The theme of my investigation is semantics in the New Testament corpus. My dissertation is part of the larger framework of the research project DGENT “Diccionario Griego-Español del Nuevo Testamento / Greek-Spanish Dictionary of the New Testament”, conducted by GASCO (Group of Semantic Analysis of the University of Cordoba).

The focus of my study is the adverb in Hellenistic Greek, a subject that up to present has received little attention, since most of the studies focus on the morpholexeme in the Classical Greek period only.

In this PhD thesis I employ the methodology developed by Prof. Juan Mateos and Jesús Peláez, whose aim is the study of the vocabulary of the New Testament from a semantic point of view.

Based on a structural analysis, I study the adverb in general with a view to describing the different lemes in particular. This study allows us to distinguish various meanings and to shed light on some New Testament passages whose proper understanding have long been discussed.
