News of Koine Greek And Mounce's Basics of Biblical Greek

Xai/rete pai=dej,

Holy Zeus! It's around 4am Saturday morning here in Montreal -- bad case of insomnia induced by Greek Grammar stress! So please bare with me if I'm a little incorent. :?

I have some questions about sentence patterns -- i.e., subordinate participial clauses, etc. -- and just plain grammar. For instance,

Acts 1:6: Oi( me\n ou)=n sunelqo/ntej h)rw/twn au)to\n le/gontej, Ku/rie, ei) e)n tw=| xro/nw| ...

Ku/rioj poimai/nei me, kai\ ou)de/n me u(sterh/sei

Hi,

I am wondering if anyone can help me with this verse? I don't need them both translated or anything like that. What I am trying to establish is the Real Presence in the communion theology. I have been told that the Greek word that was used for remembrance actually meant to re-live.

Gratias ago vobis propter responsiones vestras futuras.

I know this is off-topic, but I was wondering if any of you know sites like Textkit that deal with OT Hebrew. Any help would be much appreciated!

I would like to join a study group. I am beginning to work on the book and having a study group would surely help. Anybody out there would like to moderate this group?

Is ginomai a deponent verb?

In that case how can it have a form both for perfect active gegona
and a form for perfect passive/middle gegenhmai? Is not just one form enough? The same seems to happen with the aorist with egenomhn and egenhthen.

Could anyone translate these forms so that I can see the difference between them or provide meaningful examples?

Another question is: why do I encounter ginomai in Mounce and gignomai in ...

In greek syntax does the "kai" have to be present between each noun in a list or can it be as in english?

Fruit, bread, and meat

or

fruit (kai) bread (kai) meat

oi( a0/ggeloi ginw/skousi qa/naton kai\ dida/skousin a)nqrw/pouj lo/goij.


In this sentence would the first accusative affect the second verb?

The simple - The messengers know death and teach men (with) words.
