The Greek Personal pronouns part 3

Brief Summary

In this video, Dr. Oloruntobi Oluwafemi continues the teaching of personal pronouns in Biblical Greek, focusing on third-person personal pronouns, both singular and plural. The lesson incorporates vocabulary and grammatical structures, highlighting specific cases used for these pronouns, such as nominative, genitive, accusative, and dative cases, as well as locative and instrumental.

  • Third-person personal pronouns are introduced with singular and plural forms.
  • Vocabulary relevant to Biblical Greek is taught, including meanings and grammatical usage.

Introduction to Third-Person Personal Pronouns

The lesson begins with greetings and a recap of previous teachings on first and second-person pronouns. Dr. Oluwafemi introduces the topic of third-person personal pronouns, stating that he will cover both singular and plural forms. He plans to incorporate Greek vocabulary into the teaching to enhance learning.

Greek Vocabulary Exploration

Dr. Oluwafemi presents four Greek vocabularies: Paulos (Paul), Petros (Peter), and Tekna (child). He explains that these words will be used when practicing personal pronouns. He emphasises their common occurrence in New Testament Greek and prepares to move into the third-person personal pronouns.

Singular Third-Person Personal Pronouns

In this section, the singular third-person personal pronouns are detailed. Dr. Oluwafemi explains the nominative case and identifies "autos" as the equivalent of "he". He discusses possession using "auto" which translates to "of him" or "his". He further explains the ablative case indicating separation, "auto", meaning "from him", and the dative case, "auto", meaning "to him" or "for him". Each case is clarified with examples related to subjects and possession.

Plural Third-Person Personal Pronouns

Dr. Oluwafemi transitions to plural third-person personal pronouns, still within the masculine gender. He introduces the nominative case, "autoi", meaning "they", and the genitive case, "auton", meaning "of them" or "their". He continues with the ablative case "auton" translating to "from them" and the dative case "autois", which means "to them" or "for them". The locative case "en autois" means "in them", and the instrumental case "autois" translates to "by them". He summarises that the accusative case, "autous", refers to "them".

Future Lessons

Closing the chapter on masculine plural pronouns, Dr. Oluwafemi hints at upcoming lessons where he will address feminine personal pronouns. He also plans to cover neuter pronouns and incorporate exercises to ensure understanding and engagement with the material discussed.

0:00 Shalom aleikhem, welcome to class. We will continue from the teaching of the personal pronouns that we have in Biblical Greek. We have addressed the first person personal pronoun, both the singular and the plural, and also done with the second person personal pronouns. Now, in the class today, I will highlight the third person personal pronouns, both the singular and the plural parts. But before I dive into that teaching proper, I would like to write at least four Greek vocabularies, so as to learn even as we study the personal pronouns.

0:46 So, we will be addressing Paulos, Petros, Tekna. So, we have Paulos, Petros, Tekna. Now, Paulos means Paul in English. That's Paul.

1:34 And we have Petros, which means Peter. It means Peter. We have teknon, which means child, a child. So, this will be seen using You have to I mean attach the article. We have to teknon. We have all petrols. We have all pauls. Loss. So, all of this as soon as we start to put the personal pronouns into uh exercises, all of this will likely be addressed. And having known this,

2:21 these are common words that are found also even in the New Testament Greek. Let's move to the third-person personal pronoun. Now, this will be addressing just like in English, we have he of him or his. Then, in him. And then, to him, for him, and like. So, we have the third-person personal pronoun. Third person. So, the singular part

3:07 on the nominative case, genitive, accusative, and dative first. So, we're going to see for nominative case, we're going to say he or e, rather. It is autos. Autos. That is he. Autos. Then, when we when I'm talking about possession that's

3:54 of him or his. It's written this way. auto auto auto means of him or his of him or his then we have ablative case >> [snorts] >> with the same structure. auto also

4:39 but it means from him. That was from him. That's ablative separation. Because of separation. Then we have dative case. auto That's for dative. auto And auto means to him. That means to him. or for him. To him or for him.

5:24 Now from these four cases we have In the nominative case, we talk about subject I want to say he. That's autos. That's he. Then when I say going back there possession stuff, we have auto which is of him or his his pencil. So, then we have the ablative talking about separation. That's outo from him. And dative talks about to us indirect object. outo outo, which means to him or for him.

6:10 Now let's rub it off and let's move to the other cases. locative instrumental, and then we have the accusative case. So, under the locative case, we have awo to apso and auto means in him. in him We have

6:57 instrumental. We have instrumental talking about auto as well. Which means by him. by him or through him. And finally, we have the accusative case talks about the direct object. That is how ton auto. auto

7:44 him So, we have auto, which means in him. We have auto, which means by him. That's instrumental. And we have auto, which means him. So, these are the third person personal pronouns. singular part. Let's move to the plural part now. plural parts We have nominative, genitive, accusative, and dative side. Now, what we have

8:29 currently running now for the third person, these are for masculine nouns. Yeah. So, because after now, I have to go back to the singular for feminine nouns. Because when we are talking about the personal pronouns for third person, we have three particular genders. We have masculine gender, we have feminine gender, and we have the neuter gender. So, all of these we are doing on this still on the masculine gender. So, we'll be running the feminine after now. So, for neuter uh

9:15 for the nominative case, we have auto. toy autoy And autoy means they. It means they. For genitive case, we have our two. Our two. And our tone means of them. Or their. Their. That's their pencil. Or of them. Their.

10:02 So our tone. Our tone. Okay, let me just put the or on that means it means of them or their. Of them or their. Then we have for the ablative case, same structure. Our tone. That means from them. From them. Finally we have that of dative case, that's the

10:47 indirect object. Having different structure. It means our toys. Our toys. And our toys means you mean It means to them or for them. To them or for them. So, we have our tone. Our toy. Our tone. Our toys.

11:34 Let's move to the other part where we have the locative, the instrumenta, and then we have the accusative case. Now, for locative case, we have out toys, and it means in them, in them. In them. Then the instrumenta parts,

12:21 same structure, out toys, and it means by them, by them or through them. And finally, we have the accusative case, which has a very I mean a different structure, with out tous, out tous. And out tous means them.

13:06 Out tous means them. With this, we have come to the end of the third person personal pronoun for masculine plural nouns. We have out toys, out toys, and out tous. It means in him, in them, by them, at them, them. So, in this class, we are addressing the feminine third person personal pronouns, both uh singular and plural, after which we treat that of neuter. And we have a few exercises.
