Editorial Reviews
Review
“…all the new material is very fully and clearly explained . . . so much so that I had hopes that a motivated student would be able to continue on his own . . . there are a very large number of drills and practice sentences…” ― ―New England Classical Newsletter

“This is a text of such wonderful clarity that it is a delight for both student and instructor.”—―Lydia Lenaghan, Columbia University, Emerita

“Unlike other traditional books, it does not presume a previous knowledge of another inflected language; all the explanations necessary to understand Greek are contained within the book itself.” ― ―Languages and Literature

Θεός

ος is the masculine nominative case ending

Therefore the root word is θέ

The

This seems to be common mischief amongst the ancient languages. It takes the word God from another language and turns it into a common word as a conjunction or article.

The Hebrew converted the word EL. The LXX converted the word κύριος. The 1st century Greeks apparently converted the word Χριστός Χρήστος into being a slang word for “slave.” The Arabic converted the Greek word αλλά. The English converts the Greek word θε:θεός into The.

A columnar grave monument for a slave named Apollonios. Hellenistic or Roman period. Athenian Agora Excavations. ΑΠΟΛΛΩΝΙΟΣ ΧΡΗΣΤΟΣ ** you do not have permission to see this link **
