New Testament Greek

Greek verbs (ῥῆματα) are the most structurally rich elements in New Testament grammar, encoding action or state along with tense-aspect, voice, mood, person, and number—all within a single word. These features reveal not just when something happens, but how it unfolds (aspect), who is involved (person and number), and the speaker’s intent (mood). Greek distinguishes between imperfective (ongoing), perfective (completed), and stative (resulting state) aspects, and uses active, middle, and passive voices to show the subject’s role in the action. Moods such as indicative, imperative, subjunctive, and optative express reality, command, or possibility. Non-finite forms like infinitives and participles expand sentence complexity and theological nuance.… Learn Koine Greek
