If you've read this blog for awhile, you know that sometimes I just notice things as I'm reading through the text. This time, it was a syntactic structure used in 1Ti 6.3, shown below in the ESV NT Reverse Interlinear:
The structure that is highlighted is what we're interested in. This is a neat little syntactic structure where the article + substantive (here a noun) combo surrounds a prepositional phrase. Here's the syntax graph of the verse:
I thought it might be interesting and instructive to walk through constructing a search to find this and other instances (over 100 in the NT!). So I created a video.
[Note: I used WMV format because the video as captured was too big for Camtasia to save as Flash format. I'll try to keep it shorter in the future -- RB]
Thanks for taking the time to demonstrate the searching capablities in this data base. The videos really do help. Please keep sending these out, I always look foward to new ones.
Blessings, Brian
