Lesson 3 | The Third Pass: Arrows

Congratulations!

You’ve Come to the End of the This Mini-Course.
In this course, you have learned the nine different types of phrases and how to properly divide up a passage. From there, we have taught you all about coordinate and subordinate phrases, and particularly highlighted relative and genitive phrases, connecting these all with the proper arrows to make the grammatical structure of a passage visualized with clarity. In doing so, you have been equipped to better recognize the framework by which a passage is being communicated and encouraged to take to heart each and every phrase found in Scripture.
May such hard grammatical study serve your true understanding and legitimate confidence in all the God teaches us in his Word!
