For an Informed Love of God

Chapter 3: Mark 1:1–28

We will meet a new use of the dative called the ”dative of time,” specifically, the ”dative of time when.”

In this verse, we will look at a periphrastic construction and spend a little time in a dictionary.

In v 23 we will learn about the "Preparatory use of 'there.'"

There are several unusual constructions in this verse, and we also meet the infinitive of purpose and nominative of appellation.

The verse is pretty straightforward, but it does contain a good lesson about etymology.

Quite a bit of “stuff” going on in this verse.

A pretty simple verse.
