Document Details : Title: Jn 3,3.7: Γεννηθῆναι ἄνωθεν (III) Subtitle: Valeurs locales et sens temporels de l'adverbe ἄνωθεν au cours de la période postclassique Author(s): BOUCHER, Pierre-Marin Journal: Ephemerides Theologicae Lovanienses Volume: 87 Issue: 4 Date: 2011 Pages: 345-373 DOI: 10.2143/ETL.87.4.2149593 Abstract : Is the Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus grounded upon ambiguity or double meaning of the adverb ἄνωθεν (John 3,3.7: to be born desuper, 'from above' / to be born denuo, 'again')? In order to answer the question, the present article analyses and illustrates the various meanings of the term ἄνωθεν in non Palestinian Koine Greek [269 instances] and especially its particular sense denuo during the first centuries AD. |
