Wednesday Giveaway - Prepositions and Theology in the Greek New Testament
Is the kingdom “within” or “among” you?
While theologically the difference is quite significant;
grammatically it is simply a matter of how we go about translating a single
preposition.
It is because of translation questions like this that an
in-depth understanding of prepositions is of vital importance to any student of
Biblical Greek. And this week’s giveaway, Prepositions and Theology in the
Greek New Testament, summarizes and demonstrates those numerous places in the
New Testament where prepositions contribute significantly to the meaning of the
text.
Written by Murray J. Harris, professor of New Testament
Exegesis and Theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, this book covers
of all 17 “proper” and 42 “improper” prepositions
, explores both literary and
broader theological contexts and discusses key repeated phrases that use a
particular preposition.
A worthy addition to any library of language resources.
To enter the giveaway, comment below with your answer to
a proposition question which I've personally had more than one good-natured argument about: Do you say "by accident" or "on accident?"
Also, a bonus entry is available if you
comment a second time letting us know that you shared a link to this giveaway
on Facebook, Twitter, or your blog.
