Practice by typing the correct answer into the blanks, or by clicking on the correct word in the word bank to send it to the focused input.

1. τίνι προσεκύνει ὁ λεπρός; {τῷ Ἰησοῦ} προσεκύνει ὁ λεπρός.
2. τίς ἐκαθάρισεν τὸν λεπρόν; {ὁ Ἰησοῦς} ἐκαθάρισεν τὸν λεπρόν.
3. ὑπὸ τίνος ἐκαθαρίσθη ἡ λέπρα; ὑπὸ {τοῦ Ἰησοῦ} ἐκαθαρίσθη ἡ λέπρα.

Voice

Voice refers to the active, middle, and passive form and function of verbs. In the present tense, the active forms are the -ω and -μι verbs. The middle forms are the -μαι verbs. There are no passive forms in the present indicative, The passive form are ONLY in the aorist aspect. So passive function in the present tense uses the middle form.

In the past tense there are two aspects: imperfective and perfective (aorist). The imperfect indicatives are the same aspect as the present indicatives, so there are only active and middle forms. However, the aorist indicative has active, middle, and passive forms.

Two weeks ago we looked at the aorist active indicatives. Last week we looked at the imperfect active indicative. Now today you can look over the charts for the nonactive forms of both - middle and passive for the aorist, and middle for the imperfect. Here is the Nonactive Indicatives Chart.

To understand more how voice functions in Greek, read the article about voice.

Below are two sentences, one that uses an active verb and the other a passive verb. Based on context, fill in the blanks with the correct verb forms.

1. {ἐκαθάρισεν} ὁ Ἰησοῦς τὸν ἄνδρα.
2. {ἐκαθαρίσθη} ὁ ἀνὴρ ὑπὸ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ.
