Linguistics and Exegesis in the Gospel of Mark: Applications Of a Case Frame Analysis And Lexicon

In the first part of this study of the Greek of Mark's gospel, Danove develops a method for analyzing the syntactic, semantic, and lexical attributes of Greek verbs and prepositions. He also usefully formulates the results of these analyses as entries for a Lexicon and Parsing Guide for Mark. The ensuing exegetical studies address a wide range of questions: textual critical questions, disputed points of punctuation, translation of groups of verbs with particular syntactic and semantic properties, and how the method can assist in studying the characterization of God.
