hi all -
this forum seems to be new so i hope there’s someone around to answer this…

I get EXTREMELY :cry: confused with all the different uses of the genitive case.

I use the JACT textbook, which has many good examples, but there always seem to be more uses of the genitive than are covered in my textbook.

does anyone know of good resources that cover all of the uses of the genitive?

thanks - didwe

I find knowing the two main uses of the Genitive viz. The
Possessive and Partitive suffice in most contexts, however if you are interested in a more detailed short form list then try Athenaze II.

For a good discussion of NT Greek’s use of the genitive try Wallace’s book. I think it’s called Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics, or something like that.
