Description: While there are almost 1000 questions in the Greek New Testament many commentators pastors and students skip over the questions for more theological verses or worse they convert questions into statements to mine them for what they are saying theologically. However this is not the way questions in the Greek New Testament work and it overlooks the rhetorical importance of questions and how they were used in the ancient world. Questions and Rhetoric in the Greek New Testament is a helpful and thorough examination of questions in the Greek New Testament seen from the standpoint of grammatical semantic and linguistic analysis with special emphasis on their rhetorical effects. It includes charts tools and lists that explain and categorize the almost 1000 questions in the Greek New Testament. Thus the user is able to go to the section in the book dealing with the type of question they are studying and find the exegetical parameters needed to understand that question. Questions and Rhetoric in the Greek New Testament offers vibrant examples of all the major categories of questions to aid the reader in grasping how questions work in the Greek New Testament. Special emphasis is given to the way questions persuade and influence readers of the Greek New Testament.
