Synopsis

“Giysou, Its Usage And Sense In Holy Scripture, By Herman Heinfetter” is a scholarly tract from 1865 in which Herman Heinfetter argues for a specific grammatical and theological reading of the Greek word Incov. The book undertakes a systematic examination of whether Incov is used as a Dative or a Genitive in the LXX and the New Testament, presenting a sequence of arguments, analyses, and citations, focusing on how the Genitive meaning is required for a precise conveyance of sense. It surveys the LXX occurrences of Incov and then turns to the New Testament where Incov appears in two main forms, arguing that the Genitive reading remains primary and that the Dative interpretation rests on insufficient evidence. The work also analyzes phrases with prepositions and the arrangement of proper names around Incov, including forms such as Xpioros Incov and potential Vocative uses, concluding with a call for careful study of scripture to avoid obscurity in salvation. Though intricate and contested, the tract contributes to 19th-century debates on Greek grammar and biblical interpretation.
