Vocabulary for Chapter 17

You have already learned these verbs, but I thought I would show you what each verb looks lke in its different tenses. There is nothing here to memorize (unless you really want to); it is more for the curious among you.

If the tense form does not occur in the Greek Testament, there is a dash. The tense forms are in this order:

• Imperfect (in parenthesis); no dash if not occur in Greek Testament
• Future active/middle
• Aorist active/middle
• Perfect active
• Perfect middle/passive
• Aorist passive (from which is also formed the future passive)
