Learn to Read the Greek New Testament

Chapter Five: The Third Declension of Greek NounsLearn to Read the Greek New Testament - cover

by B Ward Powers

no English to Greek - only actual Bible verses as examples/exercises

 

The Third Declension of koine Greek nouns is a notoriously difficult section of grammar to understand. Greek has twenty regular patterns for nouns of the Third Declension, and there are many common “irregulars”. This book sets out (Appendix D) all twenty regular patterns, shows how they are derived by six simple linguistic rules from four basic patterns - and then discusses one by one all of the Third Declension irregulars that occur in the Greek New Testament. This quite takes all the mystery out of the Third Declension.

A detailed table of contents for chapter 5 and Appendix D is shown below.
