I am lost on the Segment 5 Activities: Challenge: Investigating Uses of the Genitive Construction “of Faith”. I can't get the program to follow the instructions given where I am to "read about how other grammarians classify this construction".

  1. I don't know if this will help... I ran an exegetical guide on Romans 1:5. I clicked on the word πιστεως in the passage. (I don't think you have to do that first) I scrolled down and opened the Grammars tab. The readout referenced an article on the Objective Genitive in Robertson (A Grammar of the Greek New Testament in Light of Historical Research). This work isn't organized like a typical grammar, I had to read a chunk of this article to understand what the author was saying. Robertson just called the "of Faith" construction in Rom 1:5 a Subjective Genitive in that article to contrast it with his discussion of the Objective Genitive. The exegetical guide also referenced Wallace (Greek Grammar Beyond the Basics) and Wallace suggested a potential Genitive of Production. That was helpful. Wallace is more specific and precise. Those are the only two grammars that my Logos Exegetical search surfaced. I don't know if those are the only two grammars in my library that reference Romans 1:5.
