Constantine R. Campbell continues the work begun in his previous volume Verbal Aspect the
Indicative Mood and Narrative: Soundings in the Greek of the New Testament. In this book he
investigates the function of verbal aspect in non-indicative Greek verbs which are of great
significance for the translation and exegesis of Biblical texts. Campbell demonstrates that the
model developed in his first volume provides strong power of explanation for the workings of
non-indicative verbs and challenges some of the conclusions reached by previous scholarship.
