    Exegetical Insight The nominative case is the case that the subject is in. When the subject takes an equative verb like “is” (i.e., a verb that equates the subject with something else), then another noun also appears in the nominative caseąthe predicate nominative. In the sentence, “John is a...

    Distinguishing the Subject from the Predicate Nominative Given that case rather than word order determines syntax, if there are two nominatives one of which can be assumed to be a predicate nominative, how do we know which one is the subject and which one is the predicate, and does it matter...

    The Predicate Position If we divide a sentence into two parts, one containing the subject, and one containing the verbal idea, the latter is called the predicate. When the verb is an action verb, the predicate may contain direct objects and indirect objects. As noted in lesson 3, Greek would...

    Notes 1. This objection, raised most forcefully by Harner, assumes a mathematical precision that cannot always be sustained in the pragmatics of language use. While convertible propositions usually signify 100% equivalence between subject and predicate, this need not be the case when they...

    The trinity is false - I have proof

    Colwell himself affirmed that the converse of the rule was as valid as the rule itself, and said that anarthrous pre-verbal PNs would normally be definite (Wallace, p. 259). Like Harner, Dixon considers qualitativeness a semantic force in addition to definiteness and indefiniteness. While...

    The trinity is false - I have proof

    Again the qualitative aspect of the predicate is most prominent; they [the Jews] think that Jesus has the nature or character of one who is "sinner." There is no basis for regarding the predicate as definite, although in this instance we would probably use the indefinite article in English...

    The trinity is false - I have proof

    Zerwick conflates qualitative and indefinite nouns into a single category and places THEOS in John 1:1c in that category: for in the nature of things, the predicate commonly refers not to an individual or individuals as such, but to the class to which the subject belongs, to the nature or...

    Loosely speaking, this study may be said to have increased the definiteness of a predicate noun before the verb without the article, and to have decreased the definiteness of a predicate noun after the verb without the article. The opening verse of John's Gospel contains one of the many...

    "It is necessarily without the article (qeoV not`o qeoV) inasmuch as it describes the nature of the WOrd and does not identify His Person. It would be pure Sebellianism to say 'the Word was o qeoV" (Westcott). "`o qeoV hn`o logoV (convertible terms) would have been pure Sabellianism.... The...
