Jeremiah woke me up early this morning with news that the SBL is coming out with a critical text for the Greek New Testament. We think.

WB returns: Romans 1
Posted by Joel in Bible Translation, Homosexuality, Romans on July 28, 2009
One of my first ‘blogger friends’ was Wb Moore, and after a long hiatus, he has returned, in traditional form, with a bang! He tackles Romans 1.27-28 against charges such as ‘words used only here by Paul. Familiar words are used here in unusual ways.’ Wb answers it soundly.

Following Daniel Wallace on Granville Sharp
Posted by Joel in Godhead, New Testament on July 27, 2009
I love the study of Greek – Mike Aubrey has posted a link to a short book on Granville Sharp’s rule on a certain phrasing of the Greek language, which I feel is important in our understanding of the deity of Christ.
Following Wallace’s important words on Granville Sharp’s rule, I would encourage you to take the time to read through Christopher Wordsworth’s Six Letters to Granville Sharp fully available on Google Books for download and read through what the native Greeks say and think about Sharp’s Canon.
In a previous post, Mike notes the native Greek speaker acknowledges the Granville Sharp rule as valid:
At 242f., I love the fact that Sharp’s Canon is confirmed via native speaker intuition. For me, this was by far the strongest argument, though I wish that a few of the Arians who conceded the syntax of the construction were mentioned or cited. That would have been helpful.
Thanks to Mike for pointing this book out!
