Hi Jonathan
I tried to access http://sunsite.unc.edu/bgreek/archives
it looks very professional and works fine, but due to
the telephone lines in some countries it would take me
several days to access it properly.

I would be very grateful if someone could just say in
a word (off b-greek if it is considered clutter) where
if anywhere there lies a comprehensive list of Greek
and/or Aramaic puns in the NT. I am thinking of word
games like KAQAIRW and KAQAROS in John 15:2-3 that only
make sense in one of the two languages.

Mari - could Porter help me here?
