Three Nuances of the Perfect Indicative in the Greek New Testament

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Hanbyul Kang’s work on the Greek perfect is helpful to student and scholar alike. Surveying recent and past views of the perfect in Greek, Kang critiques and analyzes each view. Then he offers his own understanding of the Greek perfect in three general categories: Resultative-Stative (a present state implied from the past), Anterior/Current Relevance (a current relevance resulting from past events), and Perfect as Simple Past (preterite). Kang’s work is clear and compelling.”
