Preface

In preparing the Key to Exercises for New Testament Greek, I have sought to con-vey the sense of the Greek constructions (e.g., tense aspect, mood, case, or structure), sometimes with the consequence of awkward English expressions. There are at least a dozen versions of the New Testament that may be consulted for smooth, idiomatic English. The intent here is to provide a translation of Greek that shows how the Greek writers express themselves and that calls to the students mind some of the possible alternatives conveyed by a given Greek construction.

A word of exhortation: Use this key as a consultant whom you visit to test your work. Do not use the key as a substitute for your own efforts at translation! Used as a substitute, the key will be a crutch that will hinder learning. Used as a consultant, the key may become a friend that will prod you to a more perceptive understanding and greater precision in properly handling the Word of God.

J. A. H.

We have made changes to the original Key to Exercises in several areas. First, some of the changes here reflect modifications to the original exercises in New Testament Greek. A few exercises have been replaced; others have been modified. Then, because the revised edition of New Testament Greek now has English-to-Greek exercises, this revised Key to Exercises provides Greek translations of those exercises as well. But be-cause there are often several possible correct answers to an exercisedue especially to the variability in Greek sentence structure and the lack of context provided for each exercisewe have greatly expanded the number of suggested alternative read-ings. Finally, a number of footnotes have been added to provide discussion of various translation issues that may arise in the course of doing the exercises.

We extend our thanks to Joe Carey, the copy editor for this revision project, and to Mark House, Hendrickson Publishers editor for New Testament and Greek books.

3 The positioning of , if it is included, is somewhat flexible.4 Students will learn in chapter 15 that neuter plural subjects often take a singular verb

(hence, ).5 If the modifier of these qualities is definite ( ), it can make the qualities them-

selves definite.6 In the English sentence Tell me something, the word something is the direct object

of the verb, and the word me is the indirect object. In Greek, indirect objects are normally in the dative case.

2. For the prophets and the law will evangelize (or will announce good news) until John.

8 On the dative case used here, see above, ch. 7, ex. B.2. and its accompanying footnote. It is a common occurrence that the first of more than one subject of a verb will be emphasized. In such a case, the verb usually precedes the and, if the first subject is singular, the verb will likewise be singular. This occurs even though the nominative case indicates that the second subject (making a plurality) also participates in the action of the verb. In this exercise, the verb would be , and the sentence might read . Observe that case alone tells you that the disciples are subjects, not objects, of the verb.



9. I will send my messenger (or angel) before your presence (or face); that one (or he) will not teach from himself,9 but (he) will open the eyes of the sons (or children? offspring?10) of humanity (or of the people, or of the men).

5. But even now the hour is (here) (or even now is the hour) when the faithful teachers will preach (or proclaim) that I am going to (or departing for) the throne of God.

9 This exercise demonstrates the problem of English translation when gender is not (yet) specified. Only context would tell us that the messenger might prove to be a specific human being, such as Jesus or John the Baptist.

10 See ch. 25, p. 249, for a brief discussion of son of idioms, many of which are not in-tended to be understood as gendered.

12 Without context, human being would be more appropriate than man. However, this sentence is derived from a passage in 1 Corinthians that contrasts two men in particular, Adam and Jesus.

13 Because is masculine in gender, the pronoun that modifies it must be masculine as well (). The problem is whether or not to translate the pronoun into English, which suggests that the Christian god is a masculine deity and is not beyond gender. This issue crops up again in ex. 11.

1. But we have proclaimed (with continuing effect, or come to proclaim) the gospel (or good news), which no one (or none) of the rulers of this age has known (with continuing effect, or has come to know); for if they had known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

21 This is a good example of the importance of case (recall the footnote to ch. 8, ex. B.2. above). The emphasis in this sentence is on we, but the Holy Spirit is also a witness of these words.

23 is best not translated as a true superlative. The intention here is comparison: the one who is trustworthy in little things will be trustworthy in big things, and so forth.

24 The inclusiveness of the beatitude almost cries out for to be translated children instead of the gender-exclusive sons. The issue here, which is constantly faced in translating the New Testament, is one of finding a balance between the polarities of literal and dynamic equivalent translation when striving to express the intended meaning of a Greek word or phrase in context.
