij 3 , as i^aXw, t^rj\a ; c into tt, as a7Tfpa>,
tffiriioa and a doubtful vowel is used long, as fcptvo), ticpiva.
;
45. A few first aorists do not preserve the characteristic of the first future, as tOijica I placed,
cSwica I gave, fjica I sent, tiira I said, fjveyKa I brought, tKya I burnt. [Some of these were probably
originally perfects.}
OF THE PRETER-PERFECT.
46. The preter-perfect is formed from the first future by changing
in the first class of characteristics ;//u>
into 0a,
in the second, o> into x>
in the third, CTW into /ca,
in the fourth, w into Ka,
before a liquid, the first letter of the theme must be repeated before the augment, as rv^/w, rirvQa ;
, ygypa^a
but a tenuis 5 is prefixed instead of an aspirate, as 0y<ra>, rkQvKa and to a double

1
[In verbs pure, when a diphthong precedes, the rule holds, as o-ei'-w <rc/-treo. But verbs in ew, d&>, oo>, vta, take

eoraX/eo.
49. Verbs of two syllables in eivio, irw, and vvu cast away v of the future from the perfect, as
Krti'vw, K-tvw, tKTOKa ; Ovvu, Ovvu, rkQvKa. Others change v - into y, as 0atVw, 0avai, 7T0ayca ;
fioXvvu, fioXvvu, /if/uoXvyica.

OF THE PRETER-PLUPERFECT.
51. The preter-pluperfect is formed from the perfect by changing a into v, and prefixing if
trpairov except in tXtyov from Xyw, tfiXtirov from /SXtTrw, I^Afyov from 0Xsy<o. Eu is changed

into u, as Qivya), ttyvyov ; and ou into o, as O.KOVU, TJKOOV. Ei is changed into t, as XfiVw, tXtTrov ;
but in the fourth class, verbs of two syllables change ft into a, as (TTT*

1. As in English we have no passive voice but what is made of the participle passive joined to
the auxiliary verb to be throughout all its variations, as / am smitten, I was smitten, I hate been

the verb eifii to be.

EXCEPTIONS.
10. Except, in the third class, some verbs in w JPWA?, which make the perfect in er/iat, although
the penultima of the perfect active be long, as r/jcowr/tat, from OKOUW to Aear, Keicpovff^ai from Kpoixo
to knock, tTTTaifffiai from Trrafw to stumble, KEKsXtvapai from KtXtuw to orrfer, Kc\i(T/Ltai from icXcc'ci*
to /m*, <T(T6i(T^ai from acfw to sAafe, tyvoj0p.ai from yvoa> to ^now, TtOpavafjiai from Ooavtt) to break.
11. In the second and third class the penultima fu drops its f, as in 7r0uy/iai from 0uya> to flee,
Ki-^v^Lai from %w, xv<Ta to pour.
12. From verbs in atvw and vvw the Attics form the perfect passive in (r/iat, as irtyaffpai from
0ati/w, /tfi6Xu(T/xat from fjioXvva).
13. In the first class, verbs of two syllables, which have rp in the penultima, change into a, as
orpt^o) to tarn about, tarptQa, f(TTpap.p.ai; rp7ra>, TETpttya, rlrpa/i/xat; rpf^w, rkroi^a, r0pa/i/iat.
Observe, this last resumes the of the 1st future active, to distinguish it from the perfect passive
of rpsTrw.
14. The persons of the perfect are not in all verbs formed as in rfiru/ificu,
but variously in
different verbs, as follows :
The changed before ^at, aat, and rat for Terv<j>p,ai, TervQffai,
characteristic of the perf. act. is thus :
TtTV<f>rai are used rsrv/ijuai, reru^at, reruTrrai, &c. for rerfp^/iat, rlrfp^xrat, rerfp^rai are used
;
For -xnai, -x<*cu, and -\rai are put -y/*at, -%ai, and -Krai, as XtXfy/iat, XgXfgat, XsXsicrai, from
Xlyw.
/ <7i third class,
For -tytai, -K<rat, and -/crat are put -<r/uat, -aai, and -<mu, as 7rs7r<7fiai, Trtirtiaat., TrlTmorat, from
7TU0W.
/?i /t<?
fourth class,
The characteristic of the perf. act. is altogether omitted, as in ti//aX/iai, tyaXcai, ttyaXrat, from
but TTE^aoyiat, irttyavtrai, Trs
15. M
before p.ai in the first class, y before fiai in the second, and <r before /iai in the third, are
preserved in the first person dual and plural ', as in TtTvpiit-Qov and -Qa from nrv/ipai XtXey/uf- ;
0ov and -Qa from \e\eyfj.ai ; TTtTrticrnt-Oov and -0a from TTETracr/zat.
16. In the second and third person dual and in the second plural the tenues of the third person
singular are changed into their aspirates, as from reruTrrai, rkrvtyQov, rsTV<j)9e from \k\iKrai, ;
\k\t\Bov, \e.\*x9e ; from irk^avrai, irkfyavQov, irtyavOe. But if the third pers. sing, end in rat
pure, then a is inserted before Qov and Qt thus from vevf/jirjTai, vtvffirjaOov, vevkfjirjaOe.
;
17. The
third person plural is formed from the 3rd person singular, if it end in rat pure, by
inserting v before rat, as from /cl/cpirai, KtKpivrai.
N. B. It would be very proper for the learner in this place to write out, according to llie above rules, the
perfect passive yeypa/i/tai from ypa^w, TTETrXey/uat from TrXt/cw, 7rsir\rjfffj.ai from 7rXr?0w, tff7raop.ai
from (TTTttpw, XsXw/zai from Xww, throughout all the persons and numbers.
18. The pluperfect is formed from the perfect by changing pai into fj,rjv and prefixing e if the
verb begin with a consonant, as rervmtat, irtrvp,fjir]v.
19. The persons of the pluperfect are formed after the analogy of the persons of the perfect,
preserving the terminations as in tTtrvfifujv.
20. So, as to the other moods, the perfect imperative derives its second person sing, from the
second person sing, of the indicative, as TETW^CH, rkrvfyo \k\s%ai, XsXf^o Kstcpitrai, KsKpivo its ; ; ;
other persons from the second pers. plural, as rkrvQQs, rru00w XsXtx^t, XcXsx^w ncicpiffOe, ; ;
KticpiffOd). Whence also may be deduced the perfect infinitive, as XtXix^at, KficpiaQai. The
perfect optative and subjunctive are most usually formed by the auxiliary tlrjv and o> ; but some-
times the optative is formed from the indicative by changing ;wai into /ir/v, as XeXw/tat, \f\v-
2
p.evoQ flrjv and \t\vfjLrjv vo, VTO, &c. a,
, o, take i before fj.t]v, as tKTajj,at, tKTaifiijv, aio, euro, &c.
,
Sometimes the perfect subjunctive is formed by changing the vowel of the indicative before pai into
<, as tKTctfjiai, tKTuifJiai.
21. The first aorist is formed from the third person singular of the perfect by changing at into
t]v, and tenues into their aspirates, and dropping the prefixed consonant, if any, as
22. Verbs which in the perfect had changed t into a, resume their e in the first aorist as ;
;
and those which had cast away v, poetically take it again, as 3 iic\iv9ijv for
23. Some first aorists in the penultima have r for 9 of the perfect, as trd^Orjv I was buried, from
$a7rrw, r!0a/i/iai ; BTQt<p9r)v I was nourished, from rpl^w, r0pa/t/iat, to prevent the disagreeable
concurrence of aspirates. Comp. p. 20, note 4.
24. Some assume a, as tfjLvrja9r)v from /is/i^jjrai
first aorists ;
and some reject it, as iou9ijv from

and some change i] into as f.vpi9rjv from ivprjrai.

SECTION XVIII.
1. AN adverb isan indeclinable particle added to a verb (ad verbum) or adjective, "to denote
some modification or circumstance of an action or quality," as KaXwg well, in KaXtig avayivutOKti he
reads well.
2. AdverbsGreek are either primitive, as vvv now ; or derivative, either from nouns, as TTUVV
in
altogether, ; or from verbs, as avatyavdd openly, Kpvfidrjv secretly.
avdpiaTi manfully
3. Adverbs in u>e are derived from [the nominatives of adjectives in of], and the genitives of
adjectives [which increase] by changing og into wg, as from a\?0wj/, d\rjQu> truly; from 6tw/,
6&<DQ sharply.
4. Some adverbs form degrees of comparison, thus :
1. When
the positive adverb is formed [as in 3.] the comparative adverb is [similarly]
formed from the comparative, and the superlative from the superlative, by changing v into ,
thus :
fi. The
syllabic adjections, St, at, t, denote to a place, as olxaSe (to) home, ovpavoae into heaven,
'A9r]vai Athens ; Otv and Ot from a place, as obpavoOe from heaven ; 61, 01, at,

OF INTERJECTIONS.
10. Under adverbs Greek are comprehended interjections, that is, words tin-own into (interjeeta
in
in) a sentence to express some emotion of mind, as of joy, lov, ho! of grief, lov, iw, o/i/ of laughter,
i'i. <<, //(/..' /< / //(/ / of approving, tia brave ! tiiys icell done! of condemning, w, Qtv, fye ! of

SECTION XIX.
OF CONJUNCTIONS.
1. A CONJUNCTION is an indeclinable particle that joins together (conjungit) sentences and sometimes
tingle words l .
2. In Greek they may be distinguished into
1
Copulative, as /ecu, rs, and, also, &c.
.
SECTION XX,
OF PREPOSITIONS.
1. A PREPOSITION is an indeclinable particle put before (prseposita) verbs in composition, and nouns
in construction.
" Most and have been thence transferred
2. prepositions originally denote the relation of place, to
2
denote, by similitude, other relations ."
3. prepositions in Greek are usually reckoned eighteen, of which six are of one syllable, KLQ
The
into, tK ! out of, sv in, irpo before, Trpog to, avv with; and twelve of two syllables, apty'i round
or
about, avd through, dvri instead of, cnrofrom, did by, irri in, upon, tcard according to, (JLtrd with, irapd
from, at, irtpi concerning, about, VTTBO above, orer, VTTO under.
4. The prepositions, and their various uses, both in construction and composition, are so fully
explained in the ensuing Lexicon, that I forbear saying any thing more of them in this place, only
that a/z0t about, concerning, near, (not used in the New Testament,) is in the Greek writers joined
with three cases, the genitive, dative, and accusative.
SECTION XXI.
OF SYNTAX, AND FIRST OF CONCORD.
1. SYNTAX, from the Greek word CVVTU^IQ composition,'^ that part of grammar which teaches how
to compose words properly in sentences.
2. Syntax may be distinguished into two parts, concord, or agreement ; and government. [The
following remarks deserve the attention of those who wish to have a clear notion of the elements of
the philosophy of grammar.]

Bishop Lowth's Introduction to English Grammar, p. 97, 2nd edit. But compare Encyclopaedia Britannica in
Grammar, No. 128, &c.
48 A PLAIN AND EASY SECT. xxi.
[In every proposition there must be at least two fundamental ideas: (1) The subject, i.e. the
thing or person of which any thing is asserted ; and (2) The predicate, i. e. that which is asserted of
that person or thing, or which, in other words, expresses the action or quality, the condition, which
is ascribed to the
subject. The subject and predicate ai'e connected, and thus formed into a pro-
position by the copula, which is always a verb. Sometimes the copula has a proper verb, as tlfii,
which contains no idea itself sometimes the copula and predicate are united in one verb, as in the
;
verbs which express a condition by themselves, as Kvpog TiBvrjKt, Cyrus is dead l Sometimes the .
condition or action expressed by the verb requires to be determined by a relation in which it stands
to a person or thing ; and hence arises the determination of the oblique cases which are governed
by the verb. Of this we shall speak below. The verb, whether it be the copula alone, or a copula
with the predicate, is determined as to person and number by the subject. Now in propositions
which are independent of any other, the subject is in the nominative (except in the case of the ace.
and intin.) ; and from the two last considerations arises what is called the first concord in common
grammar.]
OF THE FIRST CONCORD.
3. The verb agrees with its nominative case in number and person, as lyu> ypa^w / write, dvOpw-
TTOL X'eyovGt men say.
4 The nominative case to a verb is found by asking the question who ? or what ? with the verb?
as in the sentence just given ; men, answering to the question who say ? is the nominative case to the
verb say.
5. All nouns are of the third person, except such as are joined with the pronouns /, thou, we,
or ye.
6. A neuter noun plural has generally
2
a verb singular, as iravra tyiviro all things were made, um
rptxei animals run. [But even in Attic (in which this construction is most common) it often does
not take place, and especially when the neut. plur. signifies living persons, or even where animate
creatures are to be understood.]
7- Two or more nominatives, of whatever number, generally have a verb plural, and if the nomi-
3
natives differ in person, of the most worthy person, as airepfia icai Kap-rroQ
diatytpovai, seed and fruit
differ ;
av ra diicaia Troifjaofitv, I and thou will do right things. [But (1) their verb is not
tyw KCII
always in the plural, but is frequently governed by the nearest substantive, especially if this be
a singular, or a neuter plural, as in Homer, II. H. 386. rjvwyti UpiafjioQ re /cat aXXoi (see also Eur.
Supp. 146. Thuc. i. 29.); and sometimes when the sing, or neut. plur. is the more remote. We
may add, that a plural verb is often given to a dual subject, see II. E. 275. and sometimes a dual
verb to a plural subject, which only relates to two persons or things.]
8. A
noun of multitude, though singular in form, may have a verb plural, as Luke viii. 37,
rfpdjTrjaav avrbv airav TO TrXfiQoQ, all tlie multitude asked him. Comp. John vii. 49. and Rule 15.
below. [11. B. 278. Herod, ix. 23. This is done very often with sKaoTOf.]
9. A verb placed between two nominatives of different numbers may agree with either, as iQvog
12. [The adjective is properly determined in gender and number by (i. e. is in the same number
and gender as) the substantives with which it is put as an epithet or predicate. (It is an epithet
when, with the substantive, it constitutes a whole, which would be imperfect without it ; and a pre-

2
By no means always ; see Mark v. 13. John x. 27. 1 Cor. xii 25. James ii. 1!>. Rev. xviii. 23. xx. 12. We may
further observe, that nouns plural [and dual], both masculine and feminine, are likewise sometimes, though rarely,
joined with verbs singular in the best Greek writers. Thus Pindar, Ol. xi. 4, 5, /ueX^apuer v/j.voi iHTrepuv apx^i \6f<*v
TfcXXercu, the sweet hymns is the prelude to the discourses which follow; Plato, oi>< eo-nv o'l-rtvef u.Tce-o\nai fj.tr oaicav

there is not who abstain from feasts except the Cretans ; Aristotle, OVK ei/efe^n'/eTO rolr /uei/ ai Tpt'xes, TOIC 3t TU
Trrepa, on tome grew no hairs, on others no feathers. The author of the Port-Royal Grammar, who produces the pas-
sages just cited, accounts for this construction (book ix. rule 5.) by observing, that "such expressions are real syllepses,
(and the syllepsis is defined, book vii. ch. 7, to be a figure which marks some disproportion and disagreement in the
parts of a sentence,) for, as when we say turba ruunt,' the multitude rush, the verb is put in the plural, because we
'
apprehend a multitude by the word turba ; so when we say animalia currit' [u>a rpexei] the verb is put in the sin-
'
gular, by reason we conceive an universality by the word animalia' animals, as if it were omne animal currit,' er^-nj
' '
animal runs, or indefinitely 'animal currit.' an animal runs." Thus my author, who shows that similar phrases are
used both in the Latin and French languages I add, that so aie they likewise in Hebrew see Joel i. 20. Jer. xxxv.
; ;
it, in his Latin Grammar, p. 53. note, "/ and another are we, thou and another are ye; so that the verb agrees with
the first person rather than the second, and with the second rather than the third."

dicate, when a new determination is subjoined to a substantive considered as perfect.) Thus
XpriffTog dvrjp, 0'Xaif yvvai^lv.]
13. [But this rule is often violated; for the Greeks frequently refer adjectives to the substan-
tive only hi sense, and put them in the gender implied in the substantive. Thus, II. X. 84. 0iXc
TEKVOV, because T'IKVOV here implies a male. II. II. 280. 0dXayyt iXTrofjitvoi, because the troops
consisted of men.']
14. [Hence, a noun of number, singular, feminine, or neuter, has very often an adjective
masculine and plural, Luke ii. 13. 7r\rj9oQ orpanaf ovpaviov, alvovvTwv, a multitude of the heavenly

15. [But even without this reference to the sense the rule is violated ; the fern, dual is put with
the masculine, Thuc. v. 23. d/*0w rw TroXff ; the masc. with the fern, both singular and plural, Eur.

feminine, Find. 01. vi. 23. iirrd irvpdv TtXtoQevTwv .]
16. [The adjective, as a predicate, not an epithet, is often put in the neuter singular, when the
subject is masculine or feminine, or in the plural, as II. B. 204. OVK dyaObv TroXvKoipavirt, the rule
of the main/ w nut a good thine;. (See Virg. Eel. iii. 80. Mn. iv. 568.) See Mat. vi. 25. 34. 2 Cor. ii. 6.
Aristoph. Plut. 203. Long. 31, 32. Herod, ii. 68. Sometimes xpfj[J.a or KTf)fj,a, a thing, is joined to
the adjective so placed.]
17. [If adjectives refer to two or more substantives, and these are of the same gender, the
adjective is properly of this gender and number (yet very often in the neuter) ; but if they are of
different genders, then the neuter plural is put when the objects are inanimate, as Herod, ii. 132.
TOV avykva KOI TYJV KeQaXijv Ktxpvaiofitva ; but with animated beings, in the masculine, if one is
masculine, as Find. 01. ix. 66. Hvppa AtvicaXiwv re icara/3dj/rf ; and very frequently it is deter-
mined both in gender and number by one only of the substantives, Thuc. viii. 63. 2rpo/i/3ix^j;v KCU
Tag vaiiQ dirtXrjXvQoTa.']
18. The Greeks, considering the substantive very frequently as the whole, and the adjective as
the part, put the substantive in the genitive, and the adjective sometimes in the gender of the
substantive, as y9iwv XtKToi, for Xticroi yQtot, Soph. OZd. T. 18. xprjaToi TU>V dvBpdtTrwv the good of
men, i. e. such of men as are good ; and even in the singular, especially in Attic, TOV aiTov TOV
iJHiavv ; sometimes in the neuter, TO TroXXbv TTJ orpari/J^, Herod, viii. 100.]
[N.B. Adjectives are often put alone in the neuter gender, or stand as substantives for any
indefinite objects thought of and understood. Here the common grammars say there is an ellipse
of xp^a or xpr^ara.]
19. The
relative pronoun, OQ, ij, o, agrees with the substantive to which it refers, called its
antecedent, in gender, number, and person ; and if there be no nominative case between the relative
and the verb, the relative itself will be the nominative case to the verb, as /ia/cdpiof l<mi> 6 dvrjp
o IXTri^ei, blessed is the man who hopeth.
20. But
there be some other nominative case to the verb, the relative will, as to case, be
if
governed by the verb, or by some other word in the sentence, as paicdpiov TO tQvoQ ov KvpioQ b
6f6e i<TTf XaoQ ov IZtXtZaro, blessed (is) the nation whose God the Lord is, the people ^chom he hath
chosen. In this sentence the first relative ov is, as to case, governed by the noun 00j (comp. rule
32.) the second relative ov by the verb l%fXkZaro, (comp. rule 43.)
21. But observe that the relative and antecedent in Greek are often put in the same case, as
f-TrtaTivoav T<$ Xoyy $ (for ov) ILTTIV, they believed the word which he spake. John ii. 22.
22. Two
or more antecedents generally have a relative plural, agreeing in gender and person
with the most worthy, as dvrjp icai yvvf) 01 dyaTrcDtn TOV Qibv, a man and a woman who love God 2 .
23. A relative between two antecedents of different genders or numbers may agree with either,
as Lucian, TroXae elaiv OVQ (fxuXfovs ro|tag, those are cities which you take for caves. Gal. iii. 16. r<
airfpnaTi oov, OQ tffTi Xpiorog, to thy seed, which is Christ. Eph. iii. 13. ratf OXtyeai pov, i'jTig iorl
coKa vfiuiv, my afflictions, ichich
are your glory.
24. Aurog, OVTOQ, IKIIVOS, oaoQ how many, r/Xiicog as great, oloQ of such kind, also TTOGOI how many,
TTCHTOQ of what number, &c. TrorairoQ of what country, TroaairXovQ and -rroffaTrXdffioQ of how many
fold, are sometimes used after the manner of the relative, as iXetydvTwv epfipvov (tort) /Xticov
(tffri) /io<Txoe, tfie fetus of elepliants
is as
big as a calf; xapio/ievo ot'y aoi dvdpi, obliging such a man
as you.
25. Relatives often agree with their antecedents, not as to their gender, but as to their sense, as
Mat. xxviii. 19. IQvr] O.VTOVQ. Rom. ii. 14. tOvij OVTOI. Col. ii. 19. TIJV Ke<paXr)v, i% ov. Rev.

16. So in Latin, Terence, Andr. iii. 5, 1. Scelus, qui me perdidit. Horace,

[The Greek tragedians use the masculine for the feminine, when the plural instead of the singular of a female is
used, and when a chorus of women speaks of themselves.]

[See 7. on Adj. Most of the same observations apply to the relative.]
D
50 A PLAIN AND EASY SKCT. xxi.
2C. relative is often put before the antecedent, especially when in the same case, as John
The
xi. 6. tutivev iv$ i]v Tony, he stayed in the place in which he teas. [In fact it puts the noun often
into its own case, as Xen. Anab. i. 9, 11. a riva bpyrj KaraaKtva^ovra TIQ apxoi x^P a > f r i"n v
X&pav rjg apxoi. Hence, the nouns which should precede the relative, with a demonstrative pro-
noun or adjective, in the same case with these, are frequently referred to the relative, as Soph.
(Ed. C. 907. O'VQ Trtp ourog TOVQ vofjLOvg tlarjXB' t-^^v, TOVTOIGIV dpnocrOfjfftTai and this construc- ',
tion is united with the preceding, ibid. 334. (ry\0ov) vv y?rp ix ov oUeT&v iriar^ povy. Some-
times the substantive, even when standing first, takes the case of the relative which follows, as
Herod, ii. 106, Tag arfjXae rdq terra 26<7wcrrpt, a! irXtvvtG ovKtri Qaivovrai Trepitovaai. So in
Virg. Urbem, quam statuo, vestra est.]
27. A verb, an adjective, or a relative, sometimes agrees with a preceding
infinitive mood, or
a sentence ; and in such instances the verb is put in the third person, and the adjective or relative
in the neuter gender, as Zvptiv rbv Xtovra OVK lanv da^aX't^, to shear a lion is not safe; /u>)
in which (being drunk with wine
piOvaKtaQe o'lvy, iv (neut.) ivriv dffwria, be not drunk with wine,
<
namely) If profligacy. Eph. v. 18. [We may add also, that very frequently the relative refers to
a thing generally, and is then also put in the neuter, as in Soph. (Ed. T. 542. Tvpavvida Orjpav o
irXriQti dXiaKtrai, a thing which.]
OF GOVERNMENT.
28. Government is that part of syntax which respects the cases of nouns and pronouns.
OF APPOSITION.
KvvwTTiOoi;: and so in adjectives derived from proper names, where the proper name includes
a definition, II. B. 54. Ntorops^ Trapd vrjl TIv\r)ytv0 pamXrjoG, the ship of Nestor, the king, &c.]
30. Two or more substantives belonging to the same thing are put in the same case by apposition,
"
as ITauXof a7ro<JToXo, Paul an apostle ; Tip.o9k^t TtKvqt, to Timothy (my) son ; A.OOJTTOQ TroAif, the
toicn Asopus.
31. The proper name of a place, particularly of a town, is sometimes put with its appellative in
the genitive, as 'AQrjvuJv 7ro\i, the city of Athens.
[32. (a) Verbs not constituting a complete predicate, but requiring another word, are generally
the passives signifying to be called, named, or chosen for any thing, to appear, to be considered, to be
known. There are also some not passive, signifying being or becoming, or conveying the same idea as
ei'/it, n'evio, irtfyvKa, KarkaTrjv, &c., and these all have the additional word in the nominative.]
[(6) Hence also with dieouw, when signifying to be called, and with ovo^d kari nvi and ovopa
t
x, referring to a subject, the nominative is put. The additional words may be either substantives
or adjectives.]
[(c) With verbs also which have a perfect signification, a second nominative is put as a predicate
to be explained by we as. Thus Soph. El. 130. rJKfre -jrapap-vQiov, ye are come as a comfort.]
[(d) A more precise definition is sometimes in the nominative, dtita pvai tiatyopd, ten mince as
tribute.]
[(e) The nominative is used also in exclamations.]
ON THE GENITIVE.
[N.B. The other relations which the verb in the predicate requires to be adjoined, either accord-
ing to its nature, or in certain combinations, are expressed by what ai'e called the oblique cases,
i. e. those which must be dependent on other words.]
[33. The genitive may stand not only with the predicate, but with any word of the proposition,
and expresses relation in general. Each idea of relation takes the noun by which this relation is
determined in the genitive.]
[34. In many cases where the substantive is
joined with others in the genitive, in the question
whose, the Greek agrees with the Latin and English. The most common case is when the
genitive
the thing or person in which another is, or which
signifies belongs to another, as the subject of the
SECT. xxi. GREEK GRAMMAR. 51
[A. To words of all kinds other words are added in the genitive, which show the respect in which
the sense of those words must be taken the genitive then signifies with regard to.]
;
[() Thus with r<rbs; in the phrases wg, OTTHJS, TT&Q, OVTUQ l\u, to be qualified or endowed in any
way ; a> TIQ tvvoiaQ 77 /xi/q/iijg %, as each was with respect to benevolence or memory, i. e. as each
willed well to a parti/, or remembered the past ; KaXw t^tiv piQije, to be pretty well as to drunkenness,
i. e. to be pretty drunk.]
[(6) And with other verbs, l-n-fiyeaOai dprjoQ,
to be in haste with respect to the battle; oQaXXeaQai
[(6) Words which express a situation or operation of the mind, a judgment of the understanding
which is directed to an object without affecting it. Thus the adjectives experienced, ignorant,
remembering, desirous, as rijg QvaiaQ OVK ddarjQ, dXX' tfj.7rtipoQ, not ignorant with respect to the sacri-
1
fice, but experienced .]
[And the verbs or forget, to remind, to be careful or careless (with the adjective
to recollect and sub-
stantive corresponding to them), to consider, reflect, understand, or long for any thing, as
2
WvrjffavOs d\KrJG , be mindful as to courage, i. e. remember your courage.
3
KvicXuTTEG Atoc OVK dXsyoucrij/, are careless as to Jupiter .

"K aQovTo
t TtixiZ,6vT<*>v, they perceived them fortifying .
M*} /titydXwv not to be desirous of great things, not eager with
fc7ri0?.'jUT*>, respect to.]
[Hence also verbs of sense take a genitive, as r^t; ^vfJQ O.KOVOJ, I hear the voice,
many and O>Q
oaippavTo T&V KapriXuv, when tJtey smelt the camels.]
[(c) Words which indicate fulness or deficiency, because the word which shows of what any thing is
full or empty, shows the respect in which the signification of the governing word must be taken.
Thus in adjectives :
1
[Sometimes these adjectives take rrept' with a genitive, and sometimes the accusative; 6 rat/r' eirt<T-rtjfji<av, he who
knew or was acquainted with these things.]
2
[These verbs have sometimes the genitive with nepi, sometimes the accusative, as Tu<5ea ov /jiffju/m^at.]
3
[<t>ei'do/ua< to spare,
and QvXd^onai to guard, both contain the idea to be careful about, and therefore tak<*
the genitive.]
4
[Both these classes of verbs take the accusative also.]
Z>2
52 A PLAIN AND EASY SECT. xxi.
[Let it be remarked, (1.) that although every word cannot be instanced, the principle here
noticed explains many constructions ; (2.) that verbs in their derivative sense, though perhaps not
having the same reference, retain the construction admitted in their proper sense ; (3.) that sub-
stantives and adverbs having the same significations as the above adjectives, admit the genitive, as
iiXiQ TU>V TtOvTjKorwv, enough of dead persons ; x<apie, &c -
5 (<*) tnat s <> me of these words occasionally
admit other constructions.]
[(<?)This signification, with respect to, shows why the comparative and words involving a comparison
require the genitive.
V 7rarpo, greater with respect to his father.
poQ ovdtvog, second with regard to none.
i7ri9vfj.ia>v i/TTdjfJievovQ, overcome by their passions, i. e. worsted, made inferior to.]
[In the following verbs a comparison is also implied, though indirectly.
[(1.) To surpass or to be surpassed by, as
Htpiyevoto av rjjjg TOV fiaaiXetoQ dwdptiDQ, you would surpass the king's power.
'ATroXt'iTTtrai 'AXt^dvSpov, he is inferior to Alexander.]
[C. The second great relation expressed by the genitive is that of a whole toits parts and ; this
is common in other languages, as fig TOVTWV, unus horum, &c. Observe these cases: (a) with art.
and TWV OVTWV TO. (iev iaTiv OVK rifur, of all things existing, some are in

account in the genitive, rpoxog T&V a wlwel of the class of the i. e. an earthen

[(c) With verbs ; (1.) with dvai, as avTOQ ijOtXt rStv ptvovTiov tlvai, one of those who remained at
home (where tig is often added) ; and (2.) with verbs of all kinds, when the action refers to a part

only of the object, as !rjuov TTJC yf/f, laid waste a part of the country; Xafiovra T&V ratviwv, some
(.- nitc) of
other leaders, i. e. taking other leaders; (and hence the same verbs have the gen. with other
meanings, as to blame; tTrtXdjSfro TOV ^rj(pi<ruaTOQ, blamed the decree ;) 6/i0a avrov, we shall keep
hold of him; Xiju?}v t%rai TOV a rjnaTOZ, borders on ; rfjg avTtJQ yi/w/i?j in; uTr-taOai
t^ojuai, persevere
avT&v, to touch them ; whence other verbs of touching, as \^avw, Oiyydvw, have a gen. The part
seized is often in the gen. with these verbs, l\d(3ovTo Trjg wv?;e TOV OpovTqv, took him by the girdle.
Hence, perhaps, the verbs of contrary sense, to let go, to miss, &c., have the gen., and these are
usually middle verbs ; rtjs ^aidoQ ov usQrjaouat, I icill not let the girl go ; so dfy'itvQai (the actives of
both verbs have the ace.), TrpoiccrOat, d/zaprdvtiv.]
[(/) The substantive marking the class from which the superlative takes the chiefest as a part,
is in the genitive ; //
jUfyi'crrr;
rwv voaiov dvaiStia, impudence is the greatest of diseases : and hence
the gen. is put with verbs, adjectives, and adverbs, derived from superlatives, or expressing pre-
ferableness ; TTCLVTIDV StatrpkTrtiQ, you excel all, i. e. are the first of all ; flirtTrptTrag OvrjT&v tQvvav,
and e?o%a TTCLVTUV, chiefly of all.}
[36. D. The genitive marks the person or thing to which any thing belongs, whether property,
quality, habit, duty, &c., and those from which any thing arises. Probably there is here the notion
of the relation of the quality, &c., to its possessor.]
[(a ) Property, rd TUIV OIKOVVTWV TI]V iro\iv oiKtia T&V KaXw fiaviXf VOVTUV tari, the property of
the citizens belongs to good kings. So ISiOQ, &c., and itpog ; as ttpoe TOV NfiXov, sacred to the Nile,
i. e. made his sacred Elvai, yiyvtaQai especially signify to belong to ; lori TOV fia<n\r]OQ,
property.
it is the
king's ; tavrov dvai, to be his own master; ton TOV XsyovTog, he gives himself up to the
speaker. Elvai also expresses quality, power, custom, duty, &c. (aVoiac <TTt, it is the quality or part
of folly TroXXov TTOVOV sort, it is a business of great labour) ; ability, (TTUVTOQ dvdpos IGTIV
;
iicXk^affOai, every one can tell) ; habit or part, tariv dpa diicaiov dvdpog ; is it the part of a just
man ?]
[(6) Thegen. with demonstrative pronouns shows in whom a quality is found, as OVK dya/^at TOVT
'
d dptaTeu), I do not approve this in a prince; TOVTO iiraivti AyrjfftXdov, I praise this in
Agesilaus. So OavfidZu, &c. ; and hence these verbs have sometimes a gen. of the object ; aov
9avnd(t), I wonder at you ; dyajjiai TTJQ dptTrj^, I admire their virtue.]
[(c) The gen. again expresses the person or thing from which any thing proceeds: i}Kovaa. TOV
dyylXou, I heard from the messenger ; fiaOovTfg TOV /caraoTcoTrou, having learnt from the. spy ; Trarpof
tykviTo Kaftftvaov, he was born from Cambyses as his father.]
[(d) The gen. expresses the material from which the thing is made, as GTifyavoQ Trofag, a crown of
herb.]
[(e) And the author of what is implied in the substantive, "Hpag dXartlai. the wanderings (of lo)
caused by Juno.]
[37. E. The gen. is put with verbs compounded with prepositions which govern the gen. when
the prep, might be separated from the verb, and set before the case, without altering the meaning
of the verb, but not else ; e. g. we cannot say
dvTiXtytiv TIVOQ, to contradict any one; for Xtyeiv
CLVTI TIVOQ is, to speak in the
place of any one.]
[F. The
gen. determines place and time, in answer to where ? when ? &c.]
[ Where
? Xaiae
\tipog oiKOvaiv, on the left hand.]
[When? ij%6i fiatov %povov, he will come in a short time ; TOVTO tatTai ijfjitpaiv oXfywv, within
a few days; and this last signification is common.]
? TTO'IOV %p6vov
[Since iriiropOrjTai iroXig, since what time ?]
[I low long ? 2 trail/ aXovTOQ,for six years, during six years.]
[G. Lastly, the word governing the gen. is often omitted, as vibg, olicog, &c. QovicvdidriQ o
'OXopov, the son of; iv Kpoiaov, in the house of Croesus.]
ON THE DATIVE.
[38. The
dative in Greek (A), as in other
languages, answers to the question ctii 1 or to whom ?
as SiSovai TI TIVI, to give any thing to any one ; 0iXog TIVI, tjfQpOQ TIVI, &.C., friendly to any one, &c. ;
[(A) Hence also the dat. is often put for the gen. in other languages, and partly because the dat.
implies reference or respect to a thing ; for the Greeks understand a person or thing in relation
to the action expressed in the verb or
adjective, and others take it with relation to a substantive.
Thus SitairdaOrj avrolQ 77 rd^ig, tJieir ranks, $c. ; 'iXidg KaXov tvri iroirjua r<p 'O/iiijpy, Homer's
Iliad is, (f-c. ; Trarpy'a vfuv oiicia, your paternal house. Probably this relation is the basis of the
construction of tlvai, virapxtiv, &c. to be, with the dat., and of passives with the dat., instead of
VTTO and gen., as TsXXy TraldtQ rjaav, Tellus had children ; and
7rpo<77r6Xote QvXdaatrai, he is
guarded by his attendants.]
[(i)Again, the dat. expresses direction of an action to an object either real or imaginary, as 'AOffvy
XtipaQ dvtffxov, they lifted up their hands to Mi tier ra; and hence, verbs of j>r</i>>g, (as in prayer
the eyes or hands were lifted up,) of looking up to, (avaj3/\7rw, t/u/SXsTrw,) have a dative. Indeed
the dative alone expresses this, as avvtXexO'iaav ra~i Ovaiatc, tln'i/ amn'tnl>/<'<l far the
sacrifaf.
Hence, verbs compounded with iiri and -rrpog in this sense have a dat., though the prepositions
alone govern the ace. in the same sense, as ral 7rpae<ri TOIQ avralQ eTTf^fjpj/crav,
they set to
work on the same act'toitx ; and TrpoafidXXuv rtfi rei'x", to set on or attack the fortifications ; and so
have verbs compounded with other prepositions when they express this direction.]
[(&) Verbs compounded with juv.p. governing the dat. also govern the dat. if the prep, can be
separated without altering the sense, and those compounded with irtpi, where it has no influence
on the construction, us irtptfldXXtiv ffw^opaJt;, &c.]
SECT. xxi. GREEK GRAMMAR. 55
[(I) Observe,
that substantives derived from verbs governing the dat. have often a dat., as
dv9pujiroi<riv, a gift to
nmn.]
[43. B. The dative used like the ablative in Latin, and thus answers several questions.]
is
[() Wherewith where companionship is expressed. Verbs compounded with avv and /ra, if
\
the prep, can be separated from the verb, or repeated; verbs of following, as 'i-jnaBai, dicoXovOtlv,
oirqdtlv, and adjectives and adverbs derived from them or agreeing with them in meaning, as I%TJQ
verbs of conversing or being connected tcith, contending, have a dative. The words expressing an armij,
fleet, <T., when constituting
an accompaniment, are in the dat., as d(f>iK6p,tvoi r< oroXy TOVTIO,
'
tritli tin tl-<t and when the word expressing this accompaniment has avrog with it, both are
;
in the dat., as OVTOIQ "LTTTTOIQ iovTtQ, going together with our horses.']
[(&) Whereby \ when an instrument is expressed, as Svolv 6$Qa\uolv bpa~v, to see by means of or
iV/t two eyes ; and even with subst., as Kivrjatig r< (rw/zan, motions with the body. Hence, xp/J(70ai
to use has a dative, and in the same sense it is put with verbs with which in Latin and English no
mean is signified, as TtKp.aipto6ai TOIQ trpoadtv wjuoXoy/jjust'oig, to infer from ichat was granted ;
HOVTSVOVTOI pa/3<?oi, they prophesy by the help of rods ; and so aTaOuavOat.]
[(c) From what ? whence \ where an affection of the mind, &c. is given as a motive, as evvoia
avdui, I speak from good-will.'}
[(d) The dat. also expresses
the external cause, with passives, where it gives the cause, not the
person, by which an action is effected, as xP^
afflt/ tTra/po/zti/og, elated
by riches ; with any verbs,
when it is rendered on account of, as povoi tvTrpayiaiQ OVK iZvfSpiZofjitv, we alone are not insolent on
account of our success ; and with many passives and neuters, where it expresses the sense, occasion,
or object of an action, as rote TreTrpay/usi/otg aiayyv6ptvoi, being ashamed in consequence of what had
been done.]
[(e) The dative expresses the manner or kind
of an action, as (3ia tig oUiav irapisvat, to go in
with force iZnfiiwaav OVTOV <pvyy, punished him with banishment.]
;
[(/) The dat. expresses frequently with respect to, in this sense, TTOO-I ra%vg, swift with respect to
my feet, the feet being the instrument of speed ; and hence we have the dative with verbs of
distinguishing one's self or excelling, as irpokxeiv dptry.]
[(g) The dat. gives the measure of excess, as kviavTijj Trptafivrepoc, older by a year.']
[(h) The dat. answers the question when ? and where ?]
[When I ry d' rjpspa aTrijXXayjuai 06/3ov, in this day I have been released, $c. So rpiat fijjcri,
&c.]
[Where ?
MapaOwvi fitv ore rjfjisv, when we were at Marathon.]
ON THE ACCUSATIVE.
[44. The accusative in Greek, as in other languages, marks the immediate object affected by the
verb, as Xapfldvio TTJV darrida, I take my spear ; and this wants no farther illustration. But there
are some particular cases. Practice, indeed, alone can teach us all the cases where a word which
in other languages is the remote object, and introduced by a preposition, is the immediate object in
Greek, as he swore by the gods, w^ocre TOVQ Beovg.]
[45. A. But some may be particularised.]
[(a) Hti9dJ, i>/3pia>, d^t/clw, several verbs signifying to assist or profit, and to injure, dfjisifBeaOai to
remunerate, Trpoo-Kwviu) (but not in the N. T.). Verbs of flattering, tyQdvk) to anticipate, XavQdvu,
dirodicpdaKw, tTriXeiTrw. Verbs expressing the emotion of shame, fear, pity, as
tTroiKTtipo), &c.' have an accus.]
[(6) Verbs properly intransitive sometimes become transitive, and take an accusative, as at
p'eovffL [liXi, the fountains flow with honey. So CUOTTW, flaivo), a>, XajUTrw, (TTrtv^a;.]
[(c) Intransitive verbs often take an accusative of the particular substantive, which expresses
their meaning as an abstract, as
Kivdwevaii} TOVTOV TOV KivSvvov, I will run this risk.
Zy fiiov tfdiGTov, he lives a very pleasant life.]
[(d) The Greeks often put that word in the accusative, which, according to the laws of thought
and speech, is the remote object ; thus in the verbs to do, to speak, the action done, and word spoken,
are the near objects, and the remote ones are they to whom any thing is said or done yet (1.) by :
the Greeks these remote objects are put in the accusative, as if they were the near ones, thus
icafcwf TTOitiv Tivd, to do harm to any one KUKU>Q Xsyav nvd, to speak ill of any one. And, as in
some verbs, two near objects may be thought of, as / wrap the child in a mantle, or / wrap the mantle
round the child, both may be put in the accusative and (2.) this is the case in Greek, as TI Troirjvu
:
avTov ; what shall I do to him ? where one is the accusative of the person, and the other of the
thing so Trparrw,
; paw, epSw, Xlyw, tiiriiv, dyopevw, spwra'w, (for we may ask a person and ask

following, ainaaOai, dvapvyv, diroXovuv, KuXvtiv, 7rsi9iiv, rivaffOai, chiefly because many verbs
may be referred sometimes to a person, and sometimes to a thing, as KwXvtiv avQptitirov and
KuXvtiv Trpay/za 1 .]
[N.B. Instead of a verb active, we find sometimes the substantive from which it is derived, with
TToitloBai in the accusative, as Oavpa Troiovpivog TT}V Ipyaaiav TOV aidripov, wondering at the
working of iron ; and in the same way, too, we have two accusatives,
from a circumstance noticed
above, as wpicwo-av Tra'vrte; roi)Q fttyiarovQ opicoyf, iliey made them all take the strongest oaths, and
ipt r?}v TWV TTCU^WV Traidtiav tTraidevsv, fie gave
me the education of, $c.~\
[Again, (3.) the remote object is in the accusative, when it signifies only
a part, condition, or
definition, as
KcrXo tffTt rb <r<3/ta, he is beautiful in his body.
Supoc; fjv TI\V TruTpiSa, he was a Syrian by country.']
[And hence the Latins have their os humerosque deo similis. The Greeks sometimes put icara'.]
[(4.) Verbs which properly
have not a substantive of this sort in the accusative, take this case, as
often as a or other common expression takes the place of any express definition, as
pronoun
Ti xpSJuai ai>T<i> ; for what shall Iuse it 1
OVK olda OTI ffoi xpw/xai, I know not for what I shall use you.
TldvTa tvSaifiovtlv, to be happy in every thing.~\
[(5.) And hence (i. e. from the two last remai-ks)
we may explain the double accusative in some
cases, when not the person but thing is the more remote object, as
'EviKj(T TOVQ j8apj3a'pov TTJV iv MapaBaivi fj.d%r]v, he conquered the barbarians in the battle at
Marathon.
Td /usyttrra w0*Xj(r6rE TTJV iroXiv, ye will benefit the city
in the highest degree.
IloXXa fjif rjSiKijKev,
he injured me in many things or much.]
[(6.) The accusative, which expresses duration or distance, belongs to this class, as
HoXvv \povov n'apep.ttvtv, he remained a long time.
Td TroXXd KaOtvSei, he sleeps the most part of his time.
Sena araftiovQ, it is ten stadia distant.]
[46. It will not be difficult now to comprehend the adjective and pronoun neuter, which in
Greek are put in the accusative, to express what other languages signify by a preposition and case,
or an adverb, as
TovvavTiov OVTOQ TTO.V TOVVO.VTIOV ifiovXiTo piv, OVK r)$vvaro 8e, his wishes were exactly in the
opposite way, but, fyc.
To Xf.j6p.tvov' aXX' 77, TO Xtyoptvov, KaToiriv eopTrjc; ^icofiev, but, according to tJie proverb, we have
come after the feast.
To rov iroirjTov' aXXd ydp, TO TOV iroirjTov, tpyov ovdlv ovtiSog, but, as the poet says, no work is
a disgrace.]
[B. Adjectives, &c. derived from verbs which govern the accusative, sometimes retain this
case, as oi ovSdg dQa.va.Tuv 0ui/iog, none of the gods escapes thee; TroXXd vvt<rropa, knowing many
things.]
[We need not observe that one accusative (of the thing) is retained in the pass, of verbs governing
two but, as in Greek, verbs which in the active take a dative of the person, can in the passive be
;
referred to this person as a subject, so they have the thing in the accusative, as oi roiv 'AOrjvaiwv
tTTirtrpa/i/ilvot Trjv QvXaicrjv, who were entrusted with the watch, for olf 77 QvXaKrj tTrirerpaTrro, as
in Latin, inscripti nomina regum,fiores, <|"c.]
[C. Lastly, the accusative is put absolutely, i. e. without being governed by another word, verb,
adjective, or preposition.]
[(a) As an apposition to a whole proposition, as 'EX'tvijv KTavia^iv, MfvtXiy XVTTTJV irtKpdv, i. e.
o (ro KTiivtiv 'EX.) Msv. Xvirr) iriKpa eVrcci.]
[(6) The substantive which contains the leading idea of the proposition, is sometimes put at the
beginning in the accusative, unconnnected with the rest of the proposition, as /iijrlpa S', tl oi Ovpbs
itpopfidrai yafittaOai, "Aip irw tc'f p.'tyapov, i. e. with regard to thy mother, let her go.]
[(c) The accusative is often put in exclamations, as at ifit SeiXaiov, wretched me !]
[(d) Sometimes it is determined by a verb understood. Often in emphatic addresses Xsyw or
KaXat is understood, as oi TTJV vtvovaav ig irtdov icdpa, <f>yQ, T) icarapvy, / speak to you who are
'inclining your Jtead to the ground: with ovopa, TrXrjOog, V\JSOQ, tvpog, and others, t^ w ls understood
very often.]
GENERAL RULES.
47. Verbs compounded with prepositions generally govern the same cases as those prepositions,
as Luke xiii. 12. aTroXeXuo-ai rJ doBtvtiac, thou art loosed from thy infirmity ; Acts xiv. 22.
1
[Matthiae observes, that as pronouns of the neuter gender are put in the accusative with all verbs, instead of
their proper case, we cannot decide that a verb governs two accusatives from merely finding one, and an accusative
of a pronoun. \Ve find such with \^f\<t>, 7rioirvpxta, empofifta, e*(Ku>nidia, 7rpoc-ui>ayKao). The second accusative
-
N.B. Thus have I selected the most common and useful rules of government in the Greek
language but these are very far from comprehending all that might be given upon such an
:
extensive, and indeed almost inexhaustible subject. Government, in the best writers, is so extremely
rar'nmt, that it seems impossible to reduce it within any certain rules; and it must be confessed,
that it is often different from those here laid down .
:
50. The infinitive is put after verbs, substantives, and adjectives, as in English ; thus J3ov\6fit0a
yvutvat, ice desire to know; l%ovaiav ytvkoQai, power to become; aioc K\r)Qrjvai, worthy to be
called.
51. Instead of the infinitive is frequently used the participle agreeing with the nominative case
of the preceding verb, especially with verbs of persevering, desisting, remembering, knowledge, and
s-n-avaaro XaXuiv, he ceased to speak or speaking ; fitp.vtip.ai Troir/ffag, / remember to have
a/ection, as s-n-avaa
done ; aivQavonai SiapapT&v, I perceive I was mistaken.
52. The infinitive mood is often governed by a noun or pronoun in the accusative case going
before, to which noun or pronoun in English is or may be prefixed the conjunction that, as Mark
x. 49. tlirtv avTov QwvriOrivai, lie ordered that he should be called, or as we also say in English, he
ordered him to be called.
53. The with the neuter article TO is used as a noun in all cases, and is often joined
infinitive
with prepositions, as TO Qpovtiv, being wise, or wisdom; airb TOV pax^dai, from fighting ; Iv T<$
XpiiaQai, in using. Comp. Heb. ii. 15. Luke xxii. 15. Acts xxv. 11. Phil. i. 21. ii. 13.
54. The infinitive, when thus applied, admits a noun in the accusative case before it, as John
i.49. ?rp6 TOV at i\iinrov Qwvrjffai, before that Philip called tJtee, or before Philip's calling thee;
John ii. 24. did TO avTov yivwGKeiv iravTaq, because of his knowing all men.
55. A participle of whatever tense, with the article, is in meaning equivalent to the relative OQ
and the verb of the same tense, as 6 aiT&v, he who asketh ; 6 XaXjjo-ag, he who spoke.
56. Participles govern the same cases as their verbs, as OVK IOTI TrevrjQ o [tyo'tv t\M) dXX' 6
lie who desires
TroXXwr tTTiOvfjiuiv, he is not poor who has nothing, but many things.
57. The verbal noun neuter in rtov, denoting necessity, admits the case of its verb, and moreover
a dative of the agent, as ypaTrrsov tpol kiriaToXiiv, I must write a letter, or, more literally, there is to
2
be written by me a letter .
59. Derivative adverbs take after them such cases as the words they come from, as atwf TOV
y'tvovQ, worthily, i. e. in a manner worthy of his birth; tcvicXoGtv TOV Opovov, round about the
throne.
60. Many adverbs of quantity, place, time, cause, order, concealing, separation, number, also adverbs
of the comparative and superlative degrees, are joined with a genitive, as TOIOVTWV adqv txtjievy
we have enough of such persons; Troppo) TIJQ TroXfwg, far from the city; x<t>ptQ UVTOV, without him.
Comp. above, rule 34. A.
61. Adverbs which denote accompanying or collecting have a dative, as a'/ia avTolg, together with
them ; QtoiQ 6/iou, with the gods, i. e. assisting.
62. Adverbs of swearing are followed by an accusative, the preposition TTOOQ by being understood,
as /id Ata, by Jove ; vfi TOV HXovTiuva, by Pluto.

GENERAL OBSERVATIONS FOR RENDERING GREEK INTO ENGLISH.

1. Every finite verb hath a nominative case with which it
agrees, either expressed or
understood.
Every adjective has a substantive expressed or understood.
2.
for which any thing is or is done, or is governed by some preposition expressed or understood.
6. Every accusative is governed by a verb transitive, or by a preposition expressed or
understood.
In rendering Greek into English let the learner remember, in general, that the nominative

SECT, xxiii. GREEK GRAMMAR. 59
the South, and the West- country man has a dialect distinct from both but all England being :
subject to one government, the dialect of the Court and of the Metropolis is the only one usually
committed to writing. It was otherwise among the Greeks for as they were divided into a number ;
of distinct sovereign states, the authors who flourished under those several governments wrote in the
dialect of the country wherein they lived ; as the Italians did a few centuries ago.
2. The Greek dialects, which are preserved in the writings that are come down to us, are prin-
Poetic but as for the two former, there is but little that has escaped the ravages of time, except
:
so far as the ^Eolic agrees with the Doric ; and the poets that remain, except some few forms of
expression peculiar to their own style, wrote in one or other of the three dialects first mentioned.
3. The inspired writers of the New Testament generally write in common Greek, such as it is
described in the preceding Grammar ; but of the dialects they chiefly use the Attic, which, being
that of the inhabitants of Athens and its neighbourhood, was reckoned the politest of all, and is
remarkable for being elegantly simple, neat, and compact not but that the sacred penmen have ;
ionally interspersed the other dialects in their writings: but as they have done this sparingly,
I shall here take notice only of the Attic, and content myself with noticing the few other dialectical
forms in their proper places in the Lexicon.
4. The following then are
1. The ATTICS love contractions; hence the contracted nouns and verbs belong principally to their
dialect. 2. But they are not only fond of contracting syllables in the same word, but likewise blend
different words by apostrophe, as r avro for TO UVTO, TO, 'fid for TO. ipd, TOVT sort for TOVTO sort,
o>
'yaOk for o> ayaOe, TTOV 'art for irov gcrri, p.rj 'an for \iit] IOTI, or by Crasis, as Kayw for Kai syw,
Kctfioi for /cat ifioi, rovvavriov for TO tvavTiov, rouvojwa
for TO ovopa. 3. They change <r into , p,
or T, as ZVVITOQ, 9apptlv, rr/juspov, OaXarra, for cvvtTOQ, Oapcrtiv, afjfiepov, QaXaaaa. But in
preterperfects passive they use cr for /z, as /zjuapa<r^at for jue/japa^/iai. 4. In nouns they change
a into , and o into w, as Xswf a people, vttaQ a temple, for Xao and VO.OQ. See sect. iii. 17- In tlie
nouns o(pioQ, f3aoi\0; and indeed almost their
genitive of contracted they use o^ewf, /3a<riXwf, for
whole declension of contracted nouns in tg and i is peculiar. See sect. iii. 32, 2.
5. They use these syllabic adjections, ovv and ye, as OVKOVV not, ov^Ltvovv by no means, lywyf. I,
avyt thou, adding y throughout all cases. They often postfix t to some adverbs, as vvvi now, ovx't
not, ovTojffi so, for vvv, ovx, owru/e; and to some pronouns, iKtivovi, ovToai, for sKtivog, OVTOQ;
TOVTOVI, TOVTOVI, for TOVTOV, TOVTOV TovTot and TOVTI, for TOVTO TavTi for Tavra.
\ But we meet ;
for fttftapfiat. In pluperfects they cast off the prefixed e, as Mark xv. 1, TrtTroiriKeiaav for kTmroiri-
;
John xi. 57, dtduKtiaav for sdtdu)Kei<rav ; Mark xiv. 44, dtduKti for tdtd&Kti Mark xv. 10, ;
eiffav for TrapedtdbiKtiaav. So Lucian, Qe&v Leeds, whom see, airo- Kpierif, 4, ed.
(3tj3\r)Kei for a7rt/3tj3\r]Kti. In the temporal augment they put before w, thus tupuv, John vi. 2 ;
tupaica, John i. 34, et al. for upaov, tipaica and sometimes before o, 01, and rj, as t o\ira for r/XTra,
;
from fXTrw to hope; IOIKO. (James i. 6. 23.) for tiica, from acw to be like ; tr\Ka for TJKO. I have sent;
they resolve t\ into a, as in 1 aor. taa for ij^a, from ayw to break; they change t into y, as
yicaov, for ctca^ov, from ctca<*i to liken ; they sometimes prefix the two first letters of the present
to the perfects active and middle of verbs beginning with a, o, , as from tiyf/pw to gather, perf. act.
rjyepica, Attic ayrjytpKa from a/co;, perf. mid. fjicoa, Attic aicrjicoa, Acts ix. 13. John iv. 42,
;
et al. from oXXv/u perf. wXfKa, Attic oXwXf/ea, so in perf. mid. 6\a>\a ; from iXavva) or sXaw perf.
}XaKa, Attic iXijXaKa but in the second aorist the augment is prefixed with a like reduplication,
;
as from ayu> to bring, 2 aor. f/yov, Attic ryyayor whence imper. ayaye, infin. ayayfiv. This Attic
;
use of the second aorist of aya and its compounds is very common in the New Testament. In verbs
of two syllables in the first and second class they change in the penultima of the perfect active
into o, as Trt/iTrw to send, perf. ireirtfJiQa, Attic TreTroju^a /3psx w to wet, perf. fiefiptxa, Attic ;
/3j/3po%a. In imperatives, in the 3rd pers. plur. for trwaav and aTwaav they use OVTMV and
avTujv, as TVTTTovTajv, TvtydvTwv, for TVTTTtTuffav, Tv^aTdjffav in the passive and middle, wv for ;
waav, as Tvn-TtaQojv, TVi^daGwv, for TVTTTeaOwaai', TvfyaaQwGav. In optatives, they often use
the second and third persons singular and the third person plural of the ^Eolic 1st aorist, rw^/eta,
a, t, av ;
thus Luke vi. 11, Troirjatiav ;
and in the present after a contracted syllable they change
pi into tjv, as rt/u^jui, yg, <f>,
Attic n^y/jv, 775, tj ;
^iXoi/ut, 01?, 01, Attic tpikoirjv, IJQ, rj ;
and
changing 01 into y, ^tXy'qi/, rjg, rj. So in the third sort of vei-bs in jwi they have Sqjrjv, rjg, ij, for
Soiijv, r)S) n, 2 aor. opt. of &&o/ui. See 2 Thess. iii. 16. 2 Tim. i. 16. iv. 14. In the contracted
