Preface Learning a Greek vocabulary large enough for rapid reading of the New Testament is a daunting task. While a good knowledge of Greek grammar can be gained in a year of study, New Testament vocabulary typically demands much longer attention. This book seeks to aid in this task by enabling the student to build a vocabulary of New Testament Greek by using the principles of word formation and by drawing on the cognate relationships of most New Testament Greek words. For more than two generations the best tool for learning the Greek vocabulary of the New Testament has been Bruce M. Metzger’s Lexical Aids for Students of New Testament Greek.1 This helpful book has been the standard in its field, and rightly so. Still, Lexical Aids has shortcomings. Using its lists of 1067 words organized by frequency in the New Testament, the student sees no cognate relationships between words; most memorization is rote.2 Metzger does also list 690 words, many in addition to those in the frequency lists, by cognate. But because this cognate list does not include even half the words that are in the frequency list, it is unsuitable for comprehensive vocabulary learning. Moreover, my practice and that of other teachers using Lexical Aids has been to assign the frequency lists with some thoroughness, but the cognate list only occasionally. Hence the need for one format combining frequency and cognate, a format that can enable the student to memorize Greek vocabulary as easily as possible and in a pedagogically sound manner. Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary is organized as follows: Part One is a guide to using this book and is directed especially to the student. Part Two is an outline of the basic principles of word building. It should be studied with some care before the student proceeds to the cognate lists in Part Three, as a knowledge of the rudiments of word building will make memorizing vocabulary easier and more effective. 1

Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary Each word that appears five or more times in the New Testament appears once in Part Three or Part Four, in Part Three if it has any cognate(s) that also appear five or more times in the New Testament, in Part Four if it does not. The words in Part Three are arranged by cognate families in six sections according to the frequency of the most recurrent word in each family. Each word is given a basic English definition based on New Testament usage, and its frequency in the New Testament is listed. Occasionally a well-known English derivative is given to aid in memorization.3 The lists in Part Four of those Greek words appearing five or more times in the New Testament without common cognates are also divided into six frequency groups. As in Part Three, basic English definitions and occasional English derivatives are given, and the frequency of each word is listed. The two sections listing words occurring five to nine times (III.G. and IV.G.) can be left aside by those who want to omit learning words of such low frequency that do not have more common cognates. Also, the frequency of each word in the cognate lists (Part Three) is noted, so that the teacher can assign for study any given frequency of Greek words. The student should alternate between the corresponding sections of Parts Three and Four until both parts have been completed. As an aid to learning, each frequency section is divided into groups of about 20 to 30 words, which seems to be a good number to learn at one sitting. Part Five gives helps for verb analysis, including lists of the principal parts of the different types of verb. Part Six lists prepositions, both proper and improper. Part Seven lists conjunctions and adverbs, and Part Eight lists number-words. All of these words appear in Parts Three and Four, but they are presented together again for the benefit of the student. I have drawn the definitions in Parts Three and Four from the third edition of A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature (hereafter BDAG), using the succinct (not the expanded) definitions and keeping closely to the New Testament usage.4 For counting frequency 3
Metzger also includes a good number of English derivatives in his lists. However, many of these words are unfamiliar to most students, even though they are words that students of Bible and theology should learn (e.g., “hamartiology,” “macarism,” “thaumaturge”). This use of unfamiliar words violates the pedagogical principle that the unfamiliar (here Greek words) should be learned via the familiar (their English derivatives). I have endeavored to restrict the derivatives to more familiar words. 4 By W. Bauer; revised and edited by F. W. Danker. Chicago and London: University

Preface I have used the Concordance to the Novum Testamentum Graece.5 This concordance is based on the twenty-sixth edition of the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece,6 the text (but not the textual apparatus) of which is identical to that of the third edition of the United Bible Societies’ Greek New Testament.7 In determining cognate relationships, I have used as final authorities E. Boisacq’s Dictionnaire étymologique de la langue grecque8 and H. Frisk’s Griechisches etymologisches Wörterbuch.9 I should like to thank here those who helped this project along in various ways. Professor George Landes of Union Theological Seminary (New York) encouraged and advised me as I began this book; it is patterned somewhat upon his Student’s Vocabulary of Biblical Hebrew Listed according to Frequency and Cognate.10 My secretary at Lycoming College, Sheran Swank, did a most skillful job of putting the challenging manuscript of the first edition on disk. My student assistant, Jeremy Owens, compiled the original index and read the proofs. Several people wrote me to offer suggestions for improvement, many of which were incorporated in the second edition. I extend my appreciation to Eugene Boring of Texas Christian University, Francis Gignac of the Catholic University of America, and Richard Carlson of Lutheran Theological Seminary, Gettysburg, for their particularly extensive, careful comments. My thanks also are extended to Professor Beverly Gaventa of Princeton Theological Seminary, editor of the SBL’s Resources for Biblical Studies series, for accepting this book for Scholars Press publication. Her peer-review committee made several helpful suggestions for the second edition. My student assistant, Daven Oskvig, helped to compile the new material in the second edition. For the third edition, Bill Pinches, a doctoral candidate in New Testament at Princeton Theological Seminary, made many corrections and additions to the word lists in Parts Three and Four, and also contributed of Chicago Press, 2000.

Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary the list in Part Five. I owe him a special expression of gratitude for his kind, careful work. I also thank Rachel Brownson for reading the proofs of the third edition, and Western Theological Seminary for providing the funds for proofreading. While all these have made this a better book, I alone am responsible for its errors. I would be grateful if those who use this book would continue to be so kind as to share their suggestions for improvement with me. This edition features, in addition to the correction of miscellaneous mistakes, the following main additions: • A new section listing proper nouns, adjectives and adverbs that occur five or more times; • A new section, “Helps for Translating aÈtÒw and Similar Words”; • All definitions have been compared to the new edition of the GreekEnglish Lexicon of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, and revised where necessary. My special thanks go, as always, to my wife, Mary, and our sons, Richard and Nicholas, for their constant love and encouragement that make scholarship a happier task. The quotation in the dedication is excerpted from Sirach 7:27-28: “With all your heart honor your father and mother; what can you give back to them that equals what they have given to you?” Robert E.

Part One
Guide to Using This Book In a year’s course of studying Greek grammar, students learn at most several hundred Greek words, usually as a part of each lesson in their textbook. But when they come to read the New Testament they find that this vocabulary is woefully inadequate for reading it with any speed or confidence. Often they spend more time looking up unknown words in the lexicon than directly reading the text itself, and they soon get discouraged. At this point in studying Greek, several hundred other words should be learned, and the more the better. Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary is designed to help the student of New Testament Greek cross that gap by learning all the words that occur five or more times in the New Testament. Such a vocabulary of New Testament Greek is sufficient for rapid, confident reading of the text. Part One is directed especially to the student as a brief guide to using this book to the fullest advantage in building a large vocabulary of Greek. This book combines the frequency method of listing vocabulary (based on the number of times a word occurs in the New Testament) with the cognate method (based on word families). Cognates are understood here to be words that are related to each other by their possession of a common element, usually called a stem or root, and that are therefore related in meaning as well. Words that are cognate make up a word family. To take an example from English, the words “believe,” “belief,” “unbelief,” “believable,” “believer,” etc., are all obviously cognates. They share the root “believ-,” and make up a family of words. Words in any language do not grow willy-nilly; they are formed in certain regular patterns, and to know the patterns employed in Greek word building is greatly to simplify the tedious process of memorizing New Testament vocabulary. Therefore, the student should carefully study Part Two, “Basic Principles of Greek Word Building,” before proceeding to the word lists. Each cognate group is organized as follows: Each entry in the group has a Greek word, its English definition, an English derivative where helpful, 1
Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary and a frequency number. The English definition is very basic, and is not at all intended to be comprehensive; for full definitions and nuance, a lexicon should be consulted. Where an English derivative is given, it can be used as an aid to memorizing the particular Greek word from which it comes, but can also sometimes be used to remember other words in the cognate group as well. Finally, the frequency number can be noted but need not be remembered. Each cognate group begins with the most frequent word, which is in bold type. The group generally proceeds from there in alphabetical order, but not in a strictly uniform way, because very similar words are kept together for ease in memorization regardless of their alphabetical order. The frequency lists in Part Four have the same basic entries as the frequency and cognate lists in Part Three: the Greek word, its definition, a derivative where helpful, and the frequency number. The Greek words in this part are not necessarily without any cognates in the New Testament, but those cognates that occur do so less than five times. The frequency lists in Part Four are organized according to the same rates of frequency as the lists in Part Three, and the student should alternate between the corresponding sections of Parts Three and Four. The New Testament contains 1738 words that occur five or more times, all of which are listed here. (This does not include nouns that are always proper.) Of these 1738 words, about 78% can be placed with cognates also occurring five or more times. If the student omits parts III.G. and IV.G., which list most of the words occurring 5–9 times (those that have not been grouped with more frequent cognates), the percentage of words remaining listed with cognates rises to 87%. That the great majority of New Testament Greek vocabulary can thus be listed and learned together with cognates more than compensates for the disadvantage of having to consult two sets of lists. Although each student must find a system for learning vocabulary that works well for her or him, these suggestions may be helpful: (1) Begin by studying the words in this book as they are listed in their word families. Note their relationships to each other as far as these are evident. Take care to distinguish very similar words, which you will see in the cognate lists. Use the margins of the pages to make notes about the words studied. (2) When learning Greek words, repeat the word aloud several times. Pronouncing and hearing the words will help in memorizing them. Take care 2
Guide to Using This Book to accent the right syllable, and when repeating words keep the accent on this syllable. Not doing so complicates the task. (3) In addition to saying the words aloud, write them out several times. Write and pronounce them together. The more ways that words are impressed on the memory, the more complete memorization will be. (4) Note the English derivatives when they are given. The meaning of the English word will be suggestive of the meaning of the Greek word. Learn the Greek word by way of the actual English derivative before resorting to other, nonsensical associations with English words. (5) Some students find flash cards helpful. While commercially printed cards are available, it is best to write out one’s own. Keep them in cognate groups, especially at first. Then they can be rearranged as one goes along so that more attention is devoted to new and difficult words. (6) Words that stubbornly resist memorization—which happens to almost every student, and for no easily discernible reason—can often be learned by memorizing a short, familiar phrase from the Greek New Testament in which these words occur. (7) Using one’s actual knowledge of Greek words and the principles of word formation, the student can often make an intelligent preliminary guess about the meaning of unfamiliar words, especially the words of very low frequency not presented in this book. Such guesses should, of course, be soon checked against the lexicon. (8) Constant review is essential to work Greek vocabulary from short-term memory into long-term memory.

Part Two
Basic Principles of Greek Word Building The Greek language builds words in rather regular patterns. To know these patterns is to lighten greatly the chore of memorizing vocabulary, especially when memorizing cognate words. We will consider here only the most basic principles of word formation necessary for learning vocabulary. Those who desire more detail should consult a standard Greek grammar.1 The two most frequent methods of building words are derivation and composition.
Word Building by Derivation In derivation suffixes are added to a word stem to form different cognate words. For example, to the stem basil-, which carries the notion of “rule, kingship,” is added the nominal suffix -euw to make basileÊw, “king”; the verbal suffix -euv to make basileÊv, “I rule, am king”; and the adjectival suffix -ikow to make basilikÒw, “royal.” In the course of this adding of suffixes the final part of the stem often undergoes various changes. The rules that govern these changes will not be discussed here, because students who have had some Greek grammar are already familiar with many of these changes as they appear in other contexts, and at any rate the stem is almost always recognizable. The charts that follow give the typical significance of the most important suffixes used in building the vocabulary of the Greek New Testament. Some uses of suffixes will vary from this typical significance, but most adhere to it. The left-hand column lists the suffixes; suffixes for adjectives are in the 1
For example, H. W. Smyth, Greek Grammar (revised edition; Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 1956) 225–54; or F. Blass and A. Debrunner, A Greek Grammar of the New Testament and Other Early Christian Literature, ed. R. W. Funk (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1961) 58–68. It is interesting to note that Blass-DebrunnerFunk’s Greek Grammar can give a full discussion of word formation without any discussion of roots. The best treatment, and the one relied on here, is by J. H. Moulton and W. F. Howard, A Grammar of New Testament Greek, vol. 2, Accidence and Word Formation (Edinburgh: Clark, 1928) 267–410.

Although we speak of “building” words from the “stem,” note that these stems (which some grammarians call “roots”) probably never had any existence apart from the words in their families. Stems or roots are abstractions from existing words, made for linguistic purposes. What T. O. Lambdin says about Hebrew roots is applicable to the Greek language: “The root is a grammatical abstraction from [cognate] words and not vice-versa; that is, because a root has no existence apart from its incorporation into words, it leads to a misunderstanding of the nature of language to say that words are derived from the root” (Introduction to Biblical Hebrew [New York: Scribners, 1971] 18). If this is recognized, the notion of stems/roots can be used as a valid grammatical construct in studying word formation and learning the vocabulary of the Greek New Testament.

Word Building by Composition A compound word is formed by the joining of two or more words. English does not form compounds as readily as did Hellenistic Greek, in which word formation through composition was very common. The great majority of compound words in the New Testament are compound verbs. Compound verbs have a preposition as their first member and a verb as the second member. The precise nuance that the preposition adds to the verb varies, because the meaning of the preposition is often modified by the verb it joins. In addition to a local force (showing direction), several prepositions also sometimes strengthen or perfect the force of verbs with which they are compounded. English has a few examples of this: “eat” is strengthened in “eat up,” “swallow” in “swallow down,” etc. The student should be aware, though, that by Hellenistic times some of these perfectives had lost the force they originally may have had. Failure to recognize this when it occurs leads to “overtranslating” the verb. For example, one of the meanings of fil°v is “I kiss,” but the compound verb katafil°v does not signify an especially intense kiss. Here (as always) usage is determinative, for which a good lexicon should be consulted. The prepositions most often used as perfectives are: sun-, kata-, éna-, épo-, and §k-. They are translated in the chart below with “thoroughly” and have their own example on a separate line. 7

Basic Principles of Greek Word Building The meaning that prepositional prefixes contribute to verbs can be illustrated by the many compounds in the New Testament of bãllv, “I put, place, throw.” épobãllv means “I throw off.” §kbãllv is “I throw out,” hence “I expel.” §pibãllv means “I lay upon.” katabãllv means “I throw down,” in the middle voice “I found, lay,” especially used of laying a foundation. “I put around, clothe” is peribãllv. probãllv is “I put forward, put out.” The meaning of sumbãllv is not readily apparent; it is “I converse, consider, meet.” The parts of this compound are hinted at by BDAG, which suggests that sum + ballv is paralleled by our modern colloquial expression, “get it all together.” Finally, Íperbãllv is “I go beyond, surpass, outdo.”
B. Compounds with Adverbial Prefixes Compound words of all types can be formed by prefixing an adverbial particle or an independent adverb to a word or stem. The chief adverbial prefixes used in forming compounds in the New Testament are: Prefix
Typical Significance

eÈ-
well, good
eÈagg°lion good news, gospel eÈerget°v I do good
dus-
hard, un-, mis-
dusent°rion dysentery
C. Compound Nouns and Adjectives Compound nouns and adjectives are also formed by joining two words, one of which is usually a noun. As in word building by derivation, changes often occur in the words joined. In compound nouns and adjectives this change almost always occurs at or near the point of conjunction. Fortunately for the student of Greek vocabulary, the two members of the compound are usually recognizable despite these changes, and we will not look directly at the separate members here. But for understanding compounds of all sorts, each
9
Building Your New Testament Greek Vocabulary member of the compound must be understood and taken into account.3 The two members of compound nouns and adjectives can be viewed as standing in various case relationships with each other. Most obvious is an accusative case relationship, where one member of the compound receives the action of the other as its “direct object”: nomodidãskalow teacher of the law pantokrãtvr ruler of all, hence “the Almighty” ofikodespÒthw ruler of a house érxisunãgvgow ruler of a synagogue A dative case relationship may also be apparent: efidvlÒyutow sacrificed to idols yeod¤daktow taught by God Many compounds show a nominative case relationship. That is, the members of the compound stand in a predicate relationship, with the first usually describing the second: monogenÆw unique, only, one-of-a-kind érxiereÊw chief priest, high priest ceudoprofÆthw false prophet
Conclusion To sum up this treatment of word building, perhaps it would be helpful to offer a rather comprehensive example of word building by both derivation and composition from one root. The root we shall employ is dik, which in its word family signifies “right, just.” Note how this stem joins the prefixes and suffixes listed above to form a whole family of words. (Not all word families are as full and well-formed as this, but this one is highly illustrative of the process.) Nouns formed by derivation and composition are: d¤kh punishment, justice dikastÆw judge dikaiosÊnh justice, righteousness dika¤vma righteous deed 3
In the word lists, compound verbs are listed by the second element, the verb. All other compounds are generally listed by the first element.

Part Six
Helps for Verb Analysis An important, and probably the most challenging, part of learning the vocabulary of the Greek New Testament is learning the principal parts of numerous verbs. The student often learns these one by one in the daily lessons, but it is good to review them together. This section presents helps for learning and understanding the structure of verbs. First is a chart on the principal parts, tense systems, and aspects of the regular verb; second is an explanation of the elements of verb structure, especially as they are used in parsing verbs; and third is a list of the principal parts of many important verbs, arranged by type.
A. Principal Parts, Tense Systems, and Aspects of the Regular Verb lÊv
1. PRESENT SYSTEM a. Present tense (active, middle, passive) All moods Stem + ending (lu-omen) Indicative – continuing action in the present time Other forms – continuing action, time undetermined b. Imperfect tense (active, middle, passive) Augment + stem + ending (§-lu-omen) In the indicative mood only (continued action in past)
lÊsv
2. FUTURE SYSTEM Future tense (active & mid.) No subjunctive or imperative Stem + s + ending (lu-s-omen) Continued action or undefined action in future
¶lusa
3. FIRST AORIST SYSTEM 1st Aorist Tense (active & middle) All moods (Augment) + stem + s + a-type ending (§-lu-s-amen) Indicative (with augment) – undefined action in past Other moods (no augment) – undefined action, time undetermined 86
Helps for Verb Analysis l°luka
4. FIRST PERFECT ACTIVE SYSTEM a. Perfect tense (active only) All moods Reduplication + stem + k + a-type ending (le-lu-k-amen) Indicative – completed action in the present Other moods – completed action b. Pluperfect tense (active only) Augment + reduplication + stem + k + ending (§-le-lu-k-eimen) In the indicative mood only (completed action in the past)
l°lumai
5. PERFECT MIDDLE AND PASSIVE SYSTEM a. Perfect tense (middle and passive) All moods Reduplication + stem + middle-passive ending (le-lu-meya) Indicative – completed action in the present Other moods – completed action b. Pluperfect tense (middle and passive) Augment + reduplication + stem + mid.-pass. ending (§-le-lu-meya) In the indicative mood only (completed action in the past)
§lÊyhn
6. FIRST PASSIVE SYSTEM a. Aorist tense (passive only) All moods (Augment) + stem + yh + active ending (§-lu-yh-men) Indicative (with augment) – undefined action in the past Other moods (no augment) – undefined action, time undetermined b. Future tense (passive only) No subjunctive or imperative Stem + yh + s + passive ending (lu-yh-s-omeya) Continued action in the future

B. Elements of Verb Structure for Parsing Students are often called upon to “parse” (analyze grammatically) verbs of all sorts. Here is an explanation of verb structure necessary for parsing efficiently; it should be used for consolidation and review. All verbs have some or all of the following elements: 1. Tense: Present, Imperfect, Future, Aorist, Perfect, Pluperfect, Future Perfect (rare) 2. Aspect: Continual, Undefined, Perfective 3. Voice: Active, Middle, Passive 4. Mood: Indicative, Subjunctive, Optative, Imperative, Infinitive, Participle (Some grammarians do not consider the infinitive and participle to be moods, but we will consider them so here for pedagogical reasons.) 5. Person: First, Second, Third 6. Number: Singular, Plural All tenses occur in all voices, persons, and numbers, but some of the tenses occur in only a limited group of moods: 1. Present tense: all moods 2. Imperfect tense: Indicative mood only 3. Future tense: Indicative, Optative, Infinitive, and Participle 4. Aorist tense: all moods 5. Perfect tense: all moods 6. Pluperfect tense: Indicative mood only 7. Future Perfect tense: Indicative, Optative, Infinitive, and Participle (This tense is seldom used, and then almost always in the passive voice.) Aspects of verbs are directly related to tense: 1. Continual aspect: Present, Imperfect and Future tenses 2. Undefined aspect: Aorist tense only 3. Perfective aspect: Perfect and Pluperfect tenses 88
Helps for Verb Analysis In order to parse and translate a verb correctly the student must be able to give the following information: For Finite Verbs (i.e., indicative, subjunctive, optative, imperative): tense, aspect, voice, mood, person and number. Here, for example, is the parsing of lÊv: Voice Tense Aspect Present Continual Active
Mood Person Indicative First
Number Singular
For Infinitives: tense, aspect, voice and “mood.” Here, for example, is lÊein: Tense Aspect Voice Present Continual Active
“Mood” Infinitive
For Participles: tense, aspect, voice, “mood,” gender, number and case. Here, for example, is lÊvn: Tense Aspect Voice Present Continual Active
“Mood” Gender Number Participle Masculine Singular
Case Nominative
C. Principal Parts of Common Verbs, Arranged by Type The Greek verb forms its principal parts in rather regular ways. Students who master these patterns will have come a good distance in learning to read rapidly, and understand, the New Testament. The following sections contain all the verbs in the New Testament that occur fifty or more times; they represent fully all the different types of verbs. Where no form appears, that principal part does not occur in the New Testament. Hyphenated forms are found only in compounds.

The words and their meanings A. aÈtÒw, aÈtÆ, aÈtÒ:
he, she, it (personal pronoun) himself, herself, itself (intensive adjective when in predicate position) same (identical adjective when in attributive position)
B. •autoË, •aut∞w, •autoË: himself, herself, itself (reflexive pronoun; in genitive, dative and accusative cases only) C. aÏth: this (demonstrative adjective/pronoun) II. Examples of usage A. aÈtÒw, aÈtÆ, aÈtÒ Personal pronoun: ı énØr égapò tØn §kklhs¤an aÈtoË. “The man loves his church.” aÈtÚw égapò tØn §kklhs¤an aÈtoË. “He loves his church.” N.B.: aÈtÒw is used by itself here, apart from any relationship to the definite article. Its gender and number are determined by its antecedent; its case is determined by its use. Intensive adjective (“-self”): ≤ gunØ aÈtØ égapò tØn §kklhs¤an. “The woman herself loves the church.” aÈtØ ≤ gunØ égapò tØn §kklhs¤an. “The woman herself loves the church.” N.B.: aÈtÒw is used in the predicate position when used to intensify the word it modifies. It agrees in gender, number and case with this word. 94
Helps for Translating aÈtÒw and Similar Words Identical adjective (“same”): ı aÈtÚw énØr égapò tØn §kklhs¤an. “The same man loves the church.” ı énØr égapò tØn aÈtØn §kklhs¤an. “The man loves the same church.” N.B.: aÈtÒw normally is used in the attributive position; it agrees in gender, number and case with the noun it modifies. B. Reflexive pronoun: ≤ gunØ égapò •autÆn. “The woman loves herself.” N.B.: The initial • is the definite clue. C. Demonstrative pronoun: aÏth ≤ gunØ égapò tØn §kklhs¤an. “This woman loves the church.” N.B.: The rough breathing and the accent over the initial diphthong are definite clues for the meaning “this.” Also, only the feminine nominative forms aÏth and aÏtai look at all like aÈtÒw.

Conjunctions, Negatives and Adverbs A special challenge to the student of Greek is often posed by particles, small words that are indeclinable, often compounded, and frequently similar to each other in Greek spelling and English meaning. Few, if any, have English derivatives. These words are important in reading and interpreting, and a little extra study to learn them carefully will pay good dividends. Most particles are conjunctions, negatives, or adverbs; these important particles from Parts Three and Four are presented again here for review.
